Micro Load Cell, S type, 1kg/2kg/3kg/10kg to 50kg

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

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-.

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.
