For the development of the latest product of the WeightWatcher Light series, the MultiRope measuring system, our development division could rely on the knowhow gathered over many years. Great store was set by the ease of installation and the request put forward by many customers to provide a reasonably priced but high-quality overload measuring system which meets the requirements of EN 81. The applications in the range of 4 to 26 mm rope diameters also meet the requirements. Measuring ranges of up to max. 10,000 kg (optional for Multirope 300) allow a wide variety of applications.

 

Highlights:

 

• two types of sensor for 200 and 300 mm clamping widths

• for 4 to 26 mm rope diameters

• measuring range up to 10,000 kg

• 2 freely programmable output relays

• integrated evaluation unit

 

 

Method of function:

 

Only a few minutes are needed to install the MultiRope sensors: The installation only requires the screws of the retaining strap to be loosened and the sensor to be put against the rope. The retaining strap is then closed again and the screws are tightened up until the rope is pressed against the sensor body.

 

A specific tightening torque must not be applied. No special tools are required. Thanks to the integrated evaluation unit no additional cables are needed to connect the sensor and evaluation unit.

 

The unit can be configured using three keys and the 4-digit LED display. The unit is connected to the control system by means of 2 freely programmable alarm relays. After the MultiRope sensor has been calibrated, the evaluation unit displays the lift car load. As soon as the parameters for the 3 output relays are entered using the built-in keys the unit is ready for operation.
