Frequently Asked Questions

What is the recommended excitation voltage for the GML668B force sensor?

The GML668B load cell is designed for a supply voltage range of 5 to 15 VDC. A stable, regulated power source within this range is recommended to ensure the rated 2.0 mV/V output signal accuracy and long-term sensor stability.

Can this sensor measure both pulling and pushing forces?

Yes, the Pro-Range GML668B is specifically engineered as a dual-purpose tension and compression force sensor. It can accurately measure both pulling (tensile) and pushing (compressive) forces up to its 500 Newton rated load capacity.

How do I interface this mV output sensor with an Arduino or PLC?

The sensor's low-level 2.0 mV/V analog output requires signal conditioning. You must connect it to an instrumentation amplifier or a dedicated load cell amplifier module (HX711, INA125) to boost the signal before reading it with an Arduino's ADC or a PLC's analog input module.

Is the GML668B suitable for use in wet or dusty environments?

Yes, with its IP66 ingress protection rating, the sensor is protected against powerful water jets and dust ingress. This makes it suitable for use in many industrial automation and outdoor applications where environmental exposure is a concern.
