AG Series Wireless Load Cell

AG Series Wireless Load Cell

Load Link for 5–500 t Lifts

The AG Series wireless load cell is a rugged load link for Grade 8 shackles, machined from aircraft-grade aluminum with an anti-corrosion finish for maritime and offshore use. Used as a digital dynamometer on cranes and overhead cranes, it delivers accurate suspended-load measurement, water-bag proof testing, and cable tensioning—without cables or complexity.

Why the AG Series (Load Link)

  • Wireless telemetry with the BD-2008 2.4 GHz indicator
  • High strength-to-weight design with minimal stress concentration
  • Offshore-ready materials and coating
  • Quick rigging; software with free graphing and data logging

Typical applications

  • Digital dynamometer for cranes and overhead cranes
  • Suspended-load measurement and water-bag tests
  • Cable/stay-wire tensioning and dynamic load monitoring in marine/offshore operations
