Connection
The load cells on weighing modules can be connected to:
S Carrier‐frequency measuring amplifiers or
S DC meas. amplifiers suitable for strain‐gage based measurement systems.
The wiring assignment of the load cell is shown in Fig. 8.1.

Wiring assignment of the load cell (six‐wire circuitry)
Electrical and magnetic fields often induce interference voltages in the mea
surement circuit. Therefore:
S use shielded, low‐capacitance measurement cables only (HBM cables fulfill
both conditions)
S do not route the measurement cables parallel to power lines and control
circuits. If this is not possible, protect the measurement cable with steel
conduit for example
S avoid stray fields from transformers, motors and contact switches
