Load Cell
Universal S Type Load Cell FS4A is strain gauge based intended for traction and compression
force measurement. S Beam Load Cell FS4A offers 0-2kg / 0-5kg /
0-10kg / 0-20kg / 0-30kg / 0-50kg six rated measuring ranges to
choose from. M6 metric threaded holes located on both ends can be
used to mount attachments such as eye bolts and hooks for adapt to
different cases. S type Compression Traction Load Cell FS4A offers
an accurate and affordable measuring solution for applications such
as material testing machines, hanging scales, hopper weighing,
automation equipment, coefficient of friction testing systems,
industrial force control/ feedback, push-pull gauges and so on.
Load cell glossary:
Wheatstone Bridge:A Wheatstone bridge is a network of four
resistive legs. One or more of these legs can be active sensing
elements. The Wheatstone bridge is the electrical equivalent of two
parallel voltage divider circuits. R1 and R2 compose one voltage
divider circuit, and R4 and R3 compose the second voltage divider
circuit. The output of a Wheatstone bridge is measured between the
middle nodes of the two voltage dividers.
Excitation: The voltage applied to the input terminals of the load
cell.
Rated Capacity: The maximum axial load the load cell is designed to
measure within its specifications.
Non-linearity: The maximum deviation of the calibration curve from
a straight line drawn between the no-load and rated outputs;
expressed as a percentage of the rated output and measured on
increasing load only.
Non-repeatability: The maximum difference between load cell output
readings for repeated loadings under identical loading and
environmental conditions.
Hysteresis: The maximum difference between load cell output
readings for the same applied load; one reading obtained by
increasing the load from zero and the other by decreasing the load
from rated output; usually measured at half rated output and
expressed in percent of rated output.
Creep: The change in load cell output occurring with specified
period of time, while under load, and with all environmental
conditions and other variables remaining constant; usually measured
with rated load applied.
Safe Overload: The maximum load in percent of rated capacity which
can be applied without producing a permanent shift in performance
characteristics beyond those specified.
Ultimate Overload: The maximum load in percent of rated capacity
which can be applied without producing a structural failure.
Operating Temperature: The extremes of temperature within which a
load cell will operate without permanent adverse change to any of
its performance characteristics.

M6 Threaded S Beam Load Cell 2kg 5kg 10kg 20kg 30kg 50kg S-type
Load Cell
Output signal of load cell and amplifier:
Load cell output: = (Power supply * Rated output) * Load / Capacity
Rated output of S-Type Load Cell FS4A is normally around 2.0mV/V.
Power supply of S-Beam Load cell FS4A is normally within 3-15V.
Load / Capacity is within 0-1.
So the output range of S Type Tension Compression Load Cell FS4A is
normally within -30mV…+30mV for bidirectional force measurement.
Example one: Universal S
Type Load Cell FS4A-20kg with 2.0mV/V sensitivity powered by 5V DC, the output
range is -10mV...+10mV.
Example two: M6 Threaded S-beam Load Cell FS4A-2kg with 2.0mV/V
rated output powered by 10V DC, the output range is -20mV...+20mV.
The mV/V output from the wheatstone bridge sometimes can hardly be
processed directly, a signal conditioner can be used with the load
cell to deliver -5~5V, 0-10V or 4-20mA output.
Example one: S-type Tension Compression Load Cell FS4A-5kg working
with amplifier FSC(-5-5V)-24V, the Load-Voltage relationship will
be 0-5kg compression force VS 0-5V output, 0-5kg traction force VS
0-(-5V), which is linear regardless of the measurement error, 1V
output corresponds to 1kg compressive load, (-2V) output
corresponds to 2kg tensile load, and so on.
Example two: S-beam Tension Compression Sensor FS4A-10kg working
with amplifier FSC(4-12-20mA)-24V, the Force-Current relationship
will be 0-10kg compressive force VS 12-20mA output, 0-10kg tensile
force VS 12-4mA, which is linear regardless of the measurement
error, 12mA output corresponds to “0” load, 12.8mA output
corresponds to 1kg compression load, 8mA output corresponds to 5kg
tension load, and so on.
