Loadstar's iLoad TR Analog Series load cell, based on new break-through technology, provides several unique benefits that make it usable across a wide range of applications.
The iLoad TR Analog load cell has signal conditioning electronics built into the sensor itself, and does not need specialized external equipment for output measurement. The sensor itself is small, thin, and rugged, and provides high reliability as well as space-saving benefits to
manufacturers. It mounts easily using commonly available hardware.
Loadstar’s breakthrough comes from its use of capacitive technology for load sensing.
Unlike conventional resistive load cells based on either strain gauges or piezo-resistive
techniques, Loadstar’s patented technology harnesses changes in capacitance to
measure loads quickly and accurately.
The sensor accepts a 5V DC input signal and outputs an analog 0.5V – 4.5V DC signal
proportional to the applied load. The full scale output range is 4000 mV — two hundred
times that of traditional strain-gauge-based load cells. This signal can easily be measured
using commonly available Digital Multi-meters.

The iLoad TR Analog Series load cell integrates signal conditioning electronics into the load cell, eliminating the need to attach any external equipment to generate a usable 0-5V signal. In addition, this family is designed for applications requiring reduced sensitivity to off-center loading. The iLoad TR offers greater ruggedness and improved cable strain relief for more demanding applications.
