I want to install loadcell in a crane to measure bucket weight. Bucket hanging about 30m from a crane and fill with very hot material. I am thinking in place the loadcell on the crane side. What is the best loadcell type for this application?

 

You can use a load cell on one of the bolts to measure weight. Try this search:
