The trip point provides a signal that the user may employ depending on his requirements, e.g.

• for load limiting in lifting systems,
• to limit the speed as a function of the load on traversing,
• to limit the effort applied for pulling.

This universal load cell is recommended for its simplicity and quick-lifting capability.

Operating Principle

The load cell operates by the movement of metal within its elastic limits. This movement acts on an adjustable switch giving an “all-or-nothing signal. The position of the adjustable pin sets the capacity range. The central “UNIVERSAL” fixing bracket is adapted to suit wire ropes from 5 to 16 mm (model HF32/1) and from 17 to 26 mm (model HF32/2).
