from 25 grams to 150 pounds
The load cell selection below shows low capacity load cells used in parts counting scales, checkweighing, medical testing, and wind tunnel testing. In our Electronics section we carry a wide range of weighing electronics that can be used with our load cells such as digital displays, analog and digital output signal conditioners, wireless load cell interfaces, and load cell or computer systems.
All Low Capacity Load Cells
Moment Compensated Single Point Load Cell - ESP4
The LCC-ESP4 load cell is designed for electronic bench and platform scales, medical scales, and any application where a low profile load cell design is a must. Low in cost and suitable for a wide variety of OEM and force measurement applications, the LCC-ESP4 load cell is readily available in large or small quantities.
Single Point Load Cell - GCB3
Load Cell Central's GCB3 low profile off-center load cell is designed for weighing platforms, hanging scales, bench scales, and many other low capacity beam applications. The GCB3 is constructed of anodized aluminum and is environmentally sealed against moisture and humidity.
Stainless Steel Single Point Load Cell - GCB3
The GCB3-SS low cost, low profile off center* load cell is designed for harsh environments it is manufactured from stainless steel and sealed to IP67. This load cell is ideal for wash down areas such as are found in the food, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries.
Stainless Steel Hermetically Sealed Single Point - STSP1
The LCC-STSP1 load cell is designed for harsh environments and high accuracy applications, with a combined error of 0.017% FS it is the most accurate load cell of its type on the market.
S-Type - XTS4
Load Cell Central's XTS4 S-type load cell is a versatile unit designed for use in either tension or compression. Constructed of a plated alloy steel, the combined error including the effects of non-linearity and hysteresis is less than0.02% of the sensor's capacity.
Premium S-Type Load Cell Tension and Compression
Load Cell Central's JQRT premium S-type load cell is designed for the test measurements market. The load cell is constructed of aluminum in the lower capacities 50 to 1,000 pounds, and capacities from 2,000 to 5,000 pounds are stainless steel.
S-Beam Stainless Steel Hermetically Sealed - XLS2-HSS
Load Cell Central's XLS2-HSS is a stainless steel and hermetically sealed S-Type load cell which can be used in either tension or compression applications. Applications include but not limited to tensile testing, crane scales, vessel weighing, and batching processes. This model is ideal for outdoor and severe industrial environments.
Hermetically Sealed Bending Beam - HBBG
The HBBG load cell is designed for harsh industrial applications such as food, chemical, & pharmaceutical industries. The strain gage area and electronic components are covered by the stainless steel bellows to provide an IP68 protection class rating.
Single Ended Bending Beam - SBSA
Load Cell Central's model LCC-SBSA is designed for multiple load cell applications such as medium and low capacity vessel weighing applications and bagging scales. Suitable for washdown applications, the LCC-SBSA is constructed of a nickel plated high alloy tool steel.
Sub-Miniature Button Type - VLPB
Load Cell Central's Model LCC-VLPB low profile load cell is designed to measure load ranges from 50 grams to 1000 lbs. With subminiature dimensions, including diameters from .38" to 0.75" and heights of .13" to 0.25", these force transducers are easily incorporated into systems having limited space.
Stainless Steel Miniature Button Type - LCSC
Load Cell Central's Model LCSC miniature load cells are bonded foil strain gage transducers designed for low cost production and testing applications (e.g. press calibration). Engineered for compression force measurements up to 50,000 lbs., this model achieves a maximum non-linearity of 0.2% full scale. Precision gaging techniques and stainless steel construction provide excellent long-term stability and reliability under severe operating conditions.
Stainless Steel Thru Hole Type - SCD
Load Cell Central's Model SCD Donut Shaped Load Cell features a smooth thru-hole design perfect for applications which require the load structure to pass directly through the cell. Such applications include bolt force measurements, clamping forces, and monitoring overloads. Load ranges as low as 150 grams and as great as 30,000 pounds can be measured within a maximum full scale non-linearity and hysteresis of 0.5% F.S. These models are used in compression applications and are available in multiple hole sizes.
Universal Shear Web - SRP
Load Cell Central's pancake compression and tension load cell model LCC-SRP has unlimited uses for industrial applications. Mounting using the outer bolt hole circle, the cell is center-loaded in either direction. Compression load button available. Optional base recommended for tension applications. Featuring stainless steel construction, this load cell is suitable for the harshest of environments and is resistant to extraneous bending and side load errors.
Aluminum Construction Tension & Compression - CTD
Load Cell Central's low-profile LCC-CTD, with its height of 1" for all capacities, is ideal for "straight through" tension weighing applications in confined areas where height is a factor. Its quality engineered aluminum construction, black anodized coating, and tenacious cable and instrumentation potting provide corrosion resistance and protection in hostile environments.
Stainless Steel Dual Stud Tension & Compression - HTC
Load Cell Central's LCC-HTC Dual Stud Mount load cell is supplied with a stud at each end for easy in-line mounting in ranges from 50 lbs. through 10,000 lbs. These load cells are highly accurate and manufactured from heat treated 17-4PH stainless steel.
Mini-Gram Beam - SLCB/LCBF
Load Cell Central's beam type gram load cell models LCC-SLCB (semiconductor gages, 25-1000 grams) and LCC-LCBF (foil strain gages) are engineered to measure very low bending forces and still achieve an impressive 0.1% full scale non-linearity and hysteresis. Built-in overload stops are incorporated to provide additional reliability. Miniature dimensions allow easy unit integration into existing systems.
