On-Board Trailer Weighing Indicator

Product Code: 01/TrailWeigh

Trail Weigh – Tanker & Trailer Weight Monitor Trail Weigh is an on-board weighing indicator ideally suited to bulk liquid, grain, powder tankers or forestry transport trailers operating (EBS) Electronic Braking Systems. Trail Weigh accurately measures the trailers load while loading is taking place with a preset alarm overload. It achieves this by making sure the tractor Park brake is applied, releasing the service brake on the trailer allowing air bags to settle out, before rechecking weight. Overloading a vehicle could result in Health & Safety legislation, Duty of Care, and even (in extreme cases) Corporate Manslaughter. When viewing the Trail Weighs display (mounted on the side of a trailer), the loading and total weight will be displayed, optional weight alarm settings are easily programmed. Trail Weigh continually monitors the EBS CAN messages, therefore can identify if the trailer is moving, this information prevents false alarms, ideal for tankers as moving liquid prevents other On Board Trailer Monitors offering correct weight measurements. Trail Weigh users the existing CAN trailer technology to determine the trailers payload, monitoring the weight with periodic pauses allows the load to stabilise offering the Trail Weigh to report an accurate weight. As Trail Weigh utilizes the trailers technology, the out lay cost for a system is relatively low compared to other On Trailer Board Weighing Systems. Trail Weigh is suitable for trailers types, including: Liquid Tankers Power Tankers Forestry / Timber Transport
