Description
The LPMC is a wireless load shackle: it measures the load on the rigging point and sends the readings by radio (2.4 GHz). It is fully weatherised to IP67 and comfortable in the most challenging RF environments.
The rated load (safe working load, SWL) is 9000 kg with a 5:1 safety factor. Factory calibrated, the accuracy with the original bobbin is typically ±1 % of load or ±50 kg, whichever is greater, and ±2 % or ±70 kg with a non-original bobbin. Units kg, lbs, tonnes, ton, ton (US) or kN; zero trim on the shackle.
A load centralising bobbin and an anti-rotational bracket are included. The rigging profile is less than 100 mm, the dimensions are 174 × 174 × 56 mm, the protection rating is IP67. It operates at −20 … +55 °C on 2 × AA lithium batteries (Energizer L91): about 3.5 months in continuous operation, about 2.8 years at 2 hours per day.
