Model No: IEI-10
A load cell is an electro mechanical device which converts force into an electrical signal and used for measurement of static and dynamic forces. The load cell has a load receiving element having highly tensile strength and strain gauges which convert this change in (de)formation of load receiving element into proportional change in electrical signal.
Construction wise the load cell has three basic parts, the housing or mount ( holding the cell ), the load receiving element ( Al bar with drilled holes) ) and strain gauges in bridge form. In the load cell four strain gauges are mounted from which two sense compressive strains at the bottom side, and tensile strains on the upper side. since both the compressive ands tensile strains are equal the bridge output is twice. Connections are made to from four arm active bridge

Connections are made to from four arm active bridge . The bridge is excited with a dc potential obtained from a band gap reference.
