Load Cell Resolution and Display Settings



What is Resolution?


Resolution is the size of the steps (or increments) displayed on the weighing scale. It dictates the smallest change in weight that the device will show.



Balancing Resolution, Precision, and Stability


The resolution can be adjusted to optimize the weight reading for clarity and stability:

  • Using the recommended resolution makes the reading more stable and less susceptible to load fluctuations.
  • Using too high resolution makes the reading highly sensitive to small load variations. 



Conclusion: The resolution should always be selected to achieve the best balance between measurement accuracy and display stability, based on the hook’s capacity and load cell acurancy. 



Recommended Resolution 


The table below lists the recommended resolution for various load limits. These settings are designed to balance the system's accuracy with practical, stable display increments.


  • Evo2 – Resolution: 5 kg, Capacity: 2,500 kg, Accuracy: 0.2 %
  • Evo5 – Resolution: 10 kg, Capacity: 5,000 kg,  Accuracy: 0.2 %
  • Evo10 – Resolution: 20 kg, Capacity: 10,000 kg,  Accuracy: 0.2 %
  • Evo20 – Resolution: 40 kg, Capacity: 20,000 kg, Accuracy: 0.2 %
  • Evo25 – Resolution: 50 kg, Capacity: 25,000 kg,  Accuracy: 0.2 %
  • Neo20 / Neo20S – Resolution: 40 kg, Capacity: 20,000 kg,  Accuracy: 0.2 %
  • Neo50 / Neo60 – Resolution: 250 kg, Capacity: 50,000 kg, Accuracy: 0.5 % 
  • Neo100 – Resolution: 500Kg,  Capacity: 100.000Kg, Accuracy: 0,5 
  • S40 – Resolution: 200 kg, Capacity: 40,000 kg,  Accuracy: 0.5 %
  • D10 – Resolution: 50 kg, Capacity: 10,000 kg,  Accuracy: 0.5 %



Example:

  • With an Evo2 (wll of 2,500 kg) and an accuracy of 0.2%, the potential error is +/-5kg. (0.2*2500/100=5).
  • To ensure an easily readable display, a 5Kg resolution is selected. This means the displayed weight will only change in increments of 5Kg.
