Most importantly, it is<br \/> a very fast procedure that gets your scale back to work in rapid time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> \u2022 Ease of use is also continued with installation or replacement of digital load cell (DLC) cards or 225D mainboards in the truck scale\u2019s weight indicator. The 225D indicator can detect whether either option has been replaced using checksums and board identification numbers. The new DLC card or 225D mainboard will be reconfigured to the existing scale by the indicator acknowledging the new card and asking the user to verify if it is new. This simple reconfiguration process saves time and effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> \u2022 One of the most important upgrades the SmartCell\u00ae digital <a href=\"https:\/\/www.centralcarolinascale.com\/blog\/2020\/01\/20\/is-your-truck-scale-subject-to-damage-from-dirt-grit-and-grime-are-your-load-cells-exposed-to-water\/\">load cell<\/a> offers is the ability for truck scale dealers to change out the load cell in a matter of minutes. Normally, with analog load cells, dealers will have to check, replace, or pull a whole host of wires from the summing box when changing one out. Now, Cardinal\u2019s digital load cells can be removed and replaced in as little as five minutes without any specialized equipment. It really is that short and simple!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> \u2022 Electronic truck scales with analog load cells require many more moving parts. With an eight-cell system there are up to 100 wires that have to be prepared and terminated, up to 14 configuration jumpers to be set for proper operation, and sense lines must be utilized to regulate excitation voltage. This complicated wiring system lengthens time spent when trying to simply replace a load cell and calibrate it. This cumbersome process is no longer needed with the ARMOR\u00ae digital system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> \u2022 The ARMOR\u2019s simple load cell connector design and the axis\u00ae frictionless centering system\u2019s unique construction permit just a few steps for load cell replacement. After turning off power and jacking up the weighbridge a minimal amount, a single technician<br \/> simply has to remove the dual load cell cables, remove two bolts that hold the cell to the weighbridge, and place a new load cell in its place. Next, after applying cleaner and Dielectric grease to the load cell cable connectors, the connectors are reconnected, and the load cell bolts are tightened. It\u2019s just that simple\u2014not another moment needs to be spared on time-consuming load cell replacements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> \u2022 If you have to spend large amounts of time dealing with wiring analog load cells, the SmartCell\u00ae digital load cell streamlines the tedious task of getting your new load cell in operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We offer Cardinal load cells which is the point of this article. We also offer various other brands that you likely have heard of like Artech, Tedea Huntleigh, Sensortronics, and Revere Transducers.
