5 KG Load Cell

The 5 KG Load Cell is a strain gauge-based weight sensor capable of measuring up to 5 kilograms. When paired with an HX711 amplifier, it provides accurate weight measurements for digital scales and force sensing applications.

Key Features

• 5kg maximum capacity
• Strain gauge technology
• High accuracy with proper calibration
• 4-wire configuration (Excitation+, Excitation-, Signal+, Signal-)
• Aluminum alloy construction
• Compact size
• Compatible with HX711 amplifier

Technical Specifications

Applications

• Digital scales
• Weight monitoring systems
• Force measurement
• Inventory weighing
• Process control
• Educational experiments

Important Notes

• Requires HX711 amplifier module for Arduino interfacing
• Calibrate with known weights for accuracy
• Mount securely with proper mechanical fixtures
• Do not exceed rated load – permanent damage will occur
• Temperature affects readings – allow thermal stabilization
• 4-wire connection reduces error from cable resistance
