LCI Drum Counter Display

Measurement Technology NW's LCI Drum Counter monitors are used to display line payout and speed for applications where payout sensors are mounted on the winch drum.

Both the LCI-100and the LCI-90 are available in Drum Counter configurations.

As in every LCI unit, heavy-duty 316 stainless steel front panels and five sealed tactile pushbuttons perform flawlessly in extreme environments. The bright electroluminescent display panel is protected by an epoxy-sealed polycarbonate window, where payout and speed data are displayed as both a digital number and a horizontal bar graph.

Once cable size and drum geometries are entered into memory, the new LCI Drum Counter will automatically adjust for variations in drum diameter during spooling or unspooling operations, and will accurately measure winch payout and speed even as drum layers change. Other calibration and configuration menus are easily accessed by using the front panel pushbuttons.

We offer a full line of tensiometers. The perfect compliment for any of our line monitoring displays or software products.
