The LP600™ Low Profile Wheel Load Scale is a distinguished member of the Intercomp family, engineered to meet the demands of high-accuracy, portable vehicle weighing. This scale offers an ideal solution for applications where quick setup, reliable performance, and minimal space requirements are crucial, such as in commercial fleets, construction sites, logistics hubs, and specialty vehicle weighing.
The robust design and low profile of the LP600™ allow for weighing with minimal vehicle jacking, enhancing safety and reducing setup time. The system is excellently suited for precisely determining axle loads, total vehicle weight, and the load exerted on individual wheels.
The LP600™ scale family combines user-friendly design with state-of-the-art weighing technology:
The LP600™ series is available in various configurations offering different maximum load capacities. The table below summarizes the main specifications characteristic of the product family:
| Characteristic | LP600™ (Base Model) | LP600-15T™ (Higher Capacity Variant) |
|---|---|---|
| Típus | Low Profile Wheel Load Scale | Low Profile Wheel Load Scale |
| Maximum Wheel Weighing Capacity | 60,000 lbs (approx. 27,215 kg) | 15 Tons (approx. 33,000 lbs) |
| Maximum Axle Load | Varies by specific configuration | Varies by specific configuration |
| Profile Height | Extremely Low (exact figure depends on configuration) | Extremely Low (exact figure depends on configuration) |
| Measurement Accuracy | High (±0.5% typically or better) | High (±0.5% typically or better) |
| Display Compatibility | RFX® Wireless or Wired Indicators | RFX® Wireless or Wired Indicators |
| Material | High-strength aluminum or steel alloys | High-strength aluminum or steel alloys |
| Environmental Protection | Meets industry standards (Water and Dust Resistance) | Meets industry standards (Water and Dust Resistance) |
The LP600™ scale performs excellently across several critical industrial and commercial segments:
Accurate weighing is essential for effective load distribution and avoiding overloading. The LP600™ enables quick checks at loading docks or on-site, ensuring compliance with legal requirements.
Checking the load of heavy construction machinery, trucks, and transporters. Ideal for variable worksite environments due to quick setup.
Weighing special vehicles, such as high-capacity trailers or trucks with special superstructures, where the center of gravity and balance are critical.
Although primarily designed for industrial purposes, precise weight distribution measurement can be useful for setting up racing cars or specially modified vehicles (though dedicated Intercomp racing scales are also available).
The LP600™ operates with the help of load cells, which convert the load applied to them into an electrical signal. The system typically consists of four weigh pads, which together can measure the total vehicle weight or individually the load on the respective axles and wheels.
Wireless Communication (RFX®): The LP600™ often works in conjunction with Intercomp RFX® wireless displays. This technology allows the operator to read measurements from a safe distance, without having to remain near the vehicle. The wireless connection is stable and reliable, reducing the risk of accidents caused by cables.
Data Processing: The display unit not only shows the instantaneous weight but is also capable of summarizing axle loads, calculating the total vehicle weight, as well as storing and exporting measurements. With advanced software (such as ACWeigh™ or iACWeigh™ – although these are more related to aviation systems, the principle is similar for industrial software), it is possible to log measurement data and prepare reports.
The low-profile design of the LP600™ minimizes installation time. The weighing pads can simply be placed in the desired location, and the vehicle slowly driven onto them. The system automatically or upon button press calibrates itself to zero (tare weight) and then begins measurement.
For portability, LP600™ systems often include robust transport bags or storage systems that protect the weigh pads during transport.
In summary: The LP600™ Low-Profile Wheel Load Scale is a reliable, high-capacity, and precise measuring device, making it an ideal choice for any industrial operator requiring a fast, accurate, and flexible weighing solution.
