Compression load cell LPX series

button typestrain gaugeweighing

The LPX is a popular general-purpose mini disk load cell. It’s a unique design, the whole upper section is turned in a continuous process leaving the cell with an impervious upper section. A true mini disk, the 100kg capacity is 22mm high and the 50,000kg/50t capacity only 55mm. The LPX has a high level of protection with an IP67 rating. All electronic components are housed through the bottom of the load cell and further mechanical protection is available by simply bolting the load cell to a flat surface. Ideal for hostile environments, the LPX is constructed of tool steel and finished in a corrosion resistant coating. Suitable for most industrial weighing projects; tanks, hoppers and silo installations in particular.
