Flexa - Wireless Shackle Load Cell

Description

A REVOLUTIONARY SOLUTION FOR WIRELESS LOAD CELLS
We have put a lot of effort into developing the module that contains the electronics and battery holders. Everything has been designed to isolate the electronic circuits as much as possible with a double protective hermetic shell.

EXCLUSIVE DESIGN
The batteries are compact and borrow design features from the camera industry to ensure stable performance and long life. The cylinder shape of the enclosure limits shocks and the anti-rotation ring is integrated into the pin, leaving the upper part of the shackle free.

ALL PROTECTED, ALL SIMPLE
A magnetic key for switching on and off. The switch is a fully sealed magnetic reed. No tools needed to access the batteries, just unscrew the cap. The impact-resistant polycarbonate shell is semi-transparent to see the RGB multifunction LED.

HOW IT WORKS

System designed to measure loads in real-time with weight reading every second. Battery-saving smart transmission function, transmitting every second when the load change exceeds a configurable threshold, less often when the load is stable. The distances between the cells and the gateway depend on the environmental conditions (typically up to 600m in line-of-sight).



In case of problems in signal propagation, a repeater can be placed between the cell area and the gateway. The distances between the repeater(s) and the gateway depend on the environmental conditions (typically up to 700m in line-of-sight). Up to 5 repeaters can be managed by a single gateway.



SIGNAL QUALITY AND TRANSMISSION RANGE
Every radio transmission is affected by environmental conditions. The distances calculated in line of sight on an open field are different from the real ones in presence of different obstacles. The graphs below show different ranges based on the environment in which the system operates.
