The entire range is highly suitable for places with limited space like non-hilly areas where the construction of pit is not a costly affair. Apart from this, no ramp is required for truck movement because this Weighbridge is installed in land surface level. This Pit Type Weighbridge is robustly manufactured with the finest quality raw materials and modern technology.
Features:
- Robustness
- Perfect strength
- Heavy load bearing capacity
- Durable
PIT TYPE WEIGHBRIDGE
This type of weighbridge is most suitable for places with limited space e.g. non-hilly areas where the construction of pit is not a costly affair. Since the platform is in level with the ground, vehicles can approach the weighbridge from any direction. Most public weight bridges prefer this design.
Benefits
- Lesser Space Required (As it has no ramps)
- Rickshaws & Tractor Trolleys can also be weighed as platform is in flush with ground Level.
- No Ramp require for truck movement because it is installed in land surface level
-

Superior Accuracy & Robust ConstructionDesigned with precision, the weighbridge incorporates digital calibration and highly accurate load cells with 0.02% full-scale accuracy. Its checkered mild steel plate and robust construction guarantee longevity even under rigorous industrial conditions. Overload protection up to 150% of rated capacity and anti-corrosive surface treatments enhance reliability and safety.
User-Friendly Digital Interface & ConnectivityOperators benefit from clear LED/LCD digital monitor displays and straightforward PC/printer connectivity via RS232 or RS485 interfaces. Flush mounting simplifies installation at ground level, while the systems automatic operation and compatibility with most data software enable efficient weight recording and reporting in real-time.
FAQs of Pit Type Weighbridge:
Q: How is the pit type weighbridge installed and where can it be used?
A: The pit type weighbridge is installed flush with the ground using a pit-mounted foundation, enabling easy drive-on and drive-off for trucks and heavy vehicles. It is suitable for locations with limited space and is widely used in industries, logistics centers, transport hubs, mining areas, and agricultural sites.
Q: What are the main benefits of a checkered mild steel platform and anti-corrosive finish?
A: The checkered mild steel plate ensures a durable and slip-resistant surface, which improves vehicle traction and safety. The anti-corrosive painted and powder-coated matte finish further protects the platform from harsh weather and industrial environments, extending service life and maintaining accuracy.
Q: When should the weighbridge be calibrated, and what type of calibration does it use?
A: The weighbridge uses digital calibration, simplifying both initial setup and routine recalibration. It is advisable to calibrate the system periodically per regulatory standards, after major repairs or if accuracy concerns arise. Digital calibration allows for quick and precise adjustments to maintain compliance with BIS and Legal Metrology guidelines.
Q: What types of vehicles and loads can this weighbridge accommodate?
A: This industrial platform scale can accommodate trucks, lorries, and other heavy vehicles with load capacities ranging from 10 to 150 tons. Its robust construction and overload protection up to 150% ensure reliable performance even with varying vehicle sizes and weights across logistics, mining, transport, and agricultural applications.
Q: How is data recorded and managed, and which devices can connect to the system?
A: Weighing data is displayed on a digital LED or LCD monitor and can be easily transferred to a connected PC or printer via RS232/RS485 interfaces. The system supports integration with various data management software, enabling efficient weight recording, reporting, and custom printouts for operational or legal documentation.
Q: What operational features enhance reliability under industrial conditions?
A: Features such as highly accurate hermetically sealed load cells (IP65), overload protection, automatic weighing, robust construction, and anti-corrosive surface treatments all contribute to reliable, long-term operation. The availability of battery backup models (up to 24 hours) further ensures minimal downtime during power outages.
