If you need flexibility in your applications, the DFS II Series with non-dedicated remote load cells is the answer. As is the case with the dedicated load cells, the gauge may be handheld our remotely mounted and the load cell may be placed right where it needs to be to take the reading. However, this configuration also gives the user the flexibility of having interchangeable load cells that may be used with a single gauge.
