Low profile load cells are basically compression and tension/compression load cells. Mounting holes and female threads provide easy installation. Used frequently in weighing research and in-line force monitoring.
The LCHD is also available in metric configurations, with ranges from 0-2.5 to 0-10,000 kgf and metric threads. Please see the LCMHD for complete details, or contact our Pressure department for more information.

LCHD-25 load cell
very dependable unit which runs 24/7. small, compact, easy to mount.
Date published: 2020-12-30
What is the maximum allowable torque due to side load on the load cell, while measuring compression load?
It sounds like what you are looking for is the maximum allowable bending moment due to a side load. Although it may vary depending on the load cell capacity most ranges should be able to handle 25% of capacity in inch pounds. For example, a LCHD-2k, with a capacity of 2000 pounds, would be able to withstand a bending moment of 500 inch pounds. I hope this answers your question but if not I would suggest that you call and speak directly with one of the engineers in the Pressure and Strain department.

Where can I find thread information for the tension plates? Or specifically this tension plate LCHD-TP488
We are emailing you a link to the engineering control drawing for the LCHD tension plates. LCHD-TP488 is the 20,000 to 50,000 lb version

In the load button scenario, imagine I bolted a plate on top of the load cell and used the threads in the center of LC. In this case, the result would be different if the force were applied at the center of the plate versus 20 mm away from the center.
Off-center loading will effect the reading of the load cell
Date published: 2024-06-21
Is there any way to calculate the effect? I mean, if I am off by about +/- 7 mm from the center, how can I find the correct load? Is there a graph available to see the relationship between the off-center load and the load reading?
There is not formula to exact how much error in the reading you would see for a given offset.

Are your LCHD load cells calibrated and do they come with certs?
Hello, our load cells are calibrated and they will come with a 5 point NIST traceable cal cert.

What is the difference between operating temperature and compensated temperature? I'm looking to use this load cell outdoors and on a cold morning it might be below 60F. Do I need to pay for the extended temperature range?
The operating temperature range of a load cell is the temperature range within which the load cell can operate and produce accurate and reliable measurements. Operating temperature is a critical parameter because it affects the load cell's internal components. The compensated temperature of a load cell is the range of temperatures in which the load cell can provide accurate readings after compensating for the temperature effect. This compensation process involves adjusting the output of the load cell to account for the changes in temperature. The typical effect of operating the load cell outside it's compensated temperature is a shift in output value. The load cell output will remain within its rated accuracy specifications (linearity, repeatability & hysteresis) between zero and span.

The result would differ if the force were applied exactly at the center versus 15 mm away from the center.
The loading point of the LCHD load cells is the threads in the center hole. Load must be applied by the use of either a load button (compression loading) or a rod end (tension loading).
