Low profile load cells are basically compression and tension/compression load cells. Mounting holes and female threads provide easy installation. Used frequently in weighing research and in-line force monitoring.

The LCHD is also available in metric configurations, with ranges from 0-2.5 to 0-10,000 kgf and metric threads. Please see the LCMHD for complete details, or contact our Pressure department for more information.

Do you sell a device that connects to and digitally reads the output?

Asked by: Maroon
Yes, Our IN-USBH will convert the 3 mV/V analog signal from the load cell to a high speed USB output

Can I operate the load cell in a vacuum?

Asked by: Garett
Hi, you cannot use the LCHD series load cells in vacuum due to out-gassing issues. We nonetheless, can customize the load cell by drilling a hole through the body till the region where strain gauges are adhered and vacuum the air inside the load cell. You must then be able to use it. This will be a custom part. If you would like please provide the load range and email our Tech Support engineer back for a quote. Thanks.

What is the difference between operating temperature and compensated temperature? I'm looking to use this load cell outdoors and on a cold morning it might be below 60F. Do I need to pay for the extended temperature range?

Asked by: spri
The operating temperature range of a load cell is the temperature range within which the load cell can operate and produce accurate and reliable measurements. Operating temperature is a critical parameter because it affects the load cell's internal components. The compensated temperature of a load cell is the range of temperatures in which the load cell can provide accurate readings after compensating for the temperature effect. This compensation process involves adjusting the output of the load cell to account for the changes in temperature. The typical effect of operating the load cell outside it's compensated temperature is a shift in output value. The load cell output will remain within its rated accuracy specifications (linearity, repeatability & hysteresis) between zero and span.
