The load cell must also be accurately wired to the hx711 to ensure that the appropriate strain gauge leads are used to approximate the weight given by the load cell.
S type load cell arduino.
Load cell 200kg s type tas501 sen 14282 59 95.
Load cell basics types of load cells.
Arduino scale with 5kg load cell and hx711 amplifier.
Amplifying the load cell s output voltage signal using a pre packaged instrumentation amplifier ic like the ina125 to be processed by the arduino s adc.
A load cell s range can vary greatly.
We will also be using a character lcd to display the load cell s reading.
Using a high resolution adc which can be interfaced with the arduino.
Wire everything as listed in the table below.
We are interfacing 40kg load cell to the arduino using hx711 load cell amplifier module.
In this arduino tutorial of hx711 load cell amplifier interface.
The two common approaches for interfacing a load cell with an arduino are.
The bar type we are using has different screws holes on the bottom and the top.
Hx711 is a precision 24 bit analogto digital converter adc designed for weigh scales and industrial control applications to interface directly with a bridge sensor.
Hey guys this video will explain you load cell working principle and connections wheatstone bridge type of load cell and application for same.
Next we will explore calibration and test the load cell as a weighing scale.
Arduino this design uses a standard arduino uno other arduino versions or clones should work also2.
On the opposite side you can see the connection for the load cell.
In the project we use a load cell that can weigh up to 20kg.
This instructable describes how to make a small weighing scale using readily available off the shelf parts materials needed 1.
