Loadstar Sensors award winning capacitive load cells offer unmatched ease of use in a low profile, rugged and integrated package. Our capacitive load cells offer serial, USB as well as Analog (0-5V DC) output without the need for any special signal conditioning equipment.

These sensors are excellent for R & D labs, universities and test facilities which need to quickly measure loads and forces, log data and visualize the data as a force vs. time plot. Our digital load cells can be used with a PC while our analog load cells are ideal for use with a PLC or data acquisition system. We have over one thousand happy customers who are using our sensors for their test and measurement needs.

Miniature Load Cell - iLoad Mini The iLoad Mini miniature load cells are designed for applications where size is a major constraint. The iLoad Mini is only 1.25" in diameter and outputs a 5V TTL square wave whose frequency is proportional to applied loads. When used with the DQ-1000U or DQ-1000A a user can conveniently get either Serial/USB output or Analog 0-5V calibrated output. For more information, see our Miniature Load Cell - iLoad Mini Page
Miniature Load Cell - iLoad Mini Pro Stainless Steel Available in 500, 1000, 2500, 5000 and 10000 lb capacity. Just two inches in diameter. For more information, see our Miniature Load Cell - iLoad Mini Pro Stainless Steel Page
Low Profile USB Load Cell - iLoad Series Compression Only The iLoad digital low profile load cells offer direct measurement of loads via the USB port of a PC. No need for signal conditioners, data acquisition systems or special software. Just connect and start measuring! These load cells are 3" in Diameter and about 0.5" high and meant for compression load only. For more information, see our Low Profile USB Load Cell - iLoad Series Compression Only Page
iLoad TR Series Tilt Resistant USB Load Cell These fully integrated digital load cells (USB load cells) (3" dia. and 1.2" high), are designed for applications requiring reduced sensitivity to off-center loading. It comes in capacities up to 100 lbs and accuracies up to +/- 0.25% of full scale. These sensors offer a threaded hole on the top and three threaded mounting holes on the bottom to help fasten various accessories to the sensor. For more information, see our iLoad TR Series Tilt Resistant USB Load Cell Page
iLoad Pro Industrial Grade Digital Load Cell The iLoad Pro Series digital load cells are designed with better strain relief features for improved ruggedness. These Serial TTL or USB Load Cells are designed for use in industrial environments and are available in capacities up to 10,000 pounds. These USB Load Cells can be used to quickly view, log or plot force vs. time data on a PC. For more information, see our iLoad Pro Industrial Grade Digital Load Cell Page
