Supported Applications
The Omega LCM203 Series comprises high-accuracy, miniature, low-profile industrial load cells designed for tension and compression measurement. These dual stud mount style sensors feature a hermetically sealed stainless steel construction suitable for most industrial weighing applications. The series is engineered for use in test stands and difficult locations where space constraints require a compact package.
Operating Conditions & Performance
The LCM203 Series operates within an ambient temperature range of -46 to 107°C (-50 to 225°F), with thermal compensation provided for the 16 to 71°C (60 to 160°F) span. The sensors are rated IP65 and feature a deflection between 0.025 to 0.075 mm (0.001 to 0.003"). Performance specifications include linearity of ±0.15% FSO, hysteresis of ±0.1% FSO, and repeatability of ±0.05% FSO. The series supports a measurement range from 100 N to 50,000 N (22 lb to 11,241 lb) across various capacities.
Electrical performance is defined by an excitation voltage of 10 Vdc with a maximum of 15 Vdc. The output signal is specified as 2 mV/V ±1.0%. Input resistance is 350 Ω minimum, and output resistance is 350 ±10 Ω. Overload ratings are defined as Safe Overload at 150% of capacity and Ultimate Overload at 300% of capacity.
Configuration Options
The series offers configurable options for mounting, electrical connection, and accessories to accommodate specific installation requirements. Key capabilities include:
- Housing & Mounting: Dual Stud Mount Style with a 51 mm (2") diameter body.
- Thread Configurations: Metric models feature M12 x 1.75 threads on both ends, while standard inch models utilize ½-20 UNF threads.
- Cable & Connector Options: Standard units include a 3 m (10') 4-conductor shielded PVC cable. The LC213/LCM213 variants support the PT06F10-6S mating connector or CA-4PC24-2-015 cable assembly with twist-lock connector.
- Accessories: Rod ends are available as REC-012F for LC203/LC213 series and MREC-M12F for LCM203/LCM213 series load cells.
Key Product Differences
The product line distinguishes between standard inch models (LC203) and metric models (LCM203), as well as cable-equipped versions versus connector-ready variants. The LC213/LCM213 series designates units configured for the PT06F10-6S mating connector rather than a fixed cable.
Thread dimensions vary by model family: A threads measure 19 mm (0.75") in length, while B threads are 17 mm (0.69"). The series provides capacities ranging from 25 lb to 10,000 lb for inch models and 100 N to 50,000 N for metric models. All units include a 5-point calibration in tension at 0%, 50%, 100%, 50%, and 0% of capacity.
