Rice Lake Weighing Systems RL20000B-5K Load Cell

Rice Lake RL20000B-5K Load Cell is a 5,000-pound capacity S‑beam load cell from Rice Lake Weighing Systems. Designed as the sensing element in industrial weighing applications, it is commonly used in platform scales, weigh modules, and related systems that require a robust high‑capacity sensor. The RL20000B-5K is part of Rice Lake’s RL20000 family of load cells and is documented in Rice Lake manuals as the RL20000B-5K variant (for example in the TradeRoute HL Series Operation Manual). In practice, this model is paired with Rice Lake indicators, controllers, and data‑collection solutions to form a complete weigh system, delivering reliable weight measurements for bulk materials, batches, and process weighing tasks. When selecting a replacement or planning a new scale, the 5,000‑lb capacity of the RL20000B-5K makes it suitable for heavier payloads common in manufacturing and distribution environments, while maintaining compatibility with Rice Lake’s ecosystem of weigh modules and accessories.
