Wheel Weigh Pads

The Lightweight Wheel Pads provide a rugged portable weighing system which can be used in many vehicle applications.

Simple to Operate

In operation the system is simple. To use the Lightweight Wheel Pads all the operator has to do is to switch the weigher on. If there is a weight showing on the display while nothing is on the pads then they can be zeroed by pressing the zero key on the indicator. The pads have been factory calibrated for maximum accuracy, and have been designed to maintain a high level of accuracy while being used on both level and uneven ground. No special setting up is needed, just drop them on the floor and plug them in.

Weigh Sensors

The Ton-Tel wheel pads have weight sensors built into them which are both waterproof and very robust. Each Wheel Pad can take a weight of up to 5,000 kilograms giving an overall maximum capacity of 10,000 kilograms on a pair. The Lightweight wheel pads are manufactured from high strength light weight aluminium and the overall weight of each pad is no more than 9 kg, easily lifted by one man.

Automatic weighing

Weighing a vehicle is a very fast operation. As a weight is detected on the pads the electronics waits for it to become steady and then catches the weight into memory. A light is available for use when weighing statically which comes on then goes off when the weight has been captured so that the driver knows when to move to the next set of wheels. Each set of wheels is weighed and automatically gets put into memory without the operator doing anything. When the platform does not feel another weight coming onto it within 15 seconds it automatically adds the weights together and prints out the ticket showing ticket number, date, time, weight of each part and total weight of the vehicle. The indicator and printer are built into a tough waterproof suitcase housing for ease of carrying between locations. When the lid is closed the printer is completely waterproof which makes it very suitable for carrying in the vehicle with the weighpads. For logging on a computer a laptop is available with full software. The reports can then be transferred from each laptop to a single main computer for analysis of the data from all the weighings. The whole system operates from 12 volts dc and so can be run from a car battery. Hence no mains power is needed which gives maximum flexibility for using the wheel pads in remote locations. Wiring to the sensors is all plug-in with quick release plugs which are easily accessible.

The Ton-Tel Wheel Pads are made from high grade high strength aluminium. Waterproof Sealed to IP67 with push-pull connectors.
