Phaeton CZL-611RD-20KG Load Cell Sensor - Aluminum Alloy Weighing

The sensor uses a standard 4-wire configuration: Red wire for positive excitation (+E), Green wire for negative excitation (-E), Black wire for positive signal output (+S), and White wire for negative signal output (-S). This setup allows for standard ratiometric measurement with most load cell amplifiers and instrumentation modules.

You will need a load cell amplifier or a precision instrumentation amplifier (like the HX711 module for Arduino) to condition the small mV/V output signal. The amplifier provides the required excitation voltage (typically 5V or 10V) and amplifies the differential signal to a readable voltage or digital output for your microcontroller or PLC.

Mount the load cell securely using screws through its mounting holes, ensuring the load is applied correctly along its designated axis. For calibration, apply known weights across the full 0-20kg range to your system and map the amplifier's output signal. Avoid side loads and impacts exceeding the rated capacity to maintain accuracy and prevent damage.
