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 RAVAS-SafeCheck is a simple and affordable warning system for forklift
trucks, with an audio alarm that goes off when the weight on the forks exceeds
a preset limit. The alarm only switches off again once the load is reduced to
below the limit again.

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. To ensure this, 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.
