Load cell for Demag AC 350/6

The load cell, part number 52360012, functions as a sensor within the crane control and safety systems. It measures the weight of the load being lifted or supported by the crane and converts this mechanical force into an electrical signal. This signal is processed by the crane control system to monitor the load and assist in preventing dangerous overload conditions during operation. It serves as a key component of the load moment indicator system.

This component is designed for use on Demag AC 350/6 all-terrain cranes. It integrates into the crane's existing electronic architecture to provide data required for safe lifting operations. Proper calibration and function of this sensor are necessary for the crane to operate within its specified safety parameters.

Load cells in heavy lifting equipment typically operate as force transducers. They translate the tension or compression applied to the crane structure into measurable data. By continuously monitoring these forces, the system ensures that the operator receives accurate information regarding the load status, which is necessary for maintaining stability and structural integrity during various lifting tasks.
