 Enviko Quartz Sensors: The Superior Choice for Dynamic Weigh-in-Motion (WIM) Systems

In today's rapidly evolving transportation industry, accurate and reliable dynamic weighing systems are crucial. Enviko Quartz sensors, with their superior performance and innovative design, are redefining the standards for Weigh-In-Motion (WIM) technology. Let's explore how Enviko Quartz outperforms the competition in this demanding market.

1.     Unparalleled Measurement Accuracy and Range

Enviko Quartz sensors, utilizing advanced quartz piezoelectric technology, achieve high-precision measurements meeting CLASS 2, 5, and 10 standards. This means they can accurately weigh vehicles ranging from heavy trucks to bicycles with consistent sensitivity. This unmatched versatility provides unprecedented reliability for traffic management and toll systems.

2.     Revolutionary Installation Convenience

Traditional WIM sensor installation is often time-consuming and labor-intensive. Enviko Quartz changes this paradigm:

·         Requires only 58mm installation depth, 28% less than common strain gauge sensors.

·         Installation typically completed in 1-2 days, significantly reducing traffic disruption.

This quick, low-invasive installation not only saves time and costs but also minimizes impact on road structures.

3.     Outstanding Durability and Reliability

In WIM systems, sensor lifespan directly affects overall system operational costs and efficiency. Enviko Quartz excels in this aspect:

·         Average lifespan exceeding 5 years, with some applications lasting more.

·         In contrast, traditional strain gauge sensors typically last only 1-3 years.

Moreover, Enviko Quartz features robust overload protection, capable of withstanding axle loads of 40 tonnes or more for short periods, significantly enhancing system reliability under harsh conditions.

·         Integrated precision tolerance：Better than ±2.5%

 

Comparison with Competitors

1.      Kistler Quartz Sensors While similar in technical specifications to Enviko Quartz, Kistler sensors are disadvantaged by their higher price point, reducing cost-effectiveness.

2.      Bending Plate/Plate Sensors

o    High temperature sensitivity, requiring complex compensation systems.

o    Installation requires damaging large road areas (about 6 square meters), increasing safety risks.

o    Short lifespan of 1-3 years, leading to high maintenance costs.

3.      Intercomp Strip Sensors

o    Lower measurement accuracy, only achieving CLASS 5, 10 standards, underperforming in high weight ranges.

o    Requires 76mm deep installation channels, complicating the installation process.

o    Short lifespan (1-3 years), resulting in high operational costs.

o    High temperature sensitivity, increasing system complexity.
