I'm using a small (25 mm dia) button load cell for a static test stand. I built it to test small motors, but presently, I'm using it to check electric motors with propellers and electric ducted fans (EDF's).
I believe the capacity of the load cell is 50 kg, and I obtained it through Amazon.
With this load cell it's difficult to obtain a stable tare and its recovery, say if there's a load on it and removed, it poor. This can cause it to be off a hundred grams or more for following measurements. I'm using a good quality analog to digital converter that is capable of high resolution and the system is Arduino based.
If you are familiar with this application would you please advise on a source for a good quality and not-too-expensive button load cell? I know that real good ones (with Brand names like Omega) can be very expensive. I'm willing to spend a hundred $ or maybe more if I can obtain good results.
Thank you
