After purchasing one ATO load cell, you can buy a special digital panel meter to obtain readings directly, or buy a transmitter to output standard signal to PLC, DCS and other systems. Customized output signal is 0-5V, 0-10V, or 4-20mA.

Note: The load cell cannot be connected to both the transmitter and the controller at the same time — only one can be selected.

Tension and compression load cells have capacity range from 500kg, 5 ton, 30 ton, 50 ton to 100 ton.

Wiring Method

Application

Tips: What kind of maintenance does the Tension/Compression Load Cell require?

Regular maintenance includes checking the load cell for signs of mechanical wear, corrosion, or damage. It’s important to inspect the connectors, wiring, and mounting system to ensure everything is secure. Periodic recalibration should also be done to ensure accurate measurements, especially after heavy use or exposure to extreme conditions.

How to Choose the Right Load Cell

Load cells are sensors used to measure the weight of an object. Their working principle is based on physical phenomena such as elastic deformation, electromagnetic force and pressure change, with high accuracy and reliability. These sensors can accurately measure the weight of an object for monitoring, control and recording. This video will help you choose the right load cell through six factors: Application, operating environment, material type and sealing technology, capacity/resolution requirements and output signal type.

How to Make Your Load Cell Transmitter Work More Accurately

In this video, we've shown you how to calibrate the weight transmitter Model 610 by ATO using a compression load cell so that you can make sure you get the most accurate readings possible in your measurement.

CHB Load Cell Controller Calibration | Compensation Factor Calculation

In this video, we will walk you through the calibration procedure of ATO's CHB series load cell controller and how to calculate the compensation factor for your specific load cell so as to improve measurement accuracy. Hope you'll find it helpful.

How to Test for Faults in Load Cells?

As the most essential as well as vulnerable part of an electronic weighing system, load cells might get damaged for many different reasons. How can you determine whether a load cell is at fault? This video is gonna smooth out this problem by showing you several basic field tests that can be performed on site and provides the information necessary to interpret the results.

Cabled Tension Load Cell for Crane & Hoist Weighing Systems

In this introduction video, we've covered what the TJL-7 is, its specifications and some of the benefits that make it unique. This crane weigher is a strain gauge based alloy steel tension load cell designed with openings at either end. It has a high accuracy (0.03-0.05 F.S.) over a large and wide measurement range from 2t to 200t. Environmentally sealed to IP67, the crane load cell can withstand up to 150% safe overload.

Question about outer holes

On the drawing it looks like there are counterbore holes on the outer diameter, is that correct?

What is the depth of the counterbore?
