Load Cell Checker

A load cell test is performed using a digital multimeter.

Load cell checker.

The digital multimeter is connected between the positive signal wire and the negative signal wire of the load cell. A load cell simulator is used primarily for calibrating scale indicators troubleshooting systems and verifying proper indicator setup. Suitable for checking 4 and 6 wire load cells and can check the condition of load cells within 5 seconds due to the in built program. Check out our article on how to use a load cell simulator.

This product tests the strain gage bridge of a load cell to ensure the signal output is what it should be. Rather than simply displaying a voltage reading cellchecker determines a battery s remaining power capacity by measuring its ability to maintain voltage levels while under load. This product is best suited for companies with several load cells who want to spend less time guessing where the issues are. A load cell tester tests the electrical configuration of a strain gage load cell showing bridge resistance insulation resistance and amount of output from the load cell useful to determine if a load cell has been overloaded.

This is the test for load cell output resistance. Simulators are capable of providing a wide range of useful load cell signals simulating the changing signal from a load cell as the weight varies. The tester then makes an assessment based on these readings and displays the remaining percentage capacity of the battery.
