DCell is a high speed and high precision digitizing load cell conditioner, along with linearization and temperature compensation.
It was the ability to convert standard strain gauge load cells into digital load cells. Available output formats include the RS485, ASCII, Modbus, CAN and MantraCAN (J1939).
All are 4 wire bus and power formats offering connection of up to 32 sensors on just 4 wires.
