AD-4405 Weighing Indicator
3.1.3.
Adjustment of the Load Cell Output
Caution
Use a metal film resistor in the range of 50kohm to 500kohm with a
good temperature coefficient, when adding a resistor to adjust a load
cell output. Use as large of a resistance value as possible in the range
in which the zero adjustment is possible. Solder this resistor at a point
near the load cell or the indicator.
In Case of Reducing the Output Voltage
When the zero output is too large, add a resistor
between EXC+ and SIG-.
In Case of Adding an Offset Voltage to the Output
When the zero output is too small, add a resistor
between EXC+ and SIG+.
3.1.4.
Verifying Load Cell Output and Input Sensitivity
The input sensitivity of the indicator is 0.25
m
V /division or more. Adapt to the following
inequality, when you design a weighing instrument using the indicator and load
cell(s).
Caution
A change in input voltage sensitivity is required to cause a one division
change of the display. Select as large an input sensitivity voltage as
possible so that the weighing interval becomes stable.
Consider the leverage if a lever is used.
