10KG Load Cell Weight Sensor
= Standalone Precision Strain Gauge for Force Measurement Projects =
This 10KG aluminumalloy straight bar load cell converts applied force into a microvoltlevel electrical signal, ideal for building custom scales and force-sensing systems when paired with a suitable amplifier like the HX711 .
Microvolt Output Signal - Requires external amplifier (e.g., HX711) for microcontroller use.
10KG Maximum Capacity (22 lb) Suitable for mediumrange weighing applications.
Rated Output: Typically 1.0 to 2.0 mV/V depending on the model .
Excitation Voltage: Recommended 5V to 12V DC .
Operating Temperature: Typically ranges from -10°C to +40°C .
The output is extremely small, requiring a high-precision ADC like the HX711 for Arduino projects.
Note: Accuracy and wiring color codes may vary by manufacturer. Always verify the specific datasheet for your model.
