Product Description
Signal Link is a DIN-rail load cell signal conditioner with a built-in OLED display. It converts the low-level mV/V signal from strain-gauge load cells into clean 4–20 mA, 0–10 V and bipolar analog, RS-485 Modbus RTU and relay control. Four front-panel keys and the on-board display let you calibrate, tare and diagnose right at the cabinet, so a single 25 mm module replaces the amplifier, panel indicator, comms gateway and setpoint logic between your load cells and your PLC.
The display
Commission at the rail.
A 64 × 48 white OLED shows live weight, units and status. Four keys walk the six on-device menus, so you tare, calibrate and scale the outputs standing at the cabinet.
The working side
Every port, mapped.
Analog out, USB-C, load cell and power along the top edge; RS-485 and the relay block below. Every connection is a detachable screw terminal, printed on the housing.
The fit
One 25 mm slot.
Snaps onto standard 35 mm DIN rail and runs from the cabinet's 12–30 V DC supply. Pluggable terminals on both faces mean a swap never means rewiring the panel.
One conditioner, every output.
A single module replaces the stack of discrete amplifiers, isolators and transmitters that normally sits between your load cells and your control system.
High-speed acquisition
5 V excitation sampled from 10 to 7,200 Hz, resolving 1,000,000 counts per mV/V.
Universal analog output
Four selectable modes: 4–20 mA, ±20 mA, 0–10 V and ±10 V, at ±0.03% FS into 1 kΩ.
Dual digital communication
RS-485 and USB-C both carry Modbus RTU. Daisy-chain up to 32 units on one network.
Relay control and I/O
Three relays switch 250 VAC / 30 VDC at 5 A, plus one isolated control input.
System-level calibration
Cal PLC trims the analog output across five points, calibrating load cell to PLC end to end.
Process application modes
Auto Fill, Manual Fill, Check-Weight and Pass-Band drive the relays straight from setpoints.
Smart filtering and stability
Moving-average, autoranging and auto-engaged FIR filters with zero-tracking hold readings steady.
On-device configuration
Six front-panel menus set every parameter on the module itself. No laptop, no software.
Weighing and force measurement applications.
Signal Link vs. Competitors.
The signal conditioners engineers cross-shop, side by side.

What ships with every Signal Link.
Signal Link conditioner
The 25 mm module with its DIN-rail clip fitted, ready to snap straight onto the rail.
Pluggable terminal blocks
Fitted top and bottom, so the module can be swapped later without rewiring the panel.
Terminal screwdriver
Sized for the terminal blocks, so the module can be wired and commissioned without hunting for a driver.
Every Signal Link is covered from the date of purchase.

Data Sheets
Try it before it ships.
A working digital twin running the same firmware that ships in the box. Drag the load cell to apply weight, work the four keys, and watch the analog, Modbus and relay outputs respond in real time.
Hold a key about half a second for its long-press action. The arrow keys on your keyboard work too.
