However common practice per local electrical inspectors is for the first hot live or active wire to be black and the.
Load cell cable colour code.
Visually check load cells for proper orientation see below.
However if the load cell is installed correctly and the readings are still negative verify the wire connection according to the color code specified by the manufacturer.
The protective ground must be bare green or green yellow striped.
The length of the cable will make a.
Hot active wires may be any other colors except these.
Load cell wire colour codes a load cells and load pins manufactured from 01 01 2008 onwards load cell model available mounting accessories cable type and colour excitation wires signal wires ve input ve input ve output ve output load pin refer to individual load pin product data sheet for details.
Decals are also placed on the same side of each load cell.
Every load cell comes with rated capacity.
Smart load cell systems buy online or call 800 344 3965.
Each load cell is manufactured so that the cable comes off of the same side of the cell see diagram.
Loading the load cells beyond the rated value overloads the load cell.
Models excitation excitation signal signal.
Shield sense sense.
When a load cell is in use the cables will measure through resistance.
The load cell should deflect the same direction as the black arrow on the end of the cell.
Unfortunately there is no standard wiring colour code for load cells so you will need to know from data supplied with the cell which wires are the excitation wires and which wires are the signal wires see section 2 6 for colour code examples.
The us national electrical code for both ac and dc mandates that the grounded neutral conductor of a power system be white or grey.

All transducer sensing elements utilize the most advanced metal foil strain gauge technology.
Each wire has a name both 4 wire and 6 wire load cells have input input signal and signal wires.
