About RAVAS SafeCheck
The RAVAS SafeCheck is a warning device with a buzzer alarm that sounds whenever the load on the forks exceeds a preset limit, assisting the driver in avoiding potentially dangerous overload situations. The alarm has a clearly audible sound of at least 85dB at a distance of 30cm.
How RAVAS SafeCheck Works
- The RAVAS SafeCheck uses a pressure sensor to measure the hydraulic pressure in the lifting circuit (cylinder) of the truck by means of a T-coupling.
- The indicator in the cabin translates the measurement into a weight indication of the load on the forks. Using the keyboard of the indicator, a maximum allowed load can be entered.
- Every time the load on the forks exceeds that value, the warning buzzer goes off. To reduce the influence of the condition of the mast and the cylinder, the weighing is always performed at the same height. Stickers are placed on the mast and carriage plate to clearly mark the reference height at which the weighing should occur.
- The system is powered by the truck battery and automatically switches on when the truck starts, so it’s active whenever the truck is operative.
