Electronic Low-Profile Steel Deck Standard Features

  • The TS Series is designed with 10″ tall wide flange I-beams running longitudinally. The spacing of the I-beams is directly under the truck tire path to increase longevity, strength, and durability.
  • The TS Series uses heavy-duty diamond checkered steel safety floor plate.
  • Top access cover plates to all load cells, J-boxes, bolts, and side bump brackets make for easy installation/maintenance.
  • The low-profile design is 14″ overall height with 3-1/2″ washout clearance.
  • The scale is a modular design which allows for easy future expansion and relocation.
  • Load cell stands and side bump brackets are anchored to the concrete foundation with expansion bolts after modules are aligned and bolted together allowing for perfect placement of scale.
  • The design is for a pitless installation but can be installed in a shallow pit or flush with the surrounding surface.
  • The TS Series uses end bumper bolts thus eliminating the damaging shock found in designs that require check rods. This speeds installation and allows for easier scale adjustment.
  • Double parallel weldless end links and self compensating swing link suspension with adjustable stand allow the deck to be self-centering, increasing accuracy and repeatability, and compensates for expansion/contraction of the scale deck due to temperature extremes.
  • To protect against moisture and rodents, all wiring is protected by 1″ plastic conduit, 3/4″ sealtite, and fiberglass J-boxes. Wiring between load cell and J-box is ran in factory installed conduit.
  • The summing boards have individual adjustment pots for each section and position on all scales. Gaseous diodes are standard on all boards to provide electrical overload protection. A ground rod kit is provided.
  • Highly accurate 60,000 lb. class IIIL double-ended shear beam load cells with 150% overload rating.
  • All surfaces are sandblasted to white metal, sprayed with a rust inhibitive primer, then an acrylic enamel finish coat.
