2-3. Connection with strain gage based transducer
This instrument can connect with the strain gage based transducers, such as load cells,
pressure sensors, etc. Please connect the load cell to the upper terminal block. We describe
here as an example of connection with load cells, and please process it similarly for
connecting with other strain gage based transducers.

•
When tension is applied with the use of tension type or universal (tension/com-
pression) type load cell, and display of (+) direction is required, connect input (+) of
load cell to terminal B and input (-) of load cell to terminal D individually.
(Excluding Minebea's load cell of CLS-A, CL- B, UL(A) and UT(A)).
•
Cable color is Minebea's standard.
(Excluding Minebea's load cell of LSM-B.)
•
When the length of CAB-501 (Minebea's standard cable) is more than 100 m
totally, the accuracy may be out of warranty as the remote sensing function of the
instrument does not work enough due to the resistance of the cable.
•
Shorten the remote sensing input + and remote sensing input - near the main body
of load cell. When the short is made near the instrument, the sensing function does
not work as it is.
