T24-SYS Loadcell Telemetry System

The T24 telemetry range is a flexible radio telemetry system designed to provide high accuracy measurement data from strain gauge loadcells.

The basic system displays the data on a computer via an interface unit that is powered from a USB port. Other systems are available that allow the data to be read on a compact handheld display unit.

T24 toolkit software is available for set-up and data access using a computer with a Windows operating system, Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8 or 10 is required. The software can output data as a standard csv file for use with a spreadsheet or other data processing software.

The licence free 2.4GHz direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) radio technology offers high integrity, error free communications which can co-exist with other wireless technologies such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth® and Zigbee®. If you have concerns about a wireless system functioning reliably at your location we have a set of evaluation modules available for test purposes.

If the system is supplied with a loadcell it will normally be calibrated to read the loadcell output in the same force units as the loadcell calibration. A traceable system certificate will be supplied for this calibration.

Alternative calibrations are possible; please consult our engineering department to discuss your requirements.
