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, 4-20mA, or RS485.

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

Miniature tension and compression load cells have capacity range from 1kg, 5kg, 10kg, 20kg, 30kg, 50kg, 100kg, 200kg, 300kg to 500kg. Load cell capacity can be customized according to customer requirements.

I am interested in the 50kg, 30kg, and 20kg capacity version of all of them. I am just looking to compare the sampling rates of all of them and see which one best fits my application.

The sampling rates of these two models SKU: ATO-LC-TC02 and SKU: ATO-LC-TC01 are higher, about 5KHz.
Pressure/load sensor
Do you have a pressure/load sensor which can be integrated in the horizontal axis which is perpendicular. I am interested in forces up to 60N.

Our load cell SKU: ATO-LC-TC02 can be integrated in the horizontal axis to measure thrust force. No problem, you can buy online directly.
A problem of load cell accuracy
I already had switched the green and white cable so that the order was green, white, red, and black. This gave me an inclining positive value as you said but that does not seem to be the problem. When I measure the signal being outputted directly from the load cell, it seems to affect the accuracy if the signal is a negative value. I'm measuring the signal over the S- and S . So when I first tried to calibrate I went through the process as mentioned in the description. But when I removed the weight and put it back it seemed to be way off. So I checked the S- and S  and saw the values being negative. Then I calibrated the zero level til I had a positive value on the S- and S  readings and then the accuracy seemed to be right. Although the zero level was now 2V. How do I fix this?

Regarding our previous suggestion, first you need to ensure that the voltage signal output by the measuring transmitter is positive after the load cell and the transmitter are wired correctly. You can only perform the calibration step if the output signal is confirmed to be positive, not if the signal is negative.When calibrating, you need to complete 2 steps. First perform no-load zero calibration, and adjust the zero potentiometer to display the signal output to 0. After the completion, perform load target point calibration. For example, if the weight is 50Kg, which is equivalent to 10% of the full scale of 500Kg, then the output voltage signal should be 10% of 5V, which is 0.5V. You need to adjust the span potentiometer until the output signal shows 0.5V.
