A water and sewerage utility provider servicing South-East Queensland’s Moreton Bay and Sunshine Coast regions recently engaged AccuOnboard to supply and fit its TruckWeigh overload vehicle weighing system to one of its delivery vehicles used to transport concrete sewerage pipes.

With the considerable weight of each concrete pipe, operations managers determined it was quite possible for the vehicle to have overloaded axles without the driver’s knowledge. That’s where the TruckWeigh display, mounted in the vehicle’s cab really ‘pulls its weight’ by alerting the driver to overloaded axles or an excessive gross vehicle total mass.

AccuOnboard’s TruckWeigh vehicle weighing system has been protecting many Australian companies from overloading fines and unsafe loads for many years and is a small price to pay for that convenience. And when augmented by AccuOnboard’s many peripheral options, TruckWeigh can be changed from a stand-alone system to a fully networked and integrated data collection system.
