How to Buy and Maintain the Weighbridge?

For professional buyers, choosing the right truck weighbridge should consider more than just the purchase price of the product. Many people want to know the purchase strategy and maintenance method of the weighbridge.

 

 

The Cost of the Weighbridge

When choosing a floor scale, such as weighbridge truck scale, way bridge weighing scale, railway in motion weighbridge, etc., the price is important, but the accuracy and reliability of the truck scale will directly affect the service life of the product. Choosing a reliable floor scale can reduce maintenance costs and help you avoid unnecessary losses. At the same time, when choosing a weighbridge, we must not only consider the purchase price of the equipment, but also the fixed cost of the equipment, the cost of repairs and maintenance.

 

In addition, the customer must also consider the value of the shipped goods transaction. Check the value of the goods received. Their verification is part of good business practice. This is the best way to identify any loss, error, or fraud. You should also consider the possibility of shipping as much as possible without exceeding the maximum allowable weight of the vehicle.

 

 

Floor Scale Maintenance

The weighbridge may be subject to component failure or require recalibration or verification. Certain components are more likely to cause this situation than others. Even for newly purchased weighbridge, they still face many challenges. Some components require more interventions from other components. For many customers, the downtime of the truck weighbridge scale may bring huge losses to the enterprise, so it is necessary to consider investing more in reliable equipment to ensure the safety of its entire life cycle.

 

Usually, the main reasons that cause the scale to be fixed are environmental impacts such as water and lightning. Choosing our company's load cells, such as strain gauge load cell, interface load cell, hydraulic load cell, etc. can effectively avoid this problem. Our load cell can be immersed in water for a long time without damage. The cable gland wiring prevents water from entering the load cell body. The analog load cell also has a high level of water tightness, which also protects it from this risk.

 

You should also consider the need to protect your equipment from rodents. The cables we provide have metal rodent protection. At the same time, please confirm the operating temperature range of each component when purchasing. Another major cause of damage is thunderstorms. Our truck scales have a ground connection, which can immediately protect them from these phenomena. In addition, our junction box is equipped with a gas discharge device to further protect your equipment, thereby saving unnecessary maintenance costs.

 

 

During the life of the floor scale, you should also plan for the fixation of preventive maintenance. This is essential to the normal operation of the equipment.
