Frequently asked questions
Common questions about OMEGA from 3G Electric.
What is the display span and accuracy of the OMEGA DP400S strain gauge digital panel meter?
The OMEGA DP400S series strain gauge digital panel meter offers a display span from -999,999 to 999,999 and an accuracy of ±1%. It features a yellow OLED display with graph capability, an RS-485 interface, and a relay rated 2.00 A at 250 V AC. The meter is listed to CE, RoHS, and UL standards. It operates on 24 V AC to 230 V AC. This model is suitable for strain gauge input applications requiring local display and communication.
What capacities are available in the OMEGA LC202 inline load cell series?
The OMEGA LC202 series includes inline load cells with capacities of 300 lbf, 2,000 lbf, 7,500 lbf, and 10,000 lbf. Each model measures both compression and tension, provides ±0.25% accuracy and hysteresis, and includes a 5 ft integral cable. The LC202-300, LC202-2K, LC202-7.5K, and LC202-10K are part of this series. These load cells are used in industrial force measurement, material testing, and process control. The series is available through 3G Electric with published specifications.
What is the difference between the OMEGA LC201-25 and LC202 load cells?
The OMEGA LC201-25 is a sub-miniature inline load cell rated for 25 lbf in both compression and tension, with a 5 ft integral cable. The LC202 series includes larger-capacity inline load cells from 300 lbf to 10,000 lbf, also for compression and tension, with ±0.25% accuracy and hysteresis. The LC201-25 is suited for low-force applications where space is limited, while the LC202 series handles higher forces in industrial and testing environments. Both are available from 3G Electric.
What are the load capacities of OMEGA convertible creepers?
OMEGA convertible creepers are available with different load capacities. The fixed steel creeper (MPN 91305) has a 350 lb max load capacity and an 18 in seat height, with a platform measuring 9-1/2 in x 14 in x 9-1/2 in. The heavy-duty convertible creeper (MPN 91452) supports up to 450 lb and has an adjustable height range from 5 1/4 in to 18 in, with a steel frame and padded surface. These creepers are used for accessing vehicle and equipment undersides during maintenance and repair.
What standards and approvals do OMEGA panel meters and load cells carry?
OMEGA panel meters and load cells may carry CE, RoHS, and UL listings, depending on the model. For example, the DP400S strain gauge digital panel meter is listed to CE, RoHS, and UL. Load cells such as the LC202 series are typically supplied with specifications for accuracy, hysteresis, and capacity, but individual certifications should be confirmed per model. 3G Electric provides product documentation and can assist with verifying standards for specific OMEGA products.
How does 3G Electric support OMEGA product selection for industrial applications?
3G Electric supplies OMEGA products globally and provides technical documentation, quotation services, and product selection assistance based on published specifications. For plant engineers and maintenance managers, 3G Electric can help identify suitable OMEGA panel meters, load cells, and maintenance accessories by reviewing application requirements such as force range, display needs, and environmental conditions. The product listings include key specifications like accuracy, capacity, interface, and standards to support procurement decisions.
