Optical sensors are easy to set up, easy to use
The new B45 series of intelligent optical sensors from ABB Control is designed to offer maximum versatility and ease of use for a wide variety of control applications.
Flexible bar code scanner designed to adapt
Thanks to the Adaptascan's autofocus capability and WindowsT-based configuration software, changes in focus, scan pattern, label format and communication requirements can be made on-line.
As accuracy is vital in the lifting industry, the new generation models provide optional increased accuracy of 0.05% of the load, with improved resolution.
Other optional features, formerly limited to one model, are now universally available, including totalising, data logging and RS232 communication.
Battery recharging and replacement has been improved significantly and now includes either 2kh use for disposable batteries, or 1.5kh use between charges on a standard rechargeable.
This is accomplished by advanced technology in the built-in electronics, creating an automatic sleep mode designed for longer battery life.
All units will be available in shackle or hook type design with a minimum capacity of 0.25t and maximum capacity 300t (shackle type only).
The maximum hook capacity is 32t.
In addition, the load cells' small dimensions and light weight provide portability and minimum headroom loss.
Another distinct feature is their unique shape that ensures the user's safety: All models offer either a standard remote display, a removable display or a large 2in display.
These features ensure the users personal safety, as under no circumstances does he have to approach the load in order to read the result.
All Ron Crane Scales load cells are available with very short delivery times.
