LCB500 Tension & Compression Load Cell

The LCB500 Tension & Compression Load Cell, part of the USB Sensor Solution Line, offers USB output and eliminates the need for an analog amplifier, power supply, and display equipment. The plug and play gives you power to monitor the output of the sensor and enjoy measurement and are less affected by noise, temperature variation, or power supply requirement. The USB integration also includes USB Software, which allows users to monitor the output of the Sensor in real time. This model is available in Stainless Steel construction and features a compact rugged design. The LCB500 is machined from a single block of metal, so the primary sensing element, the mountings, and the case contain no welds allowing smaller dimensions and an enhanced grade of protection. The configuration of the point of measurement reduces errors caused by imperfect application of the load. Typical applications of load cells connected in parallel are: silos, hoppers, large weighing platforms, and with suitable accessories, suspended loads. The stainless steel construction is suitable for use in aggressive environments in the chemical and petrochemical industries.
