Phaeton CZL-611RD-3KG Aluminum Alloy Load Cell Sensor

The load cell uses a standard four-wire configuration: Red wire is positive excitation (+E), Green wire is negative excitation (-E), Black wire is positive signal output (+S), and White wire is negative signal output (-S). Connect these to the corresponding terminals on a load cell amplifier or instrumentation module to read the millivolt signal.

You need a load cell amplifier or a high-precision analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with a Wheatstone bridge input, such as an HX711 module. The amplifier provides the required 5V or 10V excitation voltage to the sensor and converts the small 1.0 mV/V output into a stable digital signal readable by microcontrollers like Arduino or PLCs.

The sensor is rated for a maximum capacity of 3 kg. To ensure long-term accuracy and prevent damage, do not exceed this load. A safety factor is typically built-in, but consistent overloading can permanently affect the sensor's calibration and hysteresis performance.

Mount the load cell using screws through its pre-drilled holes onto a rigid base. The load should be applied centrally to the designated loading surface. Ensure the mounting structure is flat and stable to minimize off-center loading errors. For accurate measurements, use in conjunction with a suitable mechanical assembly that directs force along the sensor's primary axis.
