This straight bar load cell can translate up to 5 kg of pressure (force) into an electrical signal. Each load cell is able to
n
nmeasure the electrical resistance that changes in response to, and proportional of, the strain (e.g. pressure or force)
n
napplied to the bar. With this gauge you will be able to tell just how heavy an object is, if an object’ s weight changes over
n
ntime, or if you simply need to sense the presence of an object by measuring strain or load applied to a surface.
n
nEach straight bar load cell is made from an aluminumalloy
n
nand is capable of reading a capacity of 5kg. These load cells
n
nhave four strain gauges that are hooked up in a Wheatstone bridge formation. The color code on the wiring is as follows:
n
nred = E+, green = O+, black = E,
n
nand white = O.

nAdditionally , these load cells offer an IP66 protection rating and
n
nfeature two M4 and two M5 sized thru holes for mounting purposes.
