RFX® Wireless Handheld Controller
The RFX® Wireless Handheld Controller is an accessory for Intercomp's advanced weighing systems, designed for maximum flexibility and user-friendly operation. This highly versatile device is the ideal choice for the remote control and data acquisition of scales and systems used across various industries – from aerospace to vehicle weighing and agricultural applications. RFX® technology ensures stable, interference-free communication between weighing platforms and central units, minimizing cabling limitations and increasing safety at weighing points.
Key Features and Advantages
The RFX® handheld controller offers a wide scale of functions tailored to modern weighing requirements:
- Wireless Connection: Eliminates the risk of accidents caused by cables and reduces installation time. It allows the operator to perform measurements from a safe distance with an optimal view.
- Compatibility: Provides wide-ranging compatibility with various Intercomp weighing systems, including aircraft scales (e.g.: AC100™ CPU), vehicle axle weighing systems (PT300™, LP600™), and other special measuring units.
- Intuitive User Interface: The user-friendly design ensures quick and easy access to the most important functions and measured data.
- Robust Construction: Designed to withstand the rigors of harsh industrial, agricultural, and airport environments.
- Real-Time Data Display: Allows for instant verification of weight data, center of gravity (CG) calculations, and system diagnostics.
Application Areas
Using the RFX® controller significantly improves efficiency and accuracy in the following areas:
Aerospace and Center of Gravity Calculation
The RFX® controller is an essential tool in aircraft weight and balance measurements. It communicates directly with aircraft weighing systems (e.g., Jack Weigh kits or platform scales), enabling pilots and ground personnel to:
- Monitor wheel loads in real time.
- Perform immediate Center of Gravity (CG) calculations by working in conjunction with the TAC30™ CPU or the RFX® Wireless AC100™ Aircraft Scale CPU.
- Quickly and accurately verify load distribution, which is essential for safe takeoff and flight.
Vehicle and Truck Weighing
During the weighing of trucks, commercial vehicles, and special vehicles, the RFX® ensures remote data acquisition:
- Wheel and Axle Load Measurement: Can be used with portable weighing systems (e.g.: PT300™, LP600™), allowing the operator to avoid working under or in close proximity to the vehicle.
- WIM (Weigh-In-Motion) Systems: Supports the measurement of axle loads of moving vehicles in ITS (Intelligent Transportation Systems) and traffic monitoring applications.
Agricultural Measurements
When paired with agricultural scales (e.g., grain carts, TMR mixers), the RFX® allows the operator to precisely monitor filling processes while standing in the cab or next to the machine, ensuring accurate dosing and maximum utilization of load capacity.

- Vehicle Scales: Compatible with portable wheel load weighers (PT300™, PT300DW™), low profile scales (LP600™) and WIM systems (LS-WIM®, LS630-WIM™).
- Force Measuring Test Benches: Can be used for remote control and data collection of calibration and test systems (CSM™, CSA™).
Advantages of Wireless Freedom
Introducing the RFX® handheld controller into measurement processes brings significant operational advantages:
- Increased Safety: The operator can remain away from busy areas, moving vehicles, or hazardous lift points while maintaining full control over the measurement.
- Improved Accuracy: The operator can observe vehicle stability from the best position during measurement, minimizing the influence of external factors (e.g.: wind, ground unevenness) on the reading.
- Faster Operations: Wireless data transmission and quick menu navigation shorten measurement cycles, which is particularly critical in sites requiring rapid throughput (e.g., airports, freight yards).
- Simplified Calibration and Diagnostics: Remote access allows for quick checking and fine-tuning of instruments without requiring the operator to physically access the central unit.
The RFX® Wireless Handheld Controller reflects Intercomp's commitment to the most modern, reliable, and safe weighing solutions, whether for precision aerospace center of gravity calculations or large capacity vehicle inspections.
