Additional Details

The LC302-100 load cell utilizes strain gauge technology to measure force. Strain gauges are bonded to a precisely machined metal element, and when force is applied, the element deforms, causing the strain gauges to change resistance. This change in resistance is measured by a Wheatstone bridge circuit, which produces an output voltage proportional to the applied force. The stainless steel construction provides excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical strength. The rugged design ensures reliable operation in demanding industrial environments.
