    After purchasing one ATO load cell, you can buy a special digital panel meter to obtain readings directly, or buy a transmitter to output standard signal to PLC, DCS and other systems. Customized output signal is 0-5V, 0-10V, or 4-20mA.

    Note: The load cell cannot be connected to both the transmitter and the controller at the same time — only one can be selected.

    Tension and compression load cells have capacity range from 1kg, 2kg, 3kg, 10kg to 50kg. Load cell capacity can be customized according to customer requirements. It is able to measure both tensile and compressive forces, and it offers good hardenability and strong resistance to mechanical fatigue, quite durable for heavy-duty use.

    Wiring Method

    Load cell wiring method

    Tips: How to judge lead wire of load cell?
    The output resistance of the load cell is generally 350Ω, 480Ω, 700Ω, 1000Ω. The input terminal will be conducted with temperature and sensitivity compensations. Therefore, the resistance of the input terminal will be 20~100Ω higher than that of the output terminal. Therefore, if the multimeter is used to measure the resistance value, the input and output terminals can be judged. Normally, the colors of the input and output terminals are red, black, green and white. They are respectively marked as EXC+, EXC-, SIG+ and SIG-.

    In this video, ATO will show you how to wire a strain gauge load cell with a display controller.

    Shear Beam Load Cell | Single & Double-Ended, Weighbridge Load Cells

    The shear beam load cell is a common load cell. Its working principle is based on the deformation of the elastomer when it is acted upon by an external force. This deformation will cause the resistance of the elastomer to change, thereby achieving the measurement of the external force. It is typically used to measure forces in the small to medium range and its working principle is based on the shear effect of elastically deforming materials. This type of force measuring element is usually made of metal or polymer materials. Because of its high elastic modulus and shear modulus, it can produce stable shear deformation when subjected to external forces.

    Existing reviews of Micro Load Cell, S type, 1kg/2kg/3kg/10kg to 50kg
    What is the frequency response or natural frequency of this load cell？
    Hi, can you let me know what the frequency response or natural frequency of the loadcell is for the 5kg and 10kg versions? Thanks!
    From: Hazel | Date: 08/10/2023
    Was this review helpful? Yes No (0/0)
    ATO Responded
    The load cell has a frequency response of 8khz for both the 5kg and 10kg versions.
    Where did 0.05% accuracy of load cell come from?
    Thank you for your email.
    In your calculation of the resolution, where did 0.05% come from?
    Secondly, I was under the impression that my DAQ would contribute to the resolution.
    My DAQ resolution is 15 bits. So I thought the resolution I could read would be in the range of 50kg.
    Could you offer any clarification? Since the resolution I could read based on the DAQ is lower, does that mean both of those resolutions should be considered but the laid cell itself will be the limiting factor?
    From: lailli | Date: 28/08/2023
    Was this review helpful? Yes No (0/0)
    ATO Responded
    1. The overall accuracy of 0.05% is determined based on the very accuracy of a resistance strain gauge and takes into consideration other elements that would affect accuracy. Physically, in an ideal state, the resistance of the strain gauge should be able to change like the value on the real number axis under the changing external pressure.
    But in practical applications, we have to consider the impact of factors such as process, installation method, processing errors, and so on. Therefore, after considering various factors, an overall accuracy of 0.05% was obtained for this model.
    2. Yes, your 15-bit DAQ device granted the input a set of different input values, but that would also be under ideal conditions, without the effect of any noise and drift.
    3. And yes, since your DAQ's resolution is much higher (by orders of magnitude) compared to that of the sensor.
    We can go with the accuracy of 0.05% as the overall value.
    Provide information on this load cell
    Hi, I have an ATO load cell.
    The load cell I have has a 50 kg capacity and 2 mV/V sensitivity. I am using a 4V excitation voltage. I am unsure of how to determine the resolution of my ATO load cell with the specifications.
    Can you all provide any information on this?
    From: jasmine | Date: 27/08/2023
    Was this review helpful? Yes No (0/0)
    ATO Responded
    1. The resolution of the load cell (range 50kg) is 0.025kg, which is calculated based on 0.05%*range 50kg=0.025kg.
    2. The excitation voltage range of the sensor is 5-15V. We recommend using 10V excitation voltage, not 4V.
    Do you have a recommendation for this load cell?
    Our customer has hired us to design a machine to test insertion force of needles, they estimate the amount of force applied to be around 5 lbs and we are looking for a correct load cell to measure how much pressure is being applied to get the needle into the material. The load cell will be mounted to the black piece in the middle of the machine and a servo motor will drive it down while taking measurements. Do you have a recommendation for this load cell?

    Weight measurement load cells 50kg
    My project require the weight measurement load cells 50kg, any recommendation?
    From: Balqis | Date: 27/02/2023
    Was this review helpful? Yes No (0/0)
    I’m trying to decide on a 50kg tension/compression load cell for my project and I have three questions.
    I’m trying to decide on a 50kg tension/compression load cell for my project and I have three questions.
    1. For this load cell, the weight is shown as 100g. From my calculations, it couldn’t be over 70g even if it were solid stainless steel. Does the 100g mass include the cable? If not, what is the total mass of the sensor and the cable?
    2. Just to confirm, I understand this is a strain gauge-based load cell. Is there a datasheet that shows the configuration or information about the bridge that’s chosen? I have some concerns about the signal creep.
    3. The other load cell I am currently considering is this 50kg load cell. I wanna know the mass of the load cell, the linearity of the signal, and the signal creep are the most important features.
    From: DeLisle | Date: 12/12/2022
    Was this review helpful? Yes No (0/0)
    ATO Responded
    1. The weight of different measuring ranges of the sensor is different, and the weight includes the weight of the cable.
    2. Sorry, we don't have the configuration or information about the bridge that's chosen.
    3. For the quality, signal linearity, and signal creep of the DYLY-106 load cell, please refer to the specification table.
    Do you have any suggestions?
    We have a small plastic extrusion system where the melted plastic strand may "fall" out of the die and onto the floor and continue to form a pile. This is a system that does not have constant monitoring so we would like to put some type of load cell on the floor where it would sense a load and then sound an alarm and flash a warning light so the stand can be put back into the processing line.
    From: Annette | Date: 27/07/2022
    Was this review helpful? Yes No (0/0)
    ATO Responded
    We need to know what the approximate weight (Kg) of the melted plastic of falling onto the floor is. If it is too light, the load cell may not be able to detect it, so we need to know what the approximate weight range of the plastic is.
    Does the load cell need to be calibrated?
    If the load cell permanently mounted. Does it need to be calibrated once in a while because of the creep?
    From: Clayr | Date: 09/12/2021
    Was this review helpful? Yes No (0/0)
    ATO Responded
    When sensor reading has a large error (measured value is not accurate), the calibration is required, but calibration is not determined according to usage time.
    Shield Wire
    Is the shield wire connected to the load cell body?
    From: Fahad | Date: 26/08/2019
    Was this review helpful? Yes No (0/0)
    ATO Responded
    Yes, all the load cell cables include a shielded wire. The color of shielded wire is yellow.
