Air-Weigh is offering a low-cost on-board scale system called Quickoad. The new scale leverages Air-Weigh’s electronics, sensor and software technology and is designed in an environmentally sealed package to ensure long life in harsh climates and applications.
Quickload can be mounted in various positions on the trailer exterior. Typical installation time is approximately 20 minutes.
New features include an icon-based touch screen; multiple display, alarm and program settings; and built-in warning weight and overweight alarm LEDs that shine forward, rearward and outward. Additional features include a built-in battery for untethered operation and an industry standard data interface that can be set to J1939 or RS485 protocols.
The new scale will retail for $485. According to Air-Weigh, the system can pay for itself in about 20 uses.
