The single point and platform load cells are able to weigh correctly within an area specified on the datasheet.
For example, using a cell guaranteed for an area of 400 by 400 millimetres, we are certain that, by applying a weight force at any point of a structure of such dimensions, the weight detected will be correct.
By installing a structure of larger dimensions than those indicated on the datasheet or by applying an object that protrudes out of the structure, the single point load cells may be damaged and in any case an incorrect weight value is obtained.
