Can the column load cell connect to an existing PLC?
I’m adding weighing capability to a material hopper and want to send the weight readings to an existing PLC. Can I connect this column load cell directly, or will I need another device to convert the signal?
The load cell outputs a low-level mV/V signal, so it needs a compatible transmitter to provide a standard signal such as 4–20 mA or 0–10 V for the PLC. Please share your required capacity and PLC input type, and we can help check the suitable configuration.
