JAD LCA
Load cell amplifier board

The JAD load cell amplifier board converts mv signals from a load cell to a 0V to 10V range that can be dealt with in normal data acquisition equipment.

The JAD LCA ver 4 is an extremely robust and cost effective linear load cell amplifier that has a gain range from 100X  to 1000X amplification of the input signal, the unit also has a built in 10Hz filter. And a 6 wire excitation control system for use in long wire applications.
