SK-02 Series | Cable force Transducer - 1

CABLE FORCE TRANSDUCER FEATURES ▪ Suitable for cable diameters: 8 ... 36 mm ▪ Sealed force sensor with 350 Ω strain gauges ▪ Specially designed for retrofitting in existing crane equipment ▪ Brass supports allow smooth mechanical cable guidance ▪ IP 66 protection class ▪ Stainless steel construction ▪ Quick and easy installation ▪ Easy to mount directly on fixed point of cable ▪ Reliable and economical Fig. 1: SK-02 | Cable Force Transducer The SK-02 cable sensor is a low cost load cell specially designed to measure the tension force on hoisting rope. Its installation is very easy and do not require the hoist to be dismantled nor modified. The SK-02 sensor family covers a large range of cables from diameter 8 to 36 mm corresponding to lifting loads of 8 (~800 kN kg) to 150 (~15 kN tons). Together with a load conditioner (LMU Series) and a digital display (AN Series, GAD Series), Magtrol SK-02 cable sensors constitute an complete measuring system for visualizing and continuously monitoring loads and detecting overloads. The SK-02 Cable Sensor is recommended for measuring load and overload to ensure the safety of industrial lifting installations, overhead cranes, winches and hoists. It is perfectly suitable for implementation on existing lifting systems in order to upgrade in compliance with actual safety standards without heavy modification. It is recommend to be used with a load conditioners (Magtrol LMU Series) easily coupled with a digital display (AN Series, GAD Series) OPERATING PRINCIPLE Once installed, the SK-02 Sensor creates a slight deflection on the cable. When the cable is subjected to tension load (F), the geometric deformation is acting as lateral forces (P) which are measured by the force sensor (A). After measurement and conversion, the corresponding signal represents the actual load applied to the cable. © 2021 MAGTROL | Due to continual product development, Magtrol reserves the right to modify specifications witho
