Matrix Series Configurable Truck Weighing System

Product catalog summary

Overview
The Configurable Truck Weighing System by Fairbanks Scales offers a cost-effective solution for obtaining legal-for-trade vehicle weights. It is designed for various applications including warehouse facilities, equipment weighing, moving and shipping, and service companies. The system is customizable and innovative, allowing users to build a Matrix scale in six easy steps.

Configuration Process
The Matrix system can be customized by selecting axle weighing platforms based on application and truck sizes, adding approach and exit ramps, and choosing accessories such as scale instruments or remote terminal units. The system uses steel platforms under each set of truck axles and concrete modules (dead spans) between platforms, reducing costs by eliminating the need for a traditional foundation.

Special Features
The Matrix system features a low 6-inch profile for easy maneuvering, optional sectional controllers for lightning and surge protection, and encapsulated circuit boards for moisture resistance. It captures both gross weight and individual axle weights, and can be installed on a level, unyielding surface without the need for permits or foundation construction.

Specifications

Weighing Platforms: Standard width of 10 feet, lengths of 7, 10, 14, 17, and 20 feet, capacities from 60 to 135 tons, and constructed from structural steel.
Dead Span Modules: Made from composite concrete with structural steel frames and Nelson studs, requiring field pour concrete.
Load Cell Data: Capacity of 50,000 lbs, 3.5-inch rocker column type, 1,000 ohms resistance, 2.0 mV/V output, stainless steel material, and complete hermetic seal.

Advantages
The Matrix system requires less real estate and can be relocated easily. It offers a low profile for easy vehicle access and provides robust protection against electrical disturbances. The system is suitable for weighing almost any vehicle and does not require a new foundation for relocation.
