MV-LC0049 Cantilever Beam Load Cell with Counterbored Fixings

METRAVON MV-LC0049 is a cantilever beam load cell whose fixing features include paired recessed openings at the cable end. The available outline is 130 mm long and identifies a separate load-end opening. Those features need different mating parts and functions. For a low-profile frame, check both fastener-head clearance and the force contact; a beam that physically fits beneath the structure can still be restrained or loaded incorrectly.

Check the counterbored fixings without assuming screw size or length

The reference section calls out two diameter-19 recesses above two diameter-13 openings, with a 13 mm vertical recess reference. The plan gives a 26 mm centre spacing for the paired fixing positions. Confirm the fastener head, washers if required, mating-plate thickness and permitted engagement against the selected assembly. Hole diameter does not specify fastening torque. A screw head or washer contacting a recess shoulder incorrectly can change how the fixed end is seated even before the scale carries material.

Separate the cantilever beam load cell contact from its fixing positions

The load end is shown with a diameter-13 opening, a 12 mm end offset and 76 mm spacing to the nearer fixing centre. The plan-width reference is 31 mm and overall body length 130 mm. No thread is identified at that load-end opening. Obtain the approved pin, head or other contact detail rather than treating it as an M13 attachment. Show the direction of the intended reaction and any part that retains or guides the moving structure.

Leave the underside relief and cable end free of unwanted contacts

The section includes a relieved lower portion. A continuous bed, packing strip or guard that reaches into that region can become another support as force is applied. Submit a section through the real base and load fitting, not only a top-view hole pattern. Reserve cable exit and removal space at the fixed end. The reference lists 6 m of cable, but that length does not define a permissible tight bend or establish that a longer extension may be added without checking the measurement channel.

Choose the rated version and verify the actual weighing channel

The technical range is written as 0-5 t, with no capacity-specific series of outline rows on this sheet. Request the selected rated drawing and sensitivity record. Bridge output is 2.0 +/-0.002 mV/V at 10-12 V DC excitation, with 380 +/-5 ohms input and 350 +/-1 ohm output resistance. Use delivered terminal identification to resolve the inconsistent reference colour and circuit polarity. Compare reference weights after the final fixings, head and cable route are complete; an electrical zero adjustment is not a substitute for seating the fixed end correctly.

Keep the published limits separate from whole-frame acceptance

Precision is listed at 0.05% FS, with temperature effect 0.05% FS per 10 deg C and compensation from -10 to +65 deg C. The operating-temperature entry extends from -40 to +85 deg C, without establishing equal measurement performance over that wider interval. Safe load is 150% FS and protection is IP68 subject to the actual exposure conditions. Define the useful weight range, load positions and allowable installed readings independently. The beam specification does not supply impact performance for the attached frame or a strength rating for an unconfirmed contact fitting.

For MV-LC0049, provide the rated capacity, fixing-head and base section, load-end contact, cable route and required installed weight checks.
