Electrical Shrouds for Vehicle Weighing Systems

Vehicle Sensor Protection Cap

Background

Runfold Plastics were approached by a company to provide a cost effective solution for a protective cover for vehicle on board weighing sensor. 

Application

Additional protection is required for IP sensor to prevent road debris and dirt ingress. Although the sensor is IP rated the environment on the underside of a vehicle is particularly challenging, the protection cap shroud adds the extra prevention of the road debris and dirt ingress from destroying the IP rated sensor. 

Solution

We were able to provide the plastic flexible cover with the benefit of cost effective tooling and a quality solution in terms of manufacturing tolerances for the application.
