RAVAS introduces: second generation accurate hydraulic scale for forklift trucks
Key points
Introducing the RCS PLUS, RAVAS sets the new standard for oil pressure weighing on forklift trucks in the market. The RCS PLUS is an accurate hydraulic scale, very user friendly and as an option, can be fitted with modern technology for Bluetooth and WiFi communication.
The successor of the RCS PLUS system, launched in 2007, has a new indicator based on the iForks indicator, bringing a number of new functions and making the system more user friendly.
Accurate weighing on forklifts with the RCS PLUS
The RCS PLUS weighs by measuring the pressure in the hydraulic circuit of the forklift truck. This pressure is measured with a temperature compensated sensor in the valve block. During a controlled descent of the load on the forks, the RCS PLUS measures the oil pressure in the mast at a high frequency.
The indicator software turns these measurements into an accurate weight indication of the load of the forks. The maximum tolerance is 0.2% of the weighing capacity. The RCS PLUS has a standard capacity up to 10 Ton and is optionally available up for weighing up to 30 Ton.
The RCS PLUS is an excellent tool for weight checks on a fork lift truck, for example at goods reception, determining shipping weights, preventing overloads, stock-taking, stock control etc.
Used with attachments, like a clamp or rotator, the RCS PLUS offers a cost effective solution for weighing on your fork lift truck. The RCS PLUS is easy to install, very user friendly and virtually maintenance free.
