WEIGHING IT UP • Central Weighing has launched its low-profile electronic vehicle weighpads for fleet operators and haulage contractors who cannot use a permanent weighbridge.
Called Cheklode, the equipment is battery-operated and only requires infrequent charging on any 12V, 110V or 240V power. The aluminium scales are capable of measuring weights up to 20 tonnes per axle with a claimed accuracy of +/-1% and can be linked up to provide gross axle weights. The price of the Cheklode starts at £1,795.
For details contact: Central Weighing, Unit 25, Hartlebury Trading Estate, Kidderminster, Worcestershire DY10 4JB, or phone (0299) 251242.
