Container Adjustment
The
Container Adjustment
method can be used as a standalone calibration method as long as the mass of the test container is evenly
distributed over all four corner castings. It can also be used as an adjustment method of the
calibration per Twistlock method.
In this
case it has to be performed after the Twistlock calibration.
For this calibration procedure:
The Lasstec system has to be completely installed on operational crane.
A test container with a weight between 20 and 30 tons must be available. The test mass must be evenly distributed over all four
container castings of the test container. The total mass of the container must be known as exact as possible. To achieve the
maximum accuracy of the Lasstec System, a test container weight with a maximal tolerance of
±
100 Kg is recommended.
DANGER!
Observe the safety regulation of your lifting device on which the Lasstec
weighing system is installed!
Conductix-Wampfler will not be responsible for system malfunctioning if the calibration
is not correctly done.
The procedure consist of lifting the test container three times, an average value of the measured weight is calculated and compared with
the actual weight of the container (this value has to be entered by the user) to calibrate the corresponding coefficients used for the
calculation of the stabilized weight.
The main Window of the Container Adjustment program chapter looks like this:
