Features and benefits:

• Compact and light - perfect for stage riggers
dealing with limited space
• Matt black finish - disappears into stage rigging
for zero audience distraction
• Unique wired and wireless capability via a
simple toggle switch - one load cell for both
show-critical events (wired) and more general
weighing/monitoring (wireless)
• Lighter, more compact cabling - eliminates
overly heavy and chunky cabling and gives
stage riggers a more portable solution
• User configurable overload alarms in both
wired and wireless modes - easy to set on site
for simple overload protection
• Constructed from high strength alloy steel
- for best strength to size ratio
• Accepts standard shackles

StageSafe is a 3t capacity load cell designed

exclusively for the entertainment industry.

Offering the accuracy of a load cell (0.3% of applied load) while

retaining the best headroom possible (129mm/5”) its matt black
finish blends in perfectly as part of the stage rigging ensuring
there are no distractions from the stage.

StageSafe boasts a unique switching feature allowing it to be

used as a wireless or wired load cell.

Wireless mode allows simple, cable-free load monitoring and

overload protection across the entire rigging setup and up to 100
N.B: Supplied without shackles. StageSafe load cells may be monitored and logged real time on
a tablet or laptop using our SW-MWLC software.

Wired mode gives the reassurance and dependability of a

cabled load cell meaning it is suitable for show-critical events.
The data can then be relayed to a single handheld display or to
a PLC or external controller via our range of accessories.

StageSafe shares the industry-leading specifications of other

Straightpoint wireless products – 1200 hour battery life, 700

 Loadlink plus
Known worldwide as the original electronic force
measurement device to feature an integral
display, the Loadlink plus has been in production
since 1979. Over the years the line has been
expanded and the Loadlink plus is now used on a
daily basis for load monitoring and heavy lifts
ranging in capacity from 1t to 300t, by a variety of
industrial and commercial industries including
manufacturing, transportation, agriculture, oil
and gas, utilities, aerospace and clean energy.

This latest version of the well-known product has advanced

features and benefits providing solutions for today’s
complicated load test and force monitoring needs. The
Loadlink plus features full function push button controls for
tare, choice of units (lbs, kg, kN, and tonnes), peak hold, preset
tare, audible set-point alarm and an overload counter.

The advanced microprocessor based electronics provide the

Loadlink plus with high speed read rates (500/sec), extreme
resistance to industrial level noise and unprecedented
stability. This high stability gives the Loadlink plus over 5,000
divisions and the highest standard resolution of any digital
dynamometer on the market today. Constructed of high-grade
aircraft quality aluminium, Straightpoint’s advanced internal
design structure allows the product to once again top the
charts with an unmatched weight to strength ratio.
Straightpoint’s link style dynamometers are on average 30%
lighter than our closest competitor with the same safety rating.

Optional connection to Straightpoint’s Handheld

plus (SU3343) or Straightpoint’s Desktop controller
data logging software package (DCP10M). Features and benefits:
• Large 25mm/1” LCD display
• High accuracy
• Selectable units te, lbs, kN & kg
• High resolution
• 100Hz Peak hold
• Push button tare
• Light weight
• Preset tare
• Overload counter
• 90db Audible set point alarm
• RS-485 serial output
• Design validated by F.E.A.
