We recommend our combinator board to make it easy to turn the four strain gauges into a wheatstone bridge type load cell.
Load cell amplifier calibration.
If you aren t familiar with the following concepts we recommend reviewing them before.
Flexible connection to most load cells pressure or strain gauges over a wide range of sensitivities.
Single strain gauge load cells only have three wires instead of four suggested reading.
This amplifier can be used in applications where signal conditioning is needed.
Therefore they will need to be calibrated regularly to ensure accurate results are maintained.
The amplifier must be calibrated to work with the load cell.
Carotron offers a variety of motor control products including tension load cells and a din rail mountable load cell amplifier model lca210 000.
An engineer can help you with the calibration or the manufacturer may do this for you if you order both the load cell and amplifier from the same company.
A load cell amplifier helps to condition the signal from the load cell and makes it legible for other devices.
Over time load cells will drift age and misalign.
Load cell calibration depends on the load cell that is being used.
In most cases the manufacturer will do it for you if you order a load cell with an amplifier.
Load cell amplifier our intelligent strain gauge bridge amplifier is a compact stackable microprocessor based unit specifically designed to control and monitor process applications.
