RSS2587 RDS Technology is to debut its Loadmaster iX range of on-board weighing instruments for wheeled loaders at INTERMAT 2012.

Loadmaster iX is said to benefit from additional standard features including temperature compensation enhancing system performance particularly on machines with a wide variation in operating temperature and angle compensation providing an additional level of precision beneficial on most sites and not only those with obvious slopes.

“In addition, the Loadmaster iX range offers effective management of weighing data. The Loadmaster 8000iX has an integral SD card port for the fast and efficient transfer of data between loader and weighbridge or office PC and enables pre-registered customer reference data to be uploaded directly to the instrument,” says the company.

The company has recently gained approval via the UK National Measurements Office to self-verify its instruments, and subject to formal training by RDS Technology, this approval extends to all EU RDS distributors.
