General Information (Calibration)
Payload Calibration Introduction
Your Cat® Dealer will calibrate your Cat Production Measurement application.
Calibration provides necessary information for the application. Calibration allows this application to determine the weight of the material that is lifted by the wheel loader. During calibration, the application measures the following:
- Lift cylinder pressure
- Lift position
- Linkage speed
- Tilt position
- Hydraulic oil temperature
There are two tools that can be used to perform a calibration:
- The Display Module
- Cat® Electronic Technician (Cat ET) Service Tool
Calibration using both tools is covered in the following text.
The types of calibrations are:
- Simple Calibration Update
- System Calibration Using Display Module
- System Calibration Using Cat ET Service Tool
All types are covered in this manual.
