Load Cell Electrical Components, Connectors, and Wiring Standards
Interface provides technical specifications, pinouts, and wiring documentation for load cells, torque transducers, multi-axis sensors, and instrumentation for each product. Achieving high-accuracy measurement data depends completely on the integrity of the electrical connections between the sensor and the instrumentation. Simple wiring errors or incorrect pin mapping can result in inverted data, thermal drift, or irreversible damage to components in the data acquisition system. Interface Support offers Electrical Wiring and Diagrams resources, including cable, connector, and assembly wiring colors and references.

Detailing Sensor Rated Output Millivolts Per Volt
Interface sensor specifications state rated output, expressed in millivolts per volt (mV/V), as the electrical output of a load cell, multi-axis sensor, or reaction torque transducer in mV/V of excitation at the rated load. It essentially expresses a load cell's sensitivity. RO represents the change in output voltage in millivolts of the load cell relative to a change in the excitation voltage in volts applied to it.
