VTS202/302 PDX STANDARD AND EXTREME DUTY STEEL WEIGHBRIDGES

Orthotropic design for long life – Fix it as surface or pit mounted
The cost of a weighbridge is a critical issue for today’s customer. The VTS202 is designed to optimize the state of the art orthotropic design to fulfill two important goals; to accurately weigh on-the-road trucks under medium to heavy traffic conditions and to reduce your long-term service and maintenance costs. The VTS302 is designed where typical on-the-road trucks may be frequently overloaded.

Weighbridges are with state of the art PDX power load Cells
Moving bulk goods or raw materials into or out of a processing facility effectively is critical to plant productivity. As a result, unplanned truck scale downtime can seriously impact the total product output of a processing plant and threaten profit margins. The crucial reason a truck scale must perform is simple: Ever y minute a scale weighs inaccurately – or not at all – costs money. Without correct amounts of incoming materials, critical processes are put on hold. Additionally, in-plant productivity y gains can be nullified if goods are waiting to be shipped out. Because conventional scale systems cannot alert operators to the above issues or compensate for their influence, they can continue to produce undetected weighing errors. In fact, the errors can of ten exceed the limits established for certified legal-for-trade applications. The more vehicles that are weighed, the more the losses add up. Innovative technology using PDX load cells can provide the first-line defense against costly weighing errors.

Heavy-duty y, corrosion-resistant stainless steel helps resist damage in abusive or corrosive environments. Critical weighing electronics are now being protected like never before within hermetically sealed, IP68/IP69K water tight systems. A fully welded enclosure and water tight connectors can ensure that flooding will not impact a company’s maintenance budget.

    • UNATTENDED VEHICLE WEIGHING

    Benefits of an Unattended Weighing System

  • Avoid Need for weighing attendant- personnel cost reduction
  • Avoid need for building near the scale- reduce construction and operating costs
  • Improve data accuracy- use preprogrammed information on proximity cards
  • Improve facility security- Intergrated facility access gates into weighing system
  • Faster weighing throughput- transaction is completed without driver leaving the cab
  • 24 Hour per day Operation- greater facility operational flexibility

    • VRS241 RAILROAD SCALE

    The decisions that are made now regarding your rail scale installation will continue to influence the efficiency and effectiveness of your operations for many years to come. As with many projects there are many elements that need to be considered.
