Why Is Load Cell Zero Balance Important to Accuracy?

Load cell zero balance is the signal of the load cell in the no-load condition. It is defined as the output signal of the load cell with rated excitation and no load applied. It refers to the amount of deviation in output between true zero and an actual load cell with zero load. It is usually expressed in the percentage of rated output (%RO). Zero balance is a test that can be done to understand calibration on a load cell.
