Crosby Straightpoint Loadblock plus Compression Loadcell

The Crosby Straightpoint Loadblock Plus is a compression loadcell with integral display.

Used in many testing and load monitoring applications worldwide for example:

• Pre-lift weight and centre of gravity calculations for large plant and equipment
• Hydraulic ram testing on hydraulic presses, cylinders or jacks

The integral display eliminates the need for a separate display or cable assemble that can be easily damaged. 

This latest version of our Loadblock has advanced features and benefits providing solutions for today’s complicated load test and force monitoring needs.

Features include:

• Push button tare
  
• Units of measure (lbs, kg, kN, and tonnes)
  
• Peak hold
  
• Pre-set tare
  
• Audible set-point alarm
  
• Overload counter

This crucial overload alarm counter is a requirement for many safety and quality control departments as it keeps track of overload events allowing the load cell in question to be removed from service immediately following a calibration voiding overload event. The load cell in question can then be sent out for proper testing and if necessary, recalibration before re-entering service.

The advanced microprocessor based electronics provide the Loadblock Plus with high speed read rates (500/sec), extreme resistance to industrial level noise and unprecedented stability.

This high stability provides the Loadblock Plus with 5000 + divisions and the highest standard resolution of any self-indicating compression load cell on the market today.
