• Optimized for Aerospace Applications: Designed specifically to support aircraft weight and balance calculation protocols, including various platform and jack weighing systems (Jack Weigh Kits).
• Robust Construction: Engineered to withstand the rigors of the airport environment, ensuring reliable operation across wide temperature ranges and fluctuating conditions.
• Data Management Capacity: Capable of storing and managing a database of aircraft types, as well as recording measurement results for later analysis and auditing.

Technical Specifications

The performance and reliability of the TAC30™ CPU are supported by the following detailed technical specifications:

Detailed Features and Integration

The TAC30™ CPU supports the user in every step of the measurement process:

1. Weight Data Acquisition and Processing

The display unit directly receives wireless signals from connected load cells (whether they are sensors from platforms or jack weighing kits). The built-in processor immediately processes this data and displays the weight of individual points as well as the total gross weight.

2. Center of Gravity (CG) Calculation

Accurate determination of the aircraft's center of gravity is critical for stability. The TAC30™ allows the user to pre-enter the aircraft's basic dimensions and the position of the measurement points (X, Y, Z coordinates). The system then automatically calculates the center of gravity based on the measured values and visually indicates whether it falls within the safe operating range.

3. Aircraft Profile Management

The device is capable of storing weight and balance profiles belonging to multiple aircraft types. This drastically speeds up work, as the user does not need to re-enter aircraft specifications for every measurement. Profiles may include:

• The basic weight and empty weight of the aircraft.
• The reference points of the center of gravity.
• The maximum allowable load limits.

4. RFX® Wireless Ecosystem

The TAC30™ is an integral part of the Intercomp RFX® wireless system. This technology ensures that no cables are required between the load cells and the indicator, which increases flexibility during installation and reduces the risk of accidents in busy airport environments. The system ensures excellent signal stability and interference resistance.

5. Calibration and Diagnostic Tools

The TAC30™ menu system provides access to full diagnostic and calibration functions. This allows for regular checks and maintenance of the measuring instruments' accuracy, which is essential for compliance with strict aviation regulations. The calibration process guides the operator step-by-step.

Application Areas

The TAC30™ CPU indicator is the ideal choice for any area where the precise determination of weight and balance is critical:

• Commercial Air Transport: Daily weighing of passenger and cargo aircraft.
• Military Installations: Checking the load and center of gravity of military aircraft.
• Aircraft Maintenance and Repair: Center of gravity checks after component replacement.
• eVTOL Development: Support for weight management of next-generation electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) vehicles.
• Jack Weigh Systems: Control of measurements taken with weighing scales (e.g., AC100™ or EZ RFX® kits).

The TAC30™ CPU touchscreen indicator is the perfect synthesis of reliability, accuracy, and modern user experience among Intercomp's measurement solutions.
