Loadstar Sensors Inc. of Mountain View has launched a wireless weight
measurement kit that enables product designers and end users to easily build
an accurate and reliable weight measurement system. The kit contains four of
Loadstar's patent-protected CS Series capacitive sensors (choice of either
50lb. or 100lb. capacity), one DS-2100 WiFi display and summing device with
wireless connection capability, LoadVUE software for simplifying measurement
and calibration tasks using a PC, as well as all the data cables (four
MX-500 data cables) and a 9V power adapter to connect and power the system.
All the components of the kit are designed to work seamlessly with each
other, making the creation of a weight measurement system effortless. 
 
The components of the weight measurement kit provide several key features
that make it easy for users to build an accurate and reliable load
measurement system:
 
CS-Series Sensors

*      Integrated electronics require no additional signal conditioner. This
helps cut down the number of components required to put together a weight
measurement system.

*      Compact and rugged stainless steel packaging makes it possible to
build devices that can withstand rough handling. 

*      Small size and threaded mounting holes provided on the top and bottom
of the sensors, makes it possible to mount them conveniently and fit them
into tight spaces.

*      Low power consumption (only 10mW) makes them suitable for use with
batteries, if desired. 

 

DS-2100 WiFi display 

*      Accepts input from up to four CS-Series load sensors and
automatically sum loads from all connected sensors. No separate summing box
is required.

*      Displays calibrated loads in pounds in increments of 0.1 lb up to
999.9 lbs. on a bright red LED display

*      Can connect wirelessly to a PC using 802.11b WiFi interface. This
makes it possible for users to calibrate the weight measurement system as
well as log readings on the PC without any connecting wires.

 
LoadVUE software

*      Connects wirelessly with the DS-2100 WiFi device to enable users to
perform calibration on up to four attached sensors from a PC, display
individual and total loads on screen, and log to a data file. 

 
"The Wireless Weight Measurement Kit is a one of a kind, easy-to-use
solution for weight and load measurements," says Div Harish, Co-founder &
CEO of Loadstar Sensors Inc. "Users don't have to struggle to put together a
large number of disparate components. Just connect the sensors to the
display and the power adapter provided in the kit and you are ready to start
taking measurements. Place a plate on the sensors and you have a scale!"
 
The kit is offered at an introductory price of $999, and represents a
savings of over 30% on the price of individual components bought separately.
Volume pricing is available upon request.
