5Kg Load Cell Weight Sensor

This aluminium load cell measures weight up to 5 kg. Together with an HX711 load cell amplifier, scales and other weight measurements can be built with Arduino, ESP32 or Raspberry Pi. The cell is a full bridge with 4 wires and is connected directly to the HX711.

Recommended Accessories:

• Load Cell Amplifier - HX711 Weighing Sensor 24 Bit
• Dupont Jumper Cable Set 20cm 60 Pieces.

Features:

• Full bridge with 4 wires: red, black, white, green
• The arrow on the end face shows the direction of the load
• 2 M4 threaded holes at each end: one end on the base plate, the weighing plate on the other end
• Leave the measuring point in the middle free, fasten only the ends

Application Examples:

• Kitchen, letter and parcel scales
• Monitoring the fill level of containers via the weight
• Measuring weight and weight changes

Documentation:

• Scale with HX711 and Arduino, with calibration (Random Nerd Tutorials)
• Raspberry Pi scale with HX711 (Tutorials for Raspberry Pi, German)
• HX711 guide (SparkFun, different module with the same chip)
