The Loadblock Plus is a low capacity, self-indicating compression loadcell, used in many testing and load monitoring applications worldwide. The integral display eliminates the need for a separate display or cable assemble that can be easily damaged. Applications include the measurement of loads associated with the testing of hydraulic presses, cylinders or jacks.
This latest version of our Loadblock has advanced features and benefits providing solutions for today’s complicated load test and force monitoring needs. Features include full function push button controls for tare, units of measure (lbs, kg, kN, and tonnes), peak hold, pre-set tare, audible set-point alarm and an overload counter.
This crucial overload alarm counter is a requirement for many safety and quality control departments as it keeps track of overload events allowing the load cell in question to be removed from service immediately following a calibration voiding overload event. The load cell in question can then be sent out for proper testing and if necessary, recalibration before re-entering service.
The advanced microprocessor based electronics provide the Loadblock Plus with high speed read rates (500/sec), extreme resistance to industrial level noise and unprecedented stability.
This high stability provides the Loadblock Plus with 5000 + divisions and the highest standard resolution of any self-indicating compression load cell on the market today.
The unit also features a RS-485 serial output port allowing for remote viewing with either the handheld Plus Digital Display/Controller or Windows PC Desktop controller data logging software.

The Handheld plus is a rugged and versatile digital handheld display with a broad range of features and is suitable for all Straightpoint load cell products.
At the heart of the ergonomically designed Handheld plus is a powerful PCB providing industry-leading features such as user-selectable units of measure (tonnes, lbs, kg and kN), programmable audible overload alarm (HHP & SW-HHP), peak hold, pre-set tare and a user-resettable (HHP & SW-HHP) overload counter.
This crucial overload alarm counter is a requirement for many safety and quality control departments, as it keeps track of overload events, allowing the load cell in question to be removed from service immediately, following the calibration voiding overload event. The load cell in question can then be sent out for proper testing and, if necessary, recalibration before re-entering service.
The HHP is suitable for connection via cable to any Straightpoint cabled load cell product and easily adapted to any other manufacturers’ load cell product with an mv/v output.
In addition to the standard HHP, the SW-HHP is suitable for connection to any Straightpoint wireless load cell, has a range of up to 1000m/3280ft (ATEX 700m/2300ft) and is supplied as standard with the Radiolink plus load cell.

Originally designed for the marine industry, where wind speed and sea state might be among variables, the product is provided in an IP67-rated, portable case, mounted on which are the connectors (also IP67 rated) that can be used while the case is closed, offering protection from the elements—even snow and ice. The MOSS has also been successful in construction and infrastructure applications where other demands are placed upon it.
Its adaptable multi-sensor functionality gives you the freedom to develop your own Operation Survey and Monitoring solution utilising load cells and other environmental sensors such as anemometers and temperature or humidity sensors.
The MOSS model supplied in a portable case that provides readout, presentation and storage of (multiple) sensor signals. Based on this rugged case the following components are integrated:

The TIMH range is a Wireless Running Line Tensiometer or RLTM built with dockside, marine, offshore, towage and salvage applications in mind. It is particularly useful where there is no anchor or dead end on the line to rig a Straightpoint Radiolink or Loadlink digital dynamometer to measure tension force at speeds up to 20m/min or 65ft/min.
Two versions of the TIMH are available:
- Long-range 2.4GHz version providing industry leading wireless range of 700m or 2300ft to SP's SW-HHP handheld or software options.
- Bluetooth output and can be connected to any smartphone running our free HHP app on iOS or Android at ranges up to 100m or 328ft.
The TIMH is constructed from marine grade stainless steel and is suitable for many wire rope configurations up to 80t and will, as an option, calculate lineout and speed in metres or feet. The TIMH has several mounting points featured in its unique design but if other mounting options are required Straightpoint can provide a custom engineered solution specific to your application.
Available as a wireless or cabled system utilising Straightpoint’s HHP range of handheld displays or SW-MWLC software, this impressive Running Line Dynamometer or RLTM is available to ship from stock, to anywhere in the world within days.
