Low-Profile Mid Capacity Aircraft Scales Description
Low-Profile Mid Capacity platform scale systems are largely used for fixed wing military transport or commercial narrow body aircraft for maintenance and weight and balance operations.
Used in sets of three to ten scales, these low-profile aircraft scales are used for aircraft with wheel weights up to 30,000 lb (15,000 kg)
Scales are low-profile to minimize towing distance for ramps and single person portable for fast deployment and storage. The aircraft platform scales have a large 15"x22" (38 cm x 57 cm) active weighing platform making for easier tire placement to simplify weighing procedures.
Taking advantage of GaugeSense™ technology, Intercomp Low-Profile Mid Capacity scale systems perform with 0.1% accuracy and excellent repeatability weighing on hangar floors while canceling side loads and allowing for off center loading. Incorporating temperature compensation eliminates the need for time consuming warm up, the RFX® wireless and certified intrinsically safe low-profile scale make Intercomp platform weighing systems the safest, most cost effective and reliable weighing equipment available on the market.

Application Notes for Low-Profile Mid Capacity Aircraft Scales
Intercomp low-profile mid capacity platform aircraft scales are used for fixed or rotary wing aircraft with wheel weights up to 40,000 lb (20,000 kg). Using AC40-LP™ low-profile aircraft scales, the process of deploying ramps, scales, and overrun spacers takes a matter of minutes. The following applications reflect the broad use potential of Intercomp’s AC40-LP™ platform scales.
Intrinsically Safe Scales in Aircraft Hangars
Areas immediately around aircraft have the potential of fuel or fumes to be present, and this needs to be accounted for when servicing aircraft. Widely recognized at the global leader in fully electronic wireless aircraft platform scales, Intercomp has received ATEX EX certification for the range of wireless platform scales.
Platform Weighing of RQ-4 Global Hawk UAVs with AC40-LP™
For almost 20 years, RQ-4 UAVs have been weighed on Intercomp’s Intrinsically Safe low-profile platform scales. Highly accurate weight and balance data for the fueled aircraft is provided by certified Intrinsically Safe scales to meet safety standards around the world for aircraft hangars
Platform Weighing of Narrowbody Aircraft with AC40-LP™
AC40-LP™ low-profile scales provide airframe manufacturers, airlines and MROs with standardized platform weighing and reports that rely on decades of repeatability, and reliability, of Intercomp aircraft scales.
Customized Aircraft Scale Systems
When their team at the Wallops Flight Facility secured a new contract to support the missions of the US Navy, US Air Force, and NASA, with a unique fleet of three aircraft, Yulista Tactical Services reached out to Intercomp for aircraft scales which could meet the accuracy requirements of the contract.
