1982 Intercomp’s AX900 axle scale systems are now available with fully integrated RFX wireless weighing technology, providing cable-free operation that improves safety and efficiency.

This is made possible by embedded radios enabling wireless communication to a variety of devices, while digital output still allows for cable backup. Calibration is stored at the scale providing users with the ability to interchange all components. Users can also interface their own indicator to the scales using analogue output versions. Hardwired versions are available for users whose local regulations prevent the use of any wireless radio communication.

Available in a variety of lengths, capacities and configurations to weigh anything form single to multi-axle vehicles,  AX900 scales feature a 3.6” low-profile overall height for easy loading. The scales utilise stainless steel, hermetically sealed shear beam load cells that are certified to 5,000 divisions by the US National Institute of Standards and Technologies to ensure unparalleled accuracy, easy maintenance and increased longevity.
