LCT-U ADVANCED DIAGNOSTIC LOAD CELL TESTER The advanced Load Cell Tester Model LCT-U is a stand-alone hand-held device specially designed for fast, comprehensive troubleshooting of strain gauge load cells. The LCT-U can quickly diagnose problems with all common types of load cell available today, including 6-wire load cells (with sense wires). The LCT-U provides the operator with all the 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). ■ Fast, accurate testing of load cells and scales – full test complete within 5 seconds ■ Continuous signal reading allows for checking of linearity and repeatability ■ Very user friendly – pin assignment is printed on front of tester ■ Can check for physical distortion of a load cell ■ Coloured LEDs highlight suspicious readings ■ Can check alignment of multiple load cell scales ■ Operated by standard batteries for portability ■ Works with 4-wire or 6-wire load cells ■ Rugged ABS enclosure and rubber cover ■ Lightweight ■ Ideal tool for installation/commissioning engineers
