Choose the right sensor for your suspension
Wireless axle load sensor for air suspension
Measures the air pressure in the suspension to work out axle load, giving you live readings that help prevent overloading, improve fuel efficiency and keep you within provincial weight limits.
Recommended for: trucks and trailers with air suspension, heavy-duty freight fleets, and fleet managers wanting maintenance-free load monitoring.
Wireless axle load sensor for leaf spring suspension
Measures how far the vehicle frame moves relative to the axle to calculate load on leaf spring suspensions. It helps prevent overloading, reduces wear and tear and supports compliance.
Recommended for: trucks and trailers with leaf spring suspension.
