OCS-L Mini Crane Scale Information

The OCS-L mini crane scale is a compact load weighing device, measuring just 290mm long it can be easily carried around with you. Being made from die-cast aluminium its also lightweight, starting at just 0.7kg.

This load weighing system comes complete with a top shackle and a bottom ‘S’ hook, so anchoring and loading is easy. Ideal for weighing loads in warehouses for calculating shipping costs etc.

The 20cm LCD display is back lit, thus easier to see in dim light. The soft touch function buttons enable modes such as hold, tare, zero, graduations and unit selections in kg. An overload alarm and auto power off complete the functions.

Requiring 3 x AA batteries for operation, however thanks to its low power consumption this provides around 120 hours of continual use. Full specifications and the user guide can be found above.

When using these devices it is important to take into account that when Tare functions are used the overload/max SWL will also need reducing. For example with a 300kg scale you lift an empty 100kg box and then use the tare function to ignore its weight (thus zeroing) the 100kg must be subtracted from the SWL for the overload weight, thus in this instance the new overload weight will be 200kg.

Should you not find anything to suit your requirements with one of our crane scales then take a look at our tension load cell range. They use the same strain gauge method to obtain the readings you need but have a different design. Typically larger loads can be handled with load cells
