Why Choose the Unitronics URS-02LC-8 Load Cell Input Module?
The Unitronics URS-02LC-8 is a 2-channel load cell and strain gauge input module designed for integration with Unitronics UniStream Remote I/O systems. It enables precise weight and force measurement in industrial automation applications by interfacing directly with load cells and bridge-based sensors.
Engineered for demanding automation environments, the module provides high-accuracy signal acquisition with 24-bit resolution, enabling reliable measurement of small changes in force or weight. The URS-02LC-8 integrates seamlessly with UniStream distributed I/O architectures, allowing measurement modules to be installed close to the sensing equipment while communicating with the PLC via the remote I/O network.
With support for two independent load cell inputs and configurable filtering and sampling, the module is widely used in weighing systems, process automation, material handling and machine monitoring applications.
