Figure 1-4. Route of electrical Load Cell input and output through Wheatstone Bridge circuit.
A Load Cell is a force sensor, which receives a voltage (excitation) from a regulated power
source in the Indicator, and sends back a low-voltage milli-volt (mV) relative to the force applied.
The Load Cell signal is read by the Indicator, which converts it to a numeric value and shows it
visually. This output value increases as weight is loaded to the Load Cell.
For example, a 500kg Load Cell with 2mV/V output and 5V excitation would have a change of
0.02mV per kg change in the load, that is, 10mV/500=0.02mV per kg. At a load of 250kg the
signal voltage would thus increase by 5mV from the value measured at no load.
