Supported Applications
The Omega LC8300 Series consists of compact, through-hole compression load cells designed for measuring compressive forces. The series is engineered with a low profile and rugged industrial design suitable for applications including clamping forces and bolt loading.
Operating Conditions & Performance
The LC8300 operates within an ambient temperature range of 16 to 71°C (60 to 160°F) and a process temperature range of -54 to 121°C (-65 to 250°F). The load cells feature a nominal output signal of 2 mV/V with an excitation voltage requirement of 10 Vdc, up to a maximum of 15V. Performance specifications include an accuracy class of ±0.5% FSO and repeatability of ±0.1% FSO.
Thermal effects are specified as Zero: ±0.009% FSO/°C and Span: ±0.018% FSO/°C, with a zero balance tolerance of ±2.0% FSO. Each unit is supplied complete with 5-point NIST-traceable calibration data and includes 59 kΩ shunt data.
Physical Dimensions
- Overall Height (H): 25.4 mm (1.00")
- Outer Diameter (OD): 76.3 mm (3.00")
Configuration Options
The LC8300 series offers a wide selection of configurations defined by capacity and inside diameter (ID). The load cells are constructed from 17-4 PH stainless steel housing material.
Capacity Ranges
- Imperial: 0 to 1,000 lb through 0 to 100,000 lb
- Metric: 0 to 455 kgf through 0 to 45,372 kgf
Selectable Inside Diameters (ID)
The series supports selectable inside diameters ranging from 0.250" to 1.50", allowing integration into existing mechanical assemblies with specific bore requirements.
- Available ID sizes include: 0.250", 0.375", 0.500", 0.625", 0.750", 0.875", 0.938", 1.00", 1.13", 1.25", 1.38", and 1.50".
Electrical Connection & Compliance
- Cable: Includes a 1.5 m (5') 4-conductor shielded cable.
- Wire Color Code: Green (+Output), White (-Output), Black (-Input), Red (+Input).
- Approvals: NIST and RoHS compliant.
Key Product Differences
The LC8300 model number follows the format LC8300-[ID CODE]-[K], where [ID CODE] corresponds to the selected inside diameter (e.g., 750 for 0.750") and [K] represents the capacity in thousands of pounds or kilograms.
Variations are distinguished by their specific combination of ID size and load range, with availability dependent on the intersection of these parameters as defined in the series specification tables. Metric configurations are available upon consultation with engineering.
