DEFLECTION TRANSDUCER – STANDARD AND NEUTRAL AXIS
DESCRIPTION
The Vulcan Deflection Transducers can be installed on several types of truck and trailer suspension components including: steel walking beams, front axles, and thru-trunnions including Mack camel back suspensions. The transducers mount directly on suspension components, measure the component deflection, and convert the deflection into a corresponding weight. Deflection transducers can also be placed on load carrying members to provide solutions for other on-board weighing and custom applications.
FEATURES
- Easy to install - mounts on vehicle suspension components or load carrying members
- Easy to operate using proven Vulcan electronics
- Eliminate overweight fines
- Monitor loading or unloading of weights at remote locations
- Save time loading, weighing and adjusting the load
- Reduce time and mileage by minimizing trips to commercial scale
- Reduce maintenance costs by not overloading the vehicle
- Prevent hauling freight in excess of contracted weight
SPECIFICATIONS
Accuracy: Since these are secondary sensors, system accuracy is determined by existing truck structure and environmental conditions.
