Performance highlights LPB Custom designed stainless steel load measuring pin
The LPB Series load pins are engineered for precision and durability in tough environments. Designed to replace existing load-bearing pins, they provide accurate force measurement without major equipment modifications. Built from high-tensile stainless steel, each pin is proof-loaded to 150% of its rated capacity and tailored to specific installation requirements.
Usage conditions
Ideal for use in marine, offshore, industrial, and hazardous zones, the LPB series offers ATEX certifications (Ex d and Ex i), high insulation resistance (>500MΩ @ 500vdc), and operational temperature ranges from -20°C to +70°C. Submersible and subsea versions are available.
