SAFE LOAD INDICATOR FOR CRANES
MC320
SAFE LOAD INDICATOR SYSTEM
The MC320 provides the operator with information he needs
in order to make lifts within the crane’s operating limits.
Primarily designed for mobile cranes, this system can
be installed on virtually any crane used in any type
of environment. It is installed and calibrated based
on the load chart of each crane which takes into
consideration specific load and geometric limits
on boom length, angle and
operating radius.
