Existing reviews of Tension and Compression Load Cell, 1 kg - 500 kg
5kg micro load cells for tension test
I just bought 5 pcs 5kg micro load cells for tension test. The tension load cells have highly sensitive and good repeatability precision. The measured data is really accurate and stable. I am also satisfied with the delivery time. It takes about a week to receive them.

The output signal of the load cell is 0-20mV.
I am interested in your load cell. Can you recommend one for me?
I am working at a research station in Norway and we have 12 loads (50 kg and 300 kg) which we want to connect to a computer, so that we can follow the weight over time. Is that possible, and what do you recommend?

We can recommend using our multi-channel junction box to connect the load cell together getting one output, and then connect the junction box output signal to our digital load cell amplifier, to output RS485 signal, and then connect to the computer software through the 485 signal to monitor the weight information.
Can you provide some advice for my test?
I do impact testing for football collisions. I have a pendulum with a 15.3 kg mass, on which the load cell is mounted. I impact a head form which has the 6DXPro mounted inside. I record 4 seconds of data from the load cell, 3 accelerometer channels, and 3 gyroscope channels. For each of the 5 tests I performed the linear acceleration and angular velocity profiles are consistent, the load cell readings however changed drastically. They increased with each test from 29 kg to 49 kg to 108 kg to 120 kg then drastically dropped to 10 kg on my last test. Any insight you may be able to provide is greatly appreciated.

The structure of the model DYMH-103 you purchased is not suitable for impact testing. When installed horizontally, the weight of the sensor itself will also have a certain impact on the measurement. Therefore, the output measurement value will be unstable and inaccurate under these factors. For your testing, it is recommended that you use our MH-105. When installing, please install it vertically, and use the vertical direction for impact testing.
I have the following queries.
1. Can it be customizable to take compressive loads up to 1000 kg? Will the expected delivery date be still 12 days? If not do you have any estimate?
2. Will the diameter of the load cell be 15-20 mm for compressive loads upto 1000 kg? We are looking in that range.
3. Will the load cell be calibrated?
4. Is it reliable for carrying out high frequency dynamic load tests (research experiments)? If not do you have such load cells of up to 1000 kg? The time scale I am talking about is 2-5 milli seconds, thus the data required needs to be 100kHz.

1.Sorry, we can't produce 15-20 mm diameter, our 1000kg load cell is 51mm in diameter.
2. The response frequency of our load cell is 1kHz, which cannot reach the 100kHz you require.
Correct information of load cell
While checking the load cell specifications, I noticed some differences between the information in the catalog (pdf file) and the website overview (e.g. Excitation voltage, Accuracy). Which specifications are correct?

The information on the page is correct, the information on the PDF is wrong, sorry for the confusion.
Problems about ATO load cell.
I have an ATO-LC-TC01 load cell, which I think is malfunctioning and need support with it. The problem is as follows:
When I measure the bridge impedances with a multimeter, I only get 350 Ohms on the Red/White and Green/Black pairings; all other measurements are Open Loop
The top cover of the unit is loose and can fall off of the threads, exposing the internals of the load cell.
When connected to the ATO-LCTR-DY510 load cell amplifier, the output from the amplifier is -13V, which I believe indicates that the amplifier is not seeing a proper connection to the load cell.
This all occurs whether the load cell is in tension, compression, or no load.
Is there any further troubleshooting I can do with this unit?
Is there a recommended installation procedure for these load cells to ensure they are not damaged by the tightening process on the threads?

If the red/white and green/black pairings are only 350 ohms when the multimeter measures the bridge impedance, and all other measurements are open loop, it means that the sensor is damaged inside. When installing the load cell, do not screw the screw to the end, and the screw should not touch the ring surface of the sensor, otherwise the sensor may be damaged.
Which interface recovers the signal of this tension and compression load cell?
I would like to know which interface recovers the signal of this tension and compression load cell. I couldn’t find it on your page.

This load sensor has no recovery signal interface, its output is 0-20mV, and you can get an analog signal or RS-485 if you connect its output to the load cell transmitter/amplifier.
Some question of load cell, 1kg-500kg
Would like to clarify a few things for recent purchase load cell 0-500 capacity.
It seems there are 2 weights needed for calibration,10% rated weight range or more than half the full range?
Secondly is, what is the tolerance of the load cell?
Can it achieve 0.00 for 0-500kg capacity?
What do you mean by F.S in accuracy 0.3%FS?

1. It is also acceptable to calibrate the rated weight range of 10% of the sensor range or more than half the full range.
2. 0.3%F.S means: the accuracy error is 500kg*0.003=1.5kg.
Some problems about the calibration
I did the whole calibration and I put 2 kg thing during the weight calibration to verify the weight then after the set up. I put 2 kg thing on top of the load cell still show 1.7 kg. I am wondering why.

We think that in your case, the calibration was not performed correctly. When calibrating, you need to complete 2 steps. To calibrate the zero point without load first, you need to adjust the zero point potentiometer to display the signal output to 0. After completion, perform load target point calibration. For example, the weight is 50Kg, which is equivalent to 10% of the full scale of 500Kg, then the output voltage signal should be 10% of 5V, which is 0.5V, so you need to adjust the span potentiometer until the output signal shows 0.5V.
