Electrical connection
The following can be connected for measurement signal conditioning:
Carrier‐frequency amplifier
DC amplifier
designed for strain gauge measurement systems.
The load cells are supplied in the standard version with an 8‐pin plug in a
six‐wire configuration. The load cells are optionally available with a hygienic
design connection cable or with different cable lengths.

Fig. 4.1:
Connector pin assignment
With this connector pin assignment, the output voltage at the measuring amp
lifier is positive when the transducer is loaded (see Fig. 3.1). The connection
assignment for the cables available as accessories can be found in Section 7
on page 16.
4.2 Connection with four
When transducers with a six‐wire configuration are connected to amplifiers
with a four‐wire configuration, the sense leads of the transducer must be con
nected to the corresponding supply leads: Identification (+) with (+) and identi
fication (-) with (-), see Fig. 4.1. This measure also reduces the cable resist
ance of the excitation voltage leads. However, there will be a voltage loss on
the supply leads due to the cable resistance that is still present and not com
pensated for by the six‐wire configuration. A large part of this loss can be
eliminated by a calibration, however, the temperature‐dependent part remains.
