L6D Single Point Load Cell

Smallest single point cell in the range, 2.5 kg to 50 kg on a 250 x 350 mm platform.

Product Overview

The L6D is the low capacity end of the single point family, covering 2.5 kg to 50 kg on platforms up to 250 x 350 mm. It is the cell behind counter pricing scales and small bench scales, where the deck is compact and the division has to be fine enough for retail selling.

Key Benefits

  • Capacity from 2.5 kg for fine division retail and laboratory bench builds
  • Compact 250 x 350 mm maximum platform keeps counter scales small
  • Anodised aluminium with silicon adhesive sealing for kitchen and counter conditions
  • Two bridge resistance options, 350 ohm and 1000 ohm class

Problems It Solves

  • Cells oversized for small retail capacities, wasting resolution
  • Corner errors on compact decks built around the wrong cell
  • Bridge resistance mismatch with low power battery indicators

Who It Is For

  • Counter and pricing scale manufacturers

Materials And Construction

  • Anodised aluminium body

Customisation Options

  • Accuracy class C3D, C3 or C3G
  • 350 ohm or 1000 ohm bridge resistance
  • Capacity selected from the published range

Use Guide

  • Keep the platform within 250 x 350 mm or corner error will exceed the published figure
  • Mount on a rigid machined block so the deck does not flex under off centre load
  • Choose the 1000 ohm version where a battery powered indicator needs lower bridge current

Certification

  • OIML R60 C3
Comparison

How It Compares

Compared with alternatives in this catalogue
L6N single point cellThe L6N covers 3 kg to 100 kg on a 400 x 400 mm platform and is aimed at electronic balances. The L6D is the smaller deck option for counter and pricing scales.
L6E single point cellThe L6E starts at 50 kg with a 400 x 400 mm platform. Use the L6D below 50 kg or where the deck must stay compact.

Questions Buyers Ask

L6D Single Point Load Cell Questions

What is the smallest capacity available?

2.5 kg, which suits fine division retail and laboratory bench builds.

What happens if my platform is larger than 250 x 350 mm?

Corner error grows beyond the published 0.02 percent per 100 mm figure. Step up to the L6E, L6E3 or L6T depending on deck size.

Which bridge resistance should I order?

350 ohm for standard mains powered indicators, 1000 ohm class where battery life matters.
