Weighing Scale Kit (KIT4007_0)

An aluminium-framed weighing scale kit with three different load cells: 780g, 5kg, 25kg.

This convenient kit contains three micro load cells of different strengths and an aluminum shell that can be assembled into a simple weighing scale. The top and bottom of the aluminium shell is installed on either end of the load cell, which creates shear force in the load cell when an item is placed on the surface of the scale. The force measured is proportional to the weight of the item, so with proper cailbration you can calculate the weight.

Features

• Easy-to-assemble weighing scale
• Includes three different load cells: 780g, 5kg, and 25kg
• Connects to any Phidget Bridge or load cell interface

Connection

Load cells require a power source and produce a very small voltage differential when under strain. In order to read this signal, an amplifier or a board with a high-precision analog-to-digital converter is required. For more details and a list of Phidgets that will connect to this load cell, see the Connection & Compatibility tab.
