DTZZIII-SK14 type
Elevator Weight-Load Indicating Controller

Purpose

The Prospect Photoelectric DTZZIII-SK14type elevator weight-load indicating controller (next we

call it controller simply in the whole article) is the necessary device for all kinds of straight rising
elevator running safety, such as passenger elevator, cargo elevator, and hydraulic pressure
elevator, hospital elevator etc. DTZZIII-SK14type controller can output multi-teams of light-load,

full-load and overload relay contact signal, and 0～10mA analog signal. Meanwhile the controller

can warn by sound & light when overload also.

Characteristics

1.Display
The controller adopts three-digit alphanumeric pipe for displaying the percentage between the
actual load and rated load value, floor number and elevator rated load tonnage, which is
convenient for users operation.

2.Input
The controller input sides for signals all adopt the technology of light & electric insulated, that is
suitable for inputting all kinds of signals, like door-opening signal, direction signal and leveling
signal.

3.Output

The controller can output signal by the form of relay contact signal, 0～10mA analog signal to

control elevator running.

4.Operation
The controller can set elevator rated load tonnage for free or read the actual load weight in car
directly as the rated load tonnage. The sensor is installed in rope hitch plate.

5.Conquer inertial warn when elevator is running

Controller examines the elevator load weight and outputs signal for controlling when car door is

DTZZIII—SK14 user manual V2.0
open. Controller doesn’t examines elevator or outputs signals when elevator uprising or descend.

Operation Principle

The controller connects with pressure sensor. The pressure sensor transforms the load weight into
electric signals, which through controller sum amplifier, A/D switch and SCM (Single Chip
Micyoco) operation transmit into controller. Then the corresponding relays will run and connect
with elevator control system when the weight in car reach or exceed the preset value. It will make
elevator run safety and reliably. At the same time, controller connects with transducer and
outputs voltage or current signal.

Debugging

1. The first checking

Turn the switch to the running position (underneath) and power on. The controller sends out a
long sound. And three—digit alphanumeric pipe displays 888, then the first alphanumeric pipe

displays 1 and the other two put out. Three—digit alphanumeric pipes all display when there is

door-opening signal to controller. It displays the load of the car of elevator and increase with
the load weight in the car increase.
2. Reset operation (disposal self-weight of elevator)
① Turn the switch to running position (underneath).

② Power on, forbidden operation till after ten minutes.

③ Let the car of elevator to bottom floor with empty load, then open the door (make the door

receive door-opening signal), press the reset button three times in three seconds, you will hear
three times sounds, then three times long sounds continuously. Just then the three-digit

6
DTZZIII—SK14 user manual V2.0
alphanumeric display 000.The reset operation is over.
3. Auto-tune operation first
① After reset operation, Under opening door (controller received the door-opening signal), let

99% rated load to car, then press the reset button for over 5 seconds, after hearing a long sound
from controller, loosen the button immediately, three-digit will display 099-100.

② Turn the switch to auto-tune position (above), after hearing three long sounds and a short

sound, then let the car move up from bottom floor to next floor, open and close door, till the car
reach top floor. (The controller makes two sounds auto-tune response every floor stopping.)

③ When the car reaches the top floor, press five times reset button in five seconds. You will hear

five times sound, then five times long sound continuously. Then let the car move down from top
floor to next floor, open and close door, till the car reaches bottom floor. (The controller makes
two sounds auto-tune response every floor stopping.)

④ Turn the switch to the running position (underneath) when the car reaches the bottom floor

and the car door is open. The controller displays 100.

⑤ Then controller power on again, and the debug is successful.

Setup light-load point

Press the reset button all the time as device working normally. After hearing a sound, turn up the
switch immediately, after hearing a long sound you can adjust light-load point by press the reset
button. Displaying number circle between 002 and 050, turn down the switch to exit setting
light-load state.

Auto-tune without adding weight

There are influences from wire rope displacement or the friction of the guide rail with guide shoe
in the long time, which result the precision of the overload with compensating output value not
exact. You can do the auto-tune for floor modify as followed:

① Reset operation at first (press the reset button three times continuously in three seconds, you

will hear three sounds then three long sounds, the three-digit will display 000.

② Turn the switch to auto-tune position, after hearing three times long sounds and a sound, you
can close the car door, and let the car move up from bottom floor to next floor, open and close
door, till the car reach the top floor.

③ After reaching the top floor, press the reset button five times in five seconds continuously, you
will hear five sounds and then five times long sounds. Let the car move down from top floor to
next floor, open and close door till the car reaches to the bottom floor bottom.

④ After reaching bottom floor, opening the car door, turn the switch to the setup position, the

7
DTZZIII—SK14 user manual V2.0
device work normally and display 000.Adjustment is over.

Rated load modify without adding weight

If you haven’t the duty load weight in the workplace, you can modify the load weight that needed
to control by the device. The method is followed.
For example, the elevator duty load is 1000kg, after adding 200kg weight, the device should
display 20%, but actual is 23%. Then you can modify by changing the device preset load weight at
this time. The method is followed.
1.Let the elevator stop at the bottom floor. Give door-opening signal, and then reset operation
under empty car.
2.Put into car with 200kg weight.
3.Power off and power on.
4.Turn the switch to auto-tune position (above). After hearing two long sounds, press the reset
button a time immediately. Then the device will display three-digit number of original preset
load weight.
5.Because the actual display is bigger than theory value, so you can press the preset button to

change the setting value (from 020 to 255 circle) and adjust to 115 about (23×100÷20=115).

The needed value =the actual display value ×original value ÷ theoretic display value

6.Turn the switch to running position, device can run to control elementary.

Running

The controller light-load, full-load and overload contact will run when each floor load weight
reach to the preset rated load. And analog output will change along with the payload change in
elevator car.

Torque compensation

The current output or voltage output function is to provide the feedback signal, which is about the
load weight in car for elevator control system and decrease or increase with the elevator load

weight decrease or increase (output 0～10mA or 0～10V or –10V～10V signal when elevator run

from the lightest floor under empty load to the heaviest floor under rated load). You can also

connect resistor in series to output 0～10V voltage signal as you need. But sampling points must

near the feedback input terminal that in controller cabinet. Connect the sampling points by
two-core shield cable (Fig 6). The purpose of adopting the current signal is in order to conquer the
voltage signal loss in the transmission process. Current signal also can enhance the anti-jamming

power.
Note: Controller detects the load weight of elevator when elevator door is opening, then output
contact signal and current signal. The current signal doesn’t change after door closing.

Faults Disposal

There are not three long sounds after reset operation.

(A) Pull out all the special cable plugs of controller. Then do the reset operation. If there are
three sounds, manifest the working is normal and the controller is right. Next you need to
check the special cable and sensor.
(B) Figure (7.a). Detect the sensor bridge circuit resistance by pins on 4-core cable plug-in unit.

The resistance of 1-4 and 2-3 is about 350Ω, and the resistance of 1-2, 1-3,4-2 and 4-3 is

about 262Ω. If the resistance of 1-4 and 2-3 is bigger a lot than 350Ω, check the cable

connection.
(C) Figure (7.b) 1-1,2-2,3-3 and 4-4 of the right and left plugs are transmittable. Means it is
transmittable of the same number, the other different number is not transmittable. (5 pin is
free)

※ If the numbers of cable plug pin are different to the practicality, please consult the following

figure as the criterion.
