Loadstar Sensors offers a wide range of load cells built using bonded foil strain gauge technology. These resistive load cells offer excellent accuracies (as good as +/- 0.02% of full scale accuracy) with temperature compensation usually between -10C to 40C and excellent compensation for off-center loading errors.

Althought the base output of these load cells is millivolt range DC voltage output, we offer a variety of signal conditioning devices that can be used to obtain 0-5V DC analog output, Serial TTL output, USB output or wireless output from the load cell.

The table below summarizes the types of resistive load cells we offer:
