AVAILABLE OPTIONS:

Audio Overload Warning Option:

When the overload feature is used, a warning light, sound alarm and a flashing display will activate when the weight exceeds the overload setting. The user can set the overload warning to go off at their pre-determined overload weight. NOTE: A visual (not audio) overload alarm is now standard with all units.

Load Monitor Option:

The "Load Monitor" unit gives the operator a secondary display showing load information for easier loading to target values. The monitor can be used on forklifts and bucket loaders. The system can be setup to view the weight on the forks or bucket as it goes up, or view it going from the target weight setting down toward zero. The accumulated total can be viewed also. This total can be displayed going up or from a target setting going down from the target allowing the operator to see how much more to load to reach the target load total. There are two LED alarm lights to indicate when the target weight values are reached. One is for a current weight on the forks or bucket, and the other is for the accumulated load total. There is also an audible alarm that can sound when either or both alarm settings are reached. The "Current" alarm and "Load" alarm weight values are set with the front panel buttons. Integrate this scale with our load monitor display. For more information about the load monitor, please click on the "Extended Information" tab above.

Printer Options:
  • Thermal roll paper printer mounted to the forklift. Prints load weight or total weight.
  • Label printer prints on 2" x 4" labels (larger labels available). Prints load weight or total weight.
  • Add time & date to print with any printer choice.
  • Add a wireless printer package for communication to a desk top printer as shown in pictures. This option is specially configured to work only with the TR-1-NK-HE. This package comes with ConnexLink wireless long-range modem and printer.

The standard features provide for easy setup and calibration and simple interface to optional printers or computers.

This system is easy to use and cost efficient compared to systems priced at $3500 and up.
