This most advanced Load Cell Tester model LCT-Ultimate is a stand-alone hand-held device that was especially designed for full trouble shooting of strain-gage based load cells. The LCT-Ultimate can check all common types of standard load cells that are available on the market:
4 or 6 wires @ all rated gain outputs.
The LCT-Ultimate provides the user with all essential data needed about the tested load-cell:
- Bridge resistance and integrity
- Physical distortion (possibly caused by overload, shock, load or metal fatigue)
- Checks insulation resistance (can point to moisture or chemical ingress)
Main Features
- Fast testing of load cells and scales
- Can be used to check multi load-cell scale alignment.
- Continuous signal reading allows for checking linearity and repeatability
- Very user friendly, full test within 5 seconds
Specifications
- Input and Output resistance: up to 5000 ohm at 0.5 ohm resolution
- Sense resistance (for 6 wire L/C): up to 500 ohm at 0.1 ohm resolution
