New To The UK - CargoWatch Weighing System

A Logis-Tech Associates product story
Edited by the Buildingtalk editorial team Apr 14, 2004

Logis-Tech Associates have introduced to the UK the CargoWatch-P2 weighing system - that gives you correct weighing of cargo - every time! All UK trucks should each have their own CargoWatch fitted.

Newly introduced to the UK by Logis-Tech Associates is the CargoWatch-P2 weighing system.

This product developed in close cooperation with some UK and European haulage contractors consists of a weighing system that gives you correct weighing of cargo - every time !!! It has 3 main features/advantages: a.

Quick and Visual "Full load Indication".

b.

Tare Mode Function.

c.

Easy Installation/Robust design.

The weighing system measures the axle-pressure, and also contains an easy, quick and visual "full load indication" direct on the CargoWatch-P2 unit.

In addition, 3 external lamps can also present a "full load indication".

The lamps can either be the trucks existing lamps or can be supplied as an accessory.

The maximum cargo-carrying capacity of the vehicle is typed into the CargoWatch-P2 unit and a simple, precise and immediate reading (lamp 1-3 turn on) of the max load limit is obtained.

This is extremely advantageous when loading from a silo, ship, etc, where continuous loading gives problems in reading a digital display.

The tare mode function (net cargo weight) is used for successively weighing a number of individual orders, e.g from a silo or delivery of different amounts of e.g grain to different farmers/silos.

One example of using the CargoWatch unit is that 6 tons of grain is required to be delivered to a farmer): The value of 6 tons is inserted into the CargoWatch-P2 unit.

A green lamp illuminates when the cargo weight reaches 5.4 tons, at 5.7 tons a yellow lamp is illuminated and then finally a red lamp turns on at 6 tons.

Subsequently the next tare values can be typed in.

Red lamp always turns on, when you reach the tare weight.

The user can define the levels of the green and yellow lamps.

The unit is housed in a weatherproof aluminium box, which is easily mounted on to the outside of the truck.

The CargoWatch product has been developed this past three years.

It has been developed in close cooperation with haulage contractors and is already used extensively throughout Europe.

The UK market now have the opportunity to use this product and save the heavy fines that are being given out for overloading cargos.

It also assists the environment and of course improves safety.

All UK trucks should each have their own CargoWatch fitted.
