The VanWeigh axle overload protection system is specifically designed for two axled vehicles with standard coil or leaf spring suspension. Each axle is monitored with a patented, solidstate sensor which monitors the load applied to each axle. The information is displayed to the driver on the dual channel digital indicator and an audible alarm sounds if the total vehicle or axle weight maximum is reached.
Please note that there is an installation and calibration charge of £280.00 for this product.
The driver has a choice of three screens:
Screen 1: Dial screen view
Screen 2: A graphical van display with the actual weight in lbs and the percent of payload vs. load capacity
Screen 3: An actual weight over each axle plus the GVW in lbs and the percent of payload vs. load capacity.
The driver will be alerted to three conditions:
Safe: Indicates loads up to 90% eitherfront or rear axle and total load
Warning: Indicates loads between 90% and 100%
Overload: Alerts the driver to an axle or vehicle infringement above 100% load
VanWeigh has no moving parts and is not susceptible to wear or slipping out of calibration because of stretched springs, which are common in other axle protection systems
