Load Cell Tester
The LCT-U can quickly diagnose problems with all common types of strain gauge load cell available, including 6-wire load cells (with sense wires). It is a stand-alone, hand-held device specially designed for fast, comprehensive troubleshooting.
It immediately provides the operator with all essential data about the load-cell being tested, including the bridge resistance and integrity, physical distortion (possibly caused by overload, shock load or metal fatigue) and insulation resistance (which can highlight moisture or chemical ingress due to casing or cable damage). Errors are clearly shown by a red LED illuminating.
Key features
- Fast, accurate testing within just 5 seconds
- Coloured LEDs highlight suspicious readings
- Can check for physical distortion of a load cell
- Lightweight and powered using 4 x AA batteries (not included)
- Ideal tool for installation/commissioning engineers
