Power Jacks Ltd. (UK) - Compact size robust design.

Driven by customer demand for a low weight and compact Load Link, Power Jacks Load Monitoring Solutions have designed and manufactured the smallest in their range to date.

The 5Te Load Link weighs only 1.5kg and provides the ideal solution when accurate and reliable tensile load monitoring is required for lifting applications, but where space is an issue.

Hird Lifting was one of the first companies to use the 5Te Load link produced by Power Jacks. Having expressed their need for a compact and accurate product, Power Jacks went onto supply Hird Lifting with a product fitting their requirements.

The newly designed Load Link not only proves a hit in size; it also has an accuracy of <0.5% of applied load, a safety factor of 5:1, environmentally rated at IP67, 500 hour battery life using 2 x AAA’s, and comes in wireless and cabled versions.

This model is suitable for all industry sectors, including Marine, Offshore and Subsea environments. In particular, ideal for mobile applications and services, as well as service and maintenance vehicles.

Having the expertise in-house to design and manufacture products from the Power Jacks facility in Ellon, the Load Monitoring team are quick to respond to market demand. The 5Te Load link joins a portfolio of 12 Load Link designs from 12.5Te to 500Te as standard, as well as compressive Load Cells, Load Shackles, Load Pins, Running Line Tensionmeter, Load Cell Displays and Data Logging.
