MAITEACEMAITEACE 47475.35.3 Replacing a SensorReplacing a SensorAntennaAntennaHeavily damaged antennas (ripped out, sheared off,wire exposed and fraying etc.) should be replacedto ensure effective communication between thesensor and the cabin mounted display unit.This procedure may be followed without removing thesensor from the crane if it is safe to do so. If removed,an angle sensor must be re-calibrated duringreinstallation for correct angle display (see the anglesensor installation section of the user’s manual).1. Place the crane, boom, jib or ball hook such thatthe sensor is safely accessible.2. Clean dust, grime and water from the sensor.3. Identify the short black whip antenna and thewhite hex bolt securing it.4. Inspect the antenna for signs of obviousphysical damage.5. Carefully unscrew the white nylon hex boltcompletely and slide it up the antenna.6. Grip the antenna by the base of the black plasticsheathing and pull it straight out of the hole inwhich it is seated. Place the old antenna aside.7. Slide the white nylon hex bolt to the middle ofthe length of the new antenna.8. Coat the exposed metal foot of the new antennawith an electrical insulating compound bycarefully inserting it in the mouth of thecompound tube.9. Hold the new antenna by the black plasticsheathing and guide it through the hole in thesensor box. Carefully seat the antenna in itsmating connector. When the antenna iscorrectly seated, pulling on it will be met withlight resistance.10.Carefully re-thread, screw-in and tighten thewhite nylon hex bolt to secure the antenna inplace. Do not overtighten.11. Reinstall the sensor if necessary (if removedfrom the boom or jib, an angle sensor willrequire re-calibration during the installationprocedure, see the angle sensor installationsection of the user’s manual).12.Verify that the sensor functions properly.57/16 in.wrenchFigure: Unscrew the white nylon hex6Figure: Pull out the antenna8Electrical insulatingcompoundFigure: Coat the exposed metal foot of the antennaWhite nylon hex boltTA011 AntennaSensor boxAntenna receptacleFigure: Install the new antennaIMPORTANT!

4848 The GS820 SystemThe GS820 System5.45.4 Load CellsLoad Cells5.4a Reading AccuracyLSILSI flat bar load links are pre-calibrated at thefactory. No “zeroing” or other calibration is requiredon installation. Each link is heat treated to age thesteel and ensure stable readings for many years; theload cells are individually temperature compensatedto guarantee accuracy. LSILSI flat bar load links arecalibrated to indicate between 100% and 104% oftheir Safe Working Load (SWL).LSILSI load pins, line riding tensiometers andcompression cells must be calibrated at installationand every time thereafter the installation, the loadsensor or the transmitter is changed.SAE J 159 4.2.1 recommends load indicatingdevices should show not less than 100% of theactual load and not more than 110% of the actualload.5.4b Load TestingLSILSI recommends testing the load cell every year foraccuracy. The simplest way of testing a load cell is tolift at least two known weights. A test weight should beknown with an accuracy of ±1%. If the load cell isinstalled at the boom tip dead end, all additionalequipment such as blocks, slings, sensors, etc. shouldalso be known to an accuracy of ±1%.Determine the accuracy of the tested system withthe following formula:(Reference: SAE-J-159 7.3)The test loads must be significantly relative to theload cell capacity. The minimum test weight isabout 20% of the safe working load; a good testweight is greater than 50% of the SWL. Forexample, a 30 000 lb load cell on four parts of linehas a SWL of 120 000 lb; the minimum test load inthis case would be 24 000 lb, a good test loadwould be 60 000 lb or more.5.4c CareBattery. Lithium batteries older than 18 months old(alkaline batteries over 6 months old) should bechanged at the first available planned inspectioneven if there is not yet a low battery warning. Thiswill avoid costly delays in the field.Corrosion. Verify that no corrosion is visible on thebattery holder inside the load cell transmitter. If sometrace of corrosion is visible, rub it off gently and puta small amount of dielectric grease* on each batteryholder post to protect the contacts.Mechanical stresses. Verify the load cell sides fordents or heavy scratches. The side of the load cellunder the transmitter box is the most sensitiveregion. Engraving a number in this area will affectload cell accuracy and reliability. If the transmitterbox has been hit and the box does not fit perfectly tothe underlying link, please call LSILSI to have itrepaired. Engraving on the transmitter box sides willnot affect reading.Seal. If the transmitter box has been removed itmust be correctly resealed with RTV non-corrosivesilicone.Antenna. Small scratches on the antenna will notaffect radio communications. A heavy bending of theantenna or bare sections on the wire may reducethe radio efficiency.Hex bolts. The hex head bolts on the transmitterbox are there to protect the antenna and to hold thetransmitter box on the load cell link. If one or bothhex nuts are scratched, it will not affect the load cellreadings or operation. If the bolt head is bent orsheared verify that the transmitter box fits tightly tothe load cell link before contacting LSILSI forreplacement bolts.Indicated LoadActual Load X 100 = % of Load* Dow Corning dielectric grease № 4WARNING!Heavy shock may affect loadindication accuracy. Inspect the load cellregularly for clearly visible dents orscratches. Test the load indication if collisiondamage is visible.!!
