Load pin LE Series

Magtrol Load Measuring Pins are used to measure load and force, and provide overload protection. The pins are mounted into machines in place of normal shafts and fitted with strain gauges, allowing them to produce a signal proportional to the measured load. Manufactured in Switzerland, Magtrol’s LESeries Load Measuring Pins are rugged with high resistance stainless steel and tight construction. Available in several standard ranges from 2.5kN to 1250kN, their operation remains trouble-free and reliable even in electromagnetically difficult environmental conditions. When forces acting on mechanical constructions are measured, the additional equipment required can often be costly and difficult to install. Magtrol Load Measuring Pins offer an excellent solution since they act as a direct element in the assembly, replacing a non-instrumented pin or shaft. LE Series Load Measuring Pins are used for measuring loads and overload protection on cranes, hoisting gear, elevators and winches. The integrated electronics makes them ideal for applications in which separate signal conditioning is difficult to install and where the monitoring electronics are positioned at extended distances.
