LMP Stainless Steel Load Measuring Load Pin

  • Ranges 500kg to 1500tonne
  • Stainless Steel Construction
  • Environmentally Sealed to IP67 (IP68 can also be offered)
  • Anti-rotation plate supplied, if required
  • Many special design options available
  • Can be supplied with integral connector
  • Versions available with integral signal conditioning; providing 0-10v, 0-5v, 4-20mA, RS485 outputs
  • Versions available to meet Offshore and Marine specifications
  • Application/Technical Sheet & design support Software available

The Micron range of Load Measurement Pins are designed for general use. They are machined from high tensile stainless steel and are normally supplied complete with an anti-rotation plate.

They are built to exacting standards and are suitable for use in exposed situations and can be supplied to withstand immersion in seawater.

This range of load cells is Proof Loaded to 150% of the normal rated load.

We offer a standard range of pins, covering the ranges between 0.5tonne to 1500tonne. However the nature of this style of product means that most pins are manufactured to meet customers' specific dimensional requirements.

The LMP range can be supplied as shown in this datasheet or can be modified to meet a particular application requirement. We are always pleased to discuss any special requirements that can be accommodated. The LMP series can be supplied on it's own or combined with our extensive range of instrumentation to provide a complete load monitoring system.
