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.
This single-point mounted parallel beam load cell is available in capacities of 4kg, 8kg, 10kg, 15kg, 20kg, and 30kg. It features a C3 accuracy class with a precision of ±0.02% F.S, and operates with an excitation voltage range of 5~12VDC.

Application
Tips: What are the advantages of using a parallel beam structure?
The parallel beam structure improves accuracy and stability in weighing applications. It helps distribute force evenly, reducing errors in measurement. This design also lowers the impact of off-center loading, making it ideal for small weighing systems. It resists mechanical stress and vibrations, keeping weight readings steady over time. The structure is highly sensitive and does not bend easily, ensuring reliable performance. Made from lightweight aluminum alloy, it is strong and durable. This makes it a great choice for automated weighing, retail scales, and industrial weight tracking.
