AND LCB-05K150 Compact Single Point Load Cell

AND LCB-05K150 Compact Single Point Stainless Steel Load Cell

The AND LCB-05K150 is a high-performance, compact single-point load cell engineered for demanding industrial weighing applications. Constructed entirely from stainless steel and featuring a hermetically sealed enclosure, this sensor is built to deliver exceptional precision and long-term reliability in harsh environments, including those requiring frequent washdowns. With a substantial rated capacity of 150 kilograms-force, it is the ideal solution for medium-to-heavy-duty platform scales where accuracy, durability, and resistance to environmental factors are critical.

Detailed Product Description

The LCB-05K150 is designed as a robust force sensor that translates a mechanical force (weight) into an electrical signal. Its single-point design allows for a platform to be placed directly on it without the need for complex lever systems, simplifying installation and ensuring accurate readings even when loads are placed off-center. The core of its durability is its fully welded stainless steel construction, which hermetically seals the internal strain gauges from the external environment. This makes it impervious to moisture, dust, and corrosive agents, guaranteeing a long operational lifespan. Pre-calibrated from the factory, it ensures uniform response across the entire surface of platforms up to 400mm x 400mm, providing consistent and repeatable measurements for industrial automation, process control, and legal-for-trade weighing systems.

Key Features & Operational Benefits

• All-Stainless-Steel Hermetic Seal: Provides complete protection against humidity, water, and dust, making it suitable for food processing, chemical, and outdoor applications where exposure to corrosive elements is a concern.

• IP67 Environmental Protection Rating: Certified to be dust-tight and capable of withstanding immersion in water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. This ensures reliable operation in wet or dusty industrial settings.

• Optimized for Large Platforms: Supports platform sizes up to 400 x 400 millimeters, making it suitable for industrial bench scales, floor scales, and other large-surface weighing systems.

• High Overload Tolerance: Built with a robust safety margin, it can withstand loads up to 150% of its rated capacity (225 kgf) without suffering permanent damage or calibration shift.

• Stable & Reliable Output: Engineered for minimal signal drift over time and across temperature fluctuations, ensuring trustworthy data for critical weighing processes.
