PORTABLE AXLE LOAD SCALE WIDE RANGE OF APPLICATIONS The PALS is right for truck scale applications with anticipated daily weighments of 50 trucks or less.

1 PORTABLE AXLE LOAD SCALE WIDE RANGE OF APPLICATIONS The PALS is right for truck scale applications with anticipated daily weighments of 50 trucks or less. Here are a few examples of industries and applications that could benefit from the savings, convenience and flexibility of a PALS system: FM APPROVED LOAD CELLS Fairbanks Portable Axle Load Scale (PALS) is the ideal choice for a cost-effective weighing solution when application requirements don t exceed accurate, non-commercial vehicle axle weights. ELIMINATING THE FOUNDATION Fairbanks PALS is constructed in a sub-frame that totally eliminates the need for a pier or slab foundation. A flat, unyielding surface, such as asphalt or concrete, is all that s required to install the complete unit. By eliminating the foundation, both installation and relocation of this scale are a snap, requiring minimal time, effort and money. If a change in process, traffic flow or location occurs, the Fairbanks Portable Axle Load Scale offers the ultimate in weighing flexibility. STRUCTURAL STEEL CONSTRUCTION The Portable Axle Load Scale is fabricated out of USA extruded structural steel members. Scale ramps are constructed to the same standards as the weighbridge to ensure the quality that Fairbanks customers demand. Ramps come standard in a full-width design that accommodates any wheel base for most highway vehicles. LOAD CELLS The PALS is equipped with four 50,000 lb capacity stainless steel load cells designed to handle extra-heavy loads. These cells are properly aligned through factory installation, eliminating potential weighing errors. Moving and shipping Equipment weighing Manufacturing operations PALS FEATURES Ultra-low 6 profile Foundation unnecessary for most installations Can be sized to weigh most axle groups Can be installed at grade level Single day installation, easy to move/relocate Filling operations Service companies Light manufacturing Deck dimensions Lengths: 7, 10, 14, 17 and configurable with dead span modules to achieve desired weighing system length Width: 10 Capacities tons to 60-tons CLC k and 80 k Design Orthotropic, open bottom Construction Structural steel Approvals NTEP CC# Load cell data: Capacity ,000 lbs Type Rocker column Material Stainless steel, 17-4 PH Protection Complete hermetic sealing, IP69K Resistance ,000 ohms Output mv/v Approvals NTEP CC# , Factory Mutual Accessories Ramps, remote displays, instruments, traffic signals, driver assist terminals QuickFacts Models and specifications subject to change without notice.
