A shear beam load cell price should identify the exact capacity group and its mating hardware. On METRAVON MV-LC0150, increasing the rating can change the body length, fixing centres and loading thread. A cheaper offer for the wrong group may require changes to the scale rather than a straightforward replacement.
Three MV-LC0150 drawing groups to distinguish
The MV-LC0150 product drawing separates the following sizes. Use these dimensions to identify which full drawing is needed, not as a complete fabrication specification.
| Capacity group | Length and fixing centres | Loading connection |
|---|---|---|
| 0.25-2.5 t options | 133.4 mm length; 25.4 mm fixing-hole spacing. | M12 x 1.75 loading thread. |
| 3 / 5 / 7.5 t | 171.5 mm length; 38.1 mm fixing-hole spacing. | M20 x 2.5 loading thread. |
| 10 t | 222.2 mm length; 50.8 mm fixing-hole spacing. | M24 x 2 loading thread. |
State the actual rated option within the first group; it is not a continuously adjustable capacity range. Check hole diameters, installed height and the shape of the loading contact on the selected drawing. A correct thread designation alone does not confirm the foot height or permissible movement.
Shear beam load cell price should separate the sensor from the assembly
List the cell, foot or connector, mounting plate, fasteners and cable provision as separate order items. Mark existing parts that will be reused. Their condition and dimensions still need review; an old foot that fits the thread may have worn contact surfaces or an unsuitable installed height.
For a one-cell replacement, submit the other cells' identification and the indicator details. MV-LC0150 is a four-wire bridge sensor. The final cable route and any extension affect the installation, so do not compare offers with different cable arrangements as if they were identical components.
Budget for verification after installation
Allow access to inspect the mounts and repeat position and span checks. Record whether lifting equipment, temporary supports and test loads are provided by the installer or site. These are project costs, not properties of the sensor, and should not disappear inside an unspecified installation allowance.
Q1. Is a higher-capacity version a drop-in upgrade?
Only if the mechanical and electrical review establishes compatibility. The dimensions above show why that cannot be presumed. The deck and restraints must also be checked; changing one rating does not uprate the whole scale.
Q2. Can the photograph be used to order the foot?
No. Identify the part and dimensioned assembly in the offer. An illustration can show available arrangements without defining which one is supplied or how it mates with the existing platform.
Summary
Request an MV-LC0150 replacement quotation with the rating, full mounting drawing and retained parts clearly marked. For position-dependent errors, consult the corner-reading diagnostic guide before ordering a new cell.
