You know what load cells you need for your next project (or maybe you don't, we can help with that) and now you need to integrate them into the rest of your system. There are many things to consider when building custom weighing applications but today we are only going to focus on the load cell cables. What type of load cell cable are you going to need to get the job done right? You’ll have to consider a number of things, including length, temperature, and other environmental factors.

Simply put, load cell cables act as both a power and communication channel, bridging the indicator and load cells together. Power originates from the indicator through the excitation wires in a load cell cable. The load cell acts as a transducer that then creates an electrical signal proportional to the force applied to it. This proportional electrical signal is then relayed back to the indicator which displays the numerical weight based on the signal strength.
