Load Cell Transmitter 4-20mA – Accurate Industrial Force & Weight Measurement
Discover Load Cell Transmitters 4-20mA for precise industrial force and weight monitoring. Sensors and Gauges supplies premium transmitters, load cells, and integration solutions.
A Load Cell Transmitter 4-20mA is an essential device in industrial force and weight measurement systems, converting the low-level signal from a load cell into a robust 4-20mA analog output. This standardized current loop signal is ideal for long-distance transmission, integration with PLCs, SCADA, and process control systems. At Sensors and Gauges, we provide high-quality load cell transmitters along with compatible load cells, digital indicators, and complete integration solutions to deliver accurate, reliable, and real-time measurement for industrial applications.
What is a Load Cell Transmitter 4-20mA?
A Load Cell Transmitter 4-20mA takes the millivolt output from a load cell, amplifies and conditions it, and converts it to a 4-20mA current loop signal. This allows long-distance signal transmission without loss of accuracy and provides compatibility with standard industrial control systems.
Key Features:
Converts load cell signals to 4-20mA analog output
Compatible with almost all types of load cells (compression, tension, S-beam, etc.)
High accuracy and linearity
Suitable for harsh industrial environments
Easy integration with PLCs, SCADA, DCS, and data acquisition systems

FAQs
Can a load cell transmitter 4-20mA work with any load cell? Yes, most industrial load cells are compatible, but it’s important to match the transmitter’s input range with the load cell’s output.
Why use 4-20mA instead of voltage signals? The 4-20mA current loop is less susceptible to signal loss and interference over long distances compared to voltage signals.
Are these transmitters suitable for harsh environments? Yes, many models are IP-rated or industrial-grade for reliable operation in challenging conditions.
Can multiple load cells be connected to a single transmitter? Yes, multi-channel or summing transmitters are available for multiple load cell setups.
