At the heart of our COS is a dual-input configuration featuring 2 x COS loadcell input meters, seamlessly integrated with our powerful COS2 wireless summing display. This intelligent, wireless solution offers real-time monitoring, accurate load summation, and reliable SWL (Safe Working Load) protection — essential for modern crane operations.

Whether you’re operating overhead cranes, gantry systems, or other lifting machinery, our COS is the safety backbone your operation needs.

Precision Load Monitoring

Leveraging decades of expertise in industrial weighing technology, our COS system delivers accurate live weight data—allowing operators to work with complete confidence.

Wireless Integration

The COS2 wireless summing display provides clean and clutter-free communication between loadcells and the central display, simplifying installation and reducing downtime.

SWL Protection & Alerts

Built-in relay and alarm outputs ensure that cranes are protected from overload conditions by activating warning systems or halting operation when loads approach or exceed safe thresholds.
