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.
