Loadstar Sensors Launches DS-3000 Series Display and Controller to Work with Award Winning Load Cells
The DS-3000 Series interface device for the iLoad Series load cells offers integrated control & display functions at a reasonable price point.
August 20 2008
Loadstar Sensors Inc. of Fremont, California has launched a new family of displays that are built to work seamlessly with its successful line of load cells. The new DS-3000 four channel display is an integral device that incorporates display and controller functions combined into one. A user can connect up to four iLoad series load cells and view individual and/or total loads in three different units: Kilograms, Pounds and Newtons. Additionally, a user can interface via USB uplink to plot/chart the data to a PC. Optional relay outputs allow users to activate relays based on load limits in order to control up to 2 external devices.
The DS-3000 provides many key features in order to simplify the process of building a load measurement system:
o Accepts input from up to four iLoad series load cells
o Automatically sums loads from all connected load cells
o View individual load cell readings
o Display resolution 0.01 - 999.9
o Display units include Kilograms, Pounds or Newtons
o Optional Lithium-Ion Polymer battery for backup
o Optional wireless: Bluetooth or Zigbee
o Allows connectivity to PC using USB uplink
o Optional relays control up to 2 external devices
o 4-Digit LED display with 0.56 inch tall digits for easy readability
"The new DS-3000 simplifies the measurement and display of loads and outputs the data directly to a personal computer's usb port," says Div Harish, Co-Founder & CEO of Loadstar Sensors, Inc. "For users who need to plot and chart the data we offer LoadVUE software that allows users to log to a Microsoft Excel data file. Moreover, a user can create intelligent load based applications with the included relays that can be turned on or off at specified pre-set loads."
