PT300™ Portable Wheel Load Scale for Military Vehicles
The Intercomp PT300™ wheel load scale is excellently suited for the precise axle and gross weight measurement of military vehicles, whether for rapid field checks or base operations calibration. This robust, portable weighing system is designed to meet military specifications, ensuring reliability and high accuracy even in the harshest environments.
The PT300™ system offers an ideal solution for verifying vehicle load, optimizing weight distribution, and guaranteeing compliance with legal and tactical requirements.
Key Features and Advantages
The PT300™ series has been developed keeping in mind the special requirements of military applications:
- Military-Grade Construction: The weighing units (platforms) are extremely durable, resistant to extreme temperature conditions, vibration, and mechanical stress.
- High Accuracy: The system provides extremely accurate measurements, which is essential for the safe operation of vehicles and adherence to load limits.
- Portability and Quick Setup: Thanks to the lightweight design, the scales can be quickly deployed and moved between different locations, minimizing downtime.
- Wireless Communication: Wireless connection between the platforms and the display unit (if supported by the configuration) facilitates handling and reduces cabling risks.
- Integrated Functions: The system is capable of displaying and recording individual wheel weights, axle loads, and the total gross weight of the vehicle.

PT300™ Applications in the Military Sector
The PT300™ wheel weigh system is extremely versatile and plays a key role in military logistics and technical support:
- Tactical Load Monitoring: Rapid weight measurement before and after deployment, ensuring vehicles are not overloaded, which is critical for mobility and safety.
- Axle Load Monitoring: Accurate data collection on individual axle loads, essential for maintaining vehicle stability on uneven terrain.
- Logistics Distribution: Determining the precise weight of shipments for efficient resource management.
- Maintenance and Calibration: Inspection and adjustment of vehicle suspension systems based on measured wheel loads.
- Weighing Special Vehicles: Capable of handling military equipment fitted with wide tires (with PT300DW™ option) or special track systems.
Display and Data Management
The system's display unit (indicator) ensures user-friendly operation and reliable data recording.
- Multi-function Display: Real-time display of left/right wheel weight, front/rear axle weight, and total vehicle weight.
- Memory Function: Capable of storing weight data for multiple vehicles, including date and identifier, facilitating subsequent auditing.
- Unit Selection: Ability to switch between metric (kg) or imperial (lbs) measurement units.
- Easy Integration: Data can be transferred via the output ports to external databases or vehicle diagnostic systems.
Advantages of the PT300™ System Over Competitors
The Intercomp PT300™ series is specifically optimized for military and heavy industrial use, distinguishing it from commercial-grade scales:
- Robustness: The design of the platforms guarantees a long service life even in harsh, maintenance-free environments.
- Alacsony Profil: The extremely low-profile design facilitates vehicle loading, especially for vehicles with low ground clearance or armored vehicles.
- Modular Design: The system is easily expandable or repairable because the platforms and displays function as independent units.
This portable wheel scale offers the perfect alloy of reliability, precision, and the durability required for military applications.
