Can I use Load cell to sense the dumpers weight ? Dumper weight is totally 25-30 tons.

You will need to use more than one load cell, preferably four of.

My car uses four of these : **broken link removed**

One by each wheel, between the chassis and each axle. They provide a signal that it is computed for self-levelling and could tell the load on the suspension if calibrated for known values.

You have niot stated the weight of the truck and/or max tonnage of the hauled load.
