* Hydraulic pressure transducer with 3 wires cable * Installation & calibration manual and operator usage instruction SkidWeigh ED2 series operational principal The ED2 SkidWeigh system operational principal is based on the hydraulic pressure transducer mounted in the vehicle lifting hydraulic circuit between lift control valve and lifting cylinder(s). There is need for external switches, proximity sensors or specific operational procedure of lifting the forks in order to obtain a proper load weight readout. -
Page 3: Pressure Transducer Installation
SkidWeigh “weighing cycle” will be automatically activated every time load is lifted just above the ground. The increase in pressure is converted in an electronic signal at the sample rate of 16000 readings per session which is converted into a load weight reading utilizing proprietary software algorithm. Pressure transducer installation The pressure transducer must be installed in the lifting hydraulic line between the lift control valve and lift cylinder(s). - Page 4 Electrical power short circuit protection - All SkidWeigh systems are internally short circuit protected with resettable fuse. There is no need to install external inline fuse in orange wire connected to the ignition switch. - Automotive 60 V load dump protection -Reversal power supply protection “Quick test to determine if electrical connections are done right”...
- Page 5 Important If you want the system to show load weight in pounds, use the known calibration load weight in pounds during the system calibration and enter that value accordingly. The same would apply if you want the system to show load weight in kilograms then use the known calibration load weight in kilograms and enter that value into the system accordingly.
- Page 6 Calibration of loaded forks being lifted just above the ground Pick up a known load weight and lower it to the ground. In our example we will use a known calibration load weight of 4000 pounds * Button is used to enter into weighing calibration procedure and shift to the next digit. * Button Arrow Up is used to input digital value 0 to 9, wrap around.
- Page 7 - Before going to Mode 6 please make sure that the “Known load weight” is ready to be lifted. The loaded forks must be on the ground. (No hydraulic pressure in the lifting hydraulic circuit) - Press the “M” button to advance to Mode 6 and immediately lift the “Known load weight”...
- Page 8 Overload Alert Value Input (Optional) As soon SkidWeigh system weighing function calibration is done the loaded forks must be lowered to ground. The Mode 7 digit automatically will be shown and will remain on LED display until overload alert value is inputed into the system. With LED display showing “Mode 7” you have to enter the overload alert value for that vehicle / application.
- Page 9 Operator Usage Guide 1.To initiate load weighing cycle you must lower loaded forks to ground 2. The Mode LED digit will show number 8. System is ready to weigh the load 3. Lift loaded forks just above the ground and within few seconds LED display will show weight.
