Operation of Load Weighing

How It Works
Load is added to the elevator (passengers, freight, equipment etc)
The structural cross-member deflects, causing the sensor(s) to change resistance
This change in resistance is converted to an analog signal by the K-Weigh electronics
The electronics amplifies and conditions the signal and transmits it to the elevator controller
The controller changes the operation of the elevator depending on the weight (For example, bypass hall calls at 60% of maximum rated load)
