What is a Load Cell Amplifier and how Does it Work?

A load cell amplifier is a device that can increase the strength of signals coming from a load cell. Sometimes, the signals produced by the load cell can be feeble and low strength signals may not work with certain components of the measuring system like a data logger for load cells or load meter. The load cell amplifier resolves this issue by taking the signal and then amplifying it, resulting in a higher strength output signal. Load cell amplifiers can work as a standalone device or it is present in most signal-conditioning modules. We have model JY-S60, JY-S85 and other types of amplifiers for selection. The signals produced by a load cell will be mostly in mV (millivolt). A load cell amplifier coverts the mV signal into more powerful signals like 4-20 mA, 0-10 VDC, ±10 VDC, RS232, RS485, and USB. A load cell amplifier will …

Why do we need a junction box for parallel weighing of multiple load cells?

Some users mentioned: Three load cells are used in parallel. In the past, three sensor wires were used in parallel. Now the sensor bought by the factory also comes with a junction box. What is the function of this junction box and how to wire it? Doesn’t it work? The device using 3 sensors should …

What parameters should be paid attention to in the selection of load cells

One classification of load cell: According to the working principle of the load cell, it can be divided into the following methods: (1) Resistance strain type. Differential transformer type. Capacitive type. Piezomagnetic type. Piezoelectric type. Vibrating wire type. (2) According to the force, it can be divided into normal stress type and shear stress type. …
