GENERAL PURPOSE LOW PROFILE LOAD CELL OPERATION MANUAL 5.2 Cable & Grounding Considerations Proper grounding and shielding is required to prevent electrical noise in strain gage load cell measuring systems. The cable must be shielded twisted pairs with a drain wire. Cable shields must be grounded only at one end, for example, on the instrument or control system ground.
GENERAL PURPOSE LOW PROFILE LOAD CELL OPERATION MANUAL 6.1.1 Measured Output 7.0 MOMENT COMPENSATION The applied load starting at zero is measured in five When an eccentric axial load is increments to full scale. Output (mV/V) is measured at each applied to a load cell that is not Primary increment.
