LCM3503 250te Wide Body/Sling Saver Bow Load Shackle

The enquiry for this load cell was initially received by telephone, following a review of the products we had available on our website. The enquiry was from a well known and large oil rig and offshore platform manufacturer, based in the United Arab Emirates.

Their requirement was for 250te shackle load cells for a particular forthcoming project. However, due to budget constraints, they needed the solution to offer versatility for any future projects, so that the load cells could be re-used.

The main criteria we were given was as follows:

• The load cell had to be a shackle style load cell.
• Their preference was was a wide body shackle, or sling saver shackle.
• The construction had to be robust for use in an offshore and heavy industrial environment.
• Had to be manufactured with using a high quality shackle, with full traceability
• The requirement was for 4off shackles. They wanted them supplied for use with a single display, with all 4 load cells summed.
• They also wanted to be able to use the shackles individually, with a battery powered display
