Cost Effective and Highly AccurateWeighbridge Extension

A Weighbridge Extension is a practical and a more cost effective solution in lieu of buying a new Weighbridge. The weighing of trucks can then can be as fast, accurate and reliable as using a new Weighbridge and an Extension also ensures that you meet stringent NMI regulations for weighing trucks.

Customisable Options

• Choose from a reinforced concrete

deck or a orthotropic steel deck to best

match the requirements of your existing

weighbridge

• The efficient design and rugged

construction of a concrete deck ensures

longer life for your weighbridge

• All our steel deck designs are

supported by orthotropic ribs with

fully automated, continuous welds and

provides exceptional strength and

reliability

Compliance

• A weighbridge extension enables the

weighing of trucks to be more accurate

and meet legal NMI standards and

allows trucks to be weighed in one stage

• NMI regulations have become stricter,

making it more critical to have a

weighbridge that can weigh trucks in

one pass for trade purposes

• NMI regulations prohibit weighing

of trucks on short bridges and such

weighing is also extremely inaccurate

Complete Protection

• The robust, stainless steel

construction of POWERCELL load cells

protect against extreme temperatures,

water, floods, corrosion and rust

• POWERCELL load cells are equipped

with StrikeShield™ lightning protection

system that allows the scale to continue

functioning even after a lightning hit

• Heavy-duty, corrosion-resistant

stainless steel design resists damage in

harsh and abusive environments

POWERCELL® PDX® load cells

• The exceptional reliability and

advanced diagnostics of POWERCELL

PDX load cells eliminate unplanned

service costs by keeping you informed

• Predictive diagnostics features

constantly monitor system health and

alerts you to any inconsistencies and

scale issues to help increase uptime

• Revolutionary design eliminates all

junction boxes, which are wired by

hand in the fiels and are a common

cause of vehicle scale failures

A new B Double weighbridge can cost approximately $120,000 inclusive of civils and installation costs

A Breakdown of Cost Savings with a Weighbridge Extension

A 10 metre extension to a 18 or 20 metre weighbridge that can weigh B Doubles will cost a minimum of $60,000 inclusive of civils, installation and the deck

Conclusion: You can save at least $60,000 with an Extension rather than purchasing a new Weighbridge

A Weighbridge Without an Extension

Non Compliant to NMI regulations that requires the axles to be sitting wholly on a weighbridge platform

Inaccurate end and end (split) weighing as the truck is not contained properly on the weighbridge and the approaches are not level
