The RDS LIFTALERT is a forklift overload monitoring system designed to provide operators with real-time load visibility. Using hydraulic pressure sensors, it calculates the load as a percentage of the preset maximum capacity and displays this data on an easy-to-read LCD screen.
When the load approaches or exceeds safe limits, the system delivers audible alerts and a flashing signal, enhancing safety by preventing overloads in warehouse and dispatch environments.
It features a rugged IP67-rated waterproof housing and a non-intrusive installation bracket that allows flexible mounting without blocking visibility. Its accuracy of +/- 2% of truck capacity ensures dependable performance without driver input, and the memory function logs overload events, promoting responsible operation and reducing maintenance costs. The RDS LIFTALERT is an overload protection system that supports productivity while protecting equipment, personnel, and cargo.
