Abstract: A method for remote monitoring of operating characteristics of a load cell is provided. The method includes receiving from a plurality of sensors, at a main unit, sensed data indicative of a plurality of operating characteristics of a load cell. The method continues by analyzing at a main unit the sensed data for statistical control and sending alerts to a remote computing device when sensed data of an operating characteristic is outside of a preset threshold. A system for carrying out the method is also provided. The system includes a main unit installed near a load cell, a first sub-unit coupled to a scale of the load cell in wired communication with the main unit, and at least one remote computing device in network communication with the main unit.
