Load Cell Amplifier Calibration

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.

Load cell amplifier calibration.

In most cases the manufacturer will do it for you if you order a load cell with an amplifier. The amplifier must be calibrated to work with the load cell. Flexible connection to most load cells pressure or strain gauges over a wide range of sensitivities. Carotron s model lca210 000 load cell amplifier.

Carotron offers a variety of motor control products including tension load cells and a din rail mountable load cell amplifier model lca210 000. Load cells are an integral part of most weighing systems in industrial aerospace and automotive industries enduring rigorous daily use. Single strain gauge load cells only have three wires instead of four suggested reading. If you are planning on using load sensors 1 you will need to obtain or purchase four units.

A load cell amplifier helps to condition the signal from the load cell and makes it legible for other devices. 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 our intelligent strain gauge bridge amplifier is a compact stackable microprocessor based unit specifically designed to control and monitor process applications. Over time load cells will drift age and misalign.

If you aren t familiar with the following concepts we recommend reviewing them before.
