PLND4 Single-Channel Portable Load Indicators
PLND4 Single-Channel Portable Load Indicators
The Model PLND4 Single Channel Load Indicator is a portable battery powered 4 1/2 digit load indicator made for use with any full bridge. Indication is direct. No multipliers are required, thus avoiding ambigious readings. Resolution from 1 pound to 10000 pounds depending on the load capacity of the transducer. Alternate display units are available. Operation is extremely simple. For normal use only two controls are involved: Turn on the power switch, set no load balance or tare reading to zero, and begin reading applied loads.
Features
A calibration check function is included to provide a quick test of the transducer and instrument integrity.
The readout system is fully contained in an aluminum alloy case that is both rugged and durable.
Power is provided by a set of rechargable batteries. Batteries and a recharger, with 110 or 220 Vac power cord, are included within the housing. A detachable power cord is included for recharging.
Battery power allows complete freedom of use and provides 10-15 hours of continous usage depending on transducer resistance. A ratiometric measuring technique prevents battery decay from degrading system accuracy.
When battery voltage has decreased below a functional level, a visual display (flashing “:”) signals that recharging is needed.
