MCE Load Weigher
The MCE Load Weigher is designed for use with isolated platform elevator cars. The accuracy of
the load weigher depends on the condition of the rubber isolation pads. If they are old, cracked
or hard, the performance of the load weigher will suffer. Similarly, if the wrong pad material is
used, the deflection (with load) can be incorrect. Please refer to “Verify Performance” on page 5-
66 to verify the performance of the pads. There are three potential sensor installation methods:
• Method #1: New or replacement installation with target bracket near the middle bottom of
the floor. Please refer to “Center of Gravity vs. Center of Floor” on page 5-62 (preferred
method).
• Method #2: Replacement installations re-using the original load weigher location for tar-
get bracket. Please refer to “Installation Method # 2” on page 5-67.
• Method #3: Sensor on top of the car (predisposes sensor to damage and adjustment prob-
lems). Please refer to “Installation Method # 3 ” on page 5-67
Increasing the weight in the car must always increase clearance between the proximity sensor and
the target for proper operation.
