S-Beam Load Cells LSB352

The FUTEK LSB352 is a high-capacity, rugged S-Beam load cell designed for precision tension and compression measurements. Crafted from 17-4 PH stainless steel, and with both female threads, this sensor is ideal for platforms, scales, silo weighing, and industrial applications where accuracy, durability, and robust performance are essential.

Key Features & Benefits of the S-Beam Load Cells LSB 352

  • High Capacity in Tension & Compression – Available in 500 lb and 1,000 lb capacities to handle heavy loads while maintaining accuracy.

  • High Precision & Low Error – Nonlinearity and hysteresis are both ± 0.05% of rated output (RO); non-repeatability is ± 0.01%.

  • 3 mV/V Output & 350 Ω Bridge – Strong signal, compatible with most instrumentation setups.

  • Robust Construction & Material – 17-4 PH stainless steel body with female ½-20-2B threads on both ends.

  • Wide Temperature Range – Operating from approx –40°F (-40°C) to +200°F (~93°C), with compensated temperature ranges of ~60-160°F (≈15-72°C).

  • Good Overload Protection – Safe overload is approximately 500% of RO, protecting the sensor from accidental force spikes.

  • Solid Signal Conditioning Options – Includes 5 ft 28 AWG 6-conductor shielded polyurethane cable; some variants with connector version (4-pin LEMO) for easier connection / modular setup.

When purchasing an LSB352, consider these to ensure you get the right variant:

  1. Choose the required capacity (500 lb or 1,000 lb) ensuring expected load plus overhead.

  2. Decide on connector type vs cable version (e.g. 5 ft cable vs 4-pin LEMO) based on mounting / access.

  3. Confirm thread type (½-20-2B threads are standard) fits your mounting hardware.

  4. Consider environment (temperature, moisture, shock) to ensure you select correct variant or protective measures.

  5. Check whether you need calibration certification (5-point tension standard; compression available) or optional TEDS version.
