Overloads Warning & Visual Alarm Systems

 

                                                                                                      

The ED2-SM Series SkidWeigh System is an electronic device that can be installed on any forklift truck in order to convert it into a mobile check weighing scale with overload warning.


Every time a skid is picked up, the hydraulic pressure on the forklift is automatically activated and converted to a weight measurement and presented to the operator visually via a LED digital indicator.

Load and Vehicle Stability
One of the most important elements to know about a forklift is the rated load capacity.  It is defined as the maximum weight of material that can be handled on the forks at a specific load center. When the weight of the load is not clearly marked, the standard practice is to lift the load off the ground and get a "feel" if the vehicle is stable.  This becomes a problem when unknown skid weights are picked up from the storage racks at various forks heights and mast angles.

                                              

Solution                                                                                                                                                                                         The SM-Series SkidWeigh with it’s bright LED load weight readout will "flash" when overload is present. Optional buzzer will be activated as well when vehicle overloaded.

                                              

Installation

The SM-Series SkidWeigh can be installed and calibrated by a local forklift dealer or the end user’s forklift mechanic.
