- Various standard sizes:
- 10x3m | 10 x 3.3 m | 18 x 3 m | 18 x 3.3 m | 20x3m | 20x3.3m
- Custom sizes are available upon request.
- Load limits:
- Weighing range up to 60 tons (depending on the model, load capacity up to 40, 50 or 60 tons).
- 10-meter models: up to 40 t | 18- and 20-meter models: 50 or 60 t.
Precise and protected load cells for exact measurement results:
- High-precision load cells (e.g. Max 25 t, accuracy class C4) guarantee precise weight measurements.
- Protection class IP68 / IP69K – ideal for use in demanding, humid or dusty environments.
- Optional features:
- Rodent protection cable
- Internal lightning protection against overvoltage
- Terminal box (connection box):
- Die-cast aluminum housing, IP68 protection rating for best possible protection against moisture.
- 4 load cells for 10-meter models, 8 load cells for 18- and 20-meter models for consistent and precise load transfer.
Maximum comfort during cleaning & maintenance:
- Multiple access shafts facilitate maintenance and inspections.
- Optional lowered side walls (5 cm) – for extra-wide vehicles.
- Waterproof design – suitable for use in damp and wet environments, also possible according to WHG (Water Resources Act).
State-of-the-art weighing electronics & certification:
- Supplied as standard with 83sigma evaluation device , alternative evaluation devices are available on request.
- Initial calibration (conformity assessment) is possible ex works.
Expandable functionality through accessories:
Our BF (flat) vehicle scale can be expanded with a variety of accessories to optimally meet individual requirements:
- Remote display for easy weight control from a distance.
- Printers & weighing certificates for reliable documentation.
- Vehicle scale software WWS-F for recording, analyzing and managing weighing data.
- Radio system & external control unit for convenient and efficient operation.
- Surveillance camera to check whether vehicles are fully positioned on the weighbridge. (Photos are saved in the WWS-F software.)
- Recognition systems for operating the scale via RFID (key fob, check card)
- Traffic light system to signal when a weighing is completed
- Rubber profiles (T-profile) to protect against dirt under the bridge
The advantages of the BF (flat) vehicle scale at a glance:
✔ Minimal excavation – enables quick and cost-effective installation. ✔ Flexible, modular system – fully relocatable, ideal for temporary or permanent locations. ✔ Internal cable ducts – high level of safety, reduced wear, and minimized susceptibility to failure. ✔ Non-slip studded structure – for maximum safety when driving over, even in adverse weather conditions. ✔ Waterproof construction (also possible according to the Water Resources Act) – ideally suited for use in damp and demanding environments. ✔ Short construction and assembly times – enables rapid commissioning. ✔ Maximum precision and measurement accuracy thanks to a robust and sophisticated design. ✔ Versatile applications – from industry and recycling to chemical parks, refineries, agricultural operations, and biogas plants.
Possible applications in agriculture and biogas plants:
In addition to industrial applications, the BF (flat) vehicle scale is ideal for agricultural applications and biogas plants. It can be used for precise weighing of, among other things:
- Crops such as corn, grain or sugar beet
- fertilizers and feed
- Livestock transport
- Biomass and fermentation substrates
The high measurement accuracy helps farmers and plant operators optimize the efficiency of their processes and accurately bill suppliers or customers.
