Accurate, Compliant, and Cost-Effective Weighing for Hydrovac Vacuum Waste “Sucker” Trucks and Trailers

At Loadsense, we specialise in delivering cutting-edge onboard weighing solutions for commercial vehicles — including Hydrovac Vacuum Waste Trucks (commonly known as “Sucker Trucks”) used in liquid waste collection, septic services, industrial cleaning, and environmental management. Our system is engineered to help operators maintain compliance with Gross Vehicle Mass (GVM) regulations, improve operational safety, and avoid overloading fines.

Engineered for Vacuum Truck Applications

Vacuum waste trucks often operate under demanding and dynamic loading conditions. Loadsense has developed a reliable and precise onboard weighing system tailored specifically for these vehicles, ensuring operators can confidently monitor and manage loads in real-time.

Multi-Sensor Compatibility for Customised Installations

Our onboard weighing system supports a variety of weighing sensors, making it highly adaptable to different vehicle configurations:

  • Air Bag Weighing Sensors – Available in both wired and wireless formats, with our superior RF-type wireless technology (not Bluetooth, unlike many competitors). These sensors are installed directly on the air suspension of each axle group, with one sensor per levelling valve, delivering accurate axle-by-axle load measurements.

  • Hydraulic Pressure Weighing Sensors – Ideal for vacuum trucks with hydraulic lift hoists. Our cost-effective solution taps into the hydraulic pressure on the hoist ram, providing weight data without needing changes to the truck’s structure.

Whether you operate a rigid hydrovac vacuum truck or a combination truck and trailer setup, our system ensures precise, real-time weight data for both standalone and multi-axle configurations.
