Submersible Miniature S-Beam Jr. Load Cell

S-beam load cells are known for their performance and versatility. They can be hooked up to a variety of load cell amplifiers (signal conditioning) to integrate with a PLC, DAQ or a local indicator. Each S-Type Load Cell has a threaded hole at each end, making it a very flexible solution. Different accessories can be added to the S beam load cell to add an extra degree of utility or accuracy, depending on your requirements. The threaded hole can also be fitted to a threaded bar, eyebolt, or rod end bearing depending on the manufacturer and the purpose for which the load cell is to be used. 

Benefits of S Type Load Cells:

• High Capacity and low capacity options - 10 grams up to 10,000 lbs;
• Tension and Compression Applications;
• Compact designs suitable for tight environments;
• Available in both Anodized Aluminum 2024-T4 and Stainless Stell 17-4 PH S.S;
• Available with TEDS / IEEE1451.4 option;
• Several cables Configurations;
• Metric and Imperial Threads available.

FUTEK offers a highly accurate and versatile range S-Type load cells with robust overload protection, unique capabilities, and a capacity range from 10 grams (LSB200 Miniature S Beam Load Cell) up to 10,000 lbs (LSB400 S Beam Tension and Compression Load Cell). While FUTEK’s S Type Load Cell is suitable for a wide array of applications from manufacturing to the medical industry, we specialize in force sensors with an extremely compact profile that is ideal for load cell applications that require a miniature-sized footprint.

Applications for S Type Load Cell:

• Hanging Scales, Hopper scales, Crane Scales
• Mechanical overload protection
• Structural performance testing
• Automotive component lifecycle
• Structural performance testing and measurement on automotive systems such as doors, hoods and trunks
• Industrial control / force control loop feedback
• Tank weighing
• Material strain testing of polymers and elastomers
• Dynamometer testing machines
• Center of Gravity Scale

The entire FUTEK S-beam load cell product line is manufactured in the US and uses metal foil strain gauge weight measurement technology. The models can be modified or customized to meet your requirements and most capacities are in our inventory, making them available for 24-hour shipping.
