Magtrol’s Load Monitoring Units are used for measuring load, force and weight from signals generated by strain gauge transducers. Specifically designed for use with Magtrol’s Load Measuring Pins and Load-Force- Weight Sensors, the LMU Series provides excitation voltage while conditioning the bridge output signal. Each unit contains DIP-switches and jumpers for greater flexibility and complete adaptability. User-defined alarm limits can be programmed into the unit, which when combined with our sensors, provides a safe and rugged measurement system that continuously monitors for short-circuits and interrupted signal lines. Magtrol LMUs are specially designed for use in harsh environments and are suitable for crane security systems.
