Shunt Calibration Resistors 101

Interface shunt calibration resistors, known as RCAL Resistors, are an accessory product. A shunt calibration resistor is connected in parallel with a measurement instrument to provide a known resistance value. The purpose of the shunt cal resistor is to calibrate the instrument to accurately measure the current passing through it. Shunt calibration resistors are often used with load cells to improve the accuracy and reliability of their measurements.

How Do Load Cells Work?

Interface Tech Talk experts answer the question how do load cells work. A load cell’s basic function is to take applied force and convert it into an output signal that provides the user with a measurement. This process of converting a force into data is typically completed through a Wheatstone bridge that is comprised of strain gages. There is a bending beam under the load and when weight or force is applied, the change in bend (deflection) results in change in output.
