ICA1H & ICA2H Connections
The power supply for the ICA1H is nominally 24 V dc (between 13 and 28 V) and ICA2H is nominally 12 V dc (between
8.5 and 28 V).The power supply is commoned with the output at the ‘Com’ connection.
Figure 2.2 Connection Details for the ICA1H & ICA2H
The strain gauge cable should be attached to the solder pads as illustrated
For most applications 3 wire un-shielded field wiring is quite adequate.
For best EMC performance use the connections shown in Figure 2.3
Figure 2.3 Connection Details for Best EMC Immunity for ICA1H & ICA2H
Take note of the grounding arrangement particularly the bolt hole which capacitively couples the common of the ICA
electronics to the strain elements in the load cell to improve the EMC performance.
