Forklift-Mounted Weighing
Measure load weight during the forklift lifting process without moving the goods to a separate weighing station.
SF-141 Forklift Weighing System
The WTSAFE SF-141 brings weighing directly into the forklift handling process. Sensors installed around the mast measure the load as it is lifted, while a wireless data box sends weighing information to the control unit in the operator area. Operators can view weight results, accumulate multiple measurements and print records without moving the load to a separate weighing station.

SF-540 UWB Forklift Blind Zone Warning System FAQs
Q: What is the SF-540 UWB Forklift Blind Zone Warning System?
−
−
A: The SF-540 is a fixed-area warning system for places where a forklift may approach out of sight, such as a warehouse corner or doorway. A warning unit at the risk point responds to a compatible tag on the approaching forklift and alerts nearby people with a voice message and flashing light.
Q: How is the SF-540 different from an onboard forklift proximity alarm?
+
+
A: The SF-540 is arranged around a specific crossing or blind zone. Its fixed warning unit alerts people at that location when a tagged forklift approaches. An onboard proximity system instead travels with the forklift and monitors nearby compatible tags as the vehicle moves through the site.
Q: Where should the SF-540 warning unit be installed?
+
+
A: Typical locations include rack-end blind corners, T-junctions, building entrances and exits, and crossings between forklift routes and pedestrian areas. The mounting position and warning distance should be checked against actual traffic directions and sight lines on site.
Q: What happens when a tagged forklift approaches the warning area?
+
+
A: The fixed unit detects the approaching vehicle tag within the configured warning area and activates its voice alarm and flashing warning light. This gives people near the crossing a prompt to look for the forklift and keep clear of its path.
Q: What is the SF-540’s warning distance?
+
+
A: The published SF-540 area warning distance is 1–15 m. The appropriate setting depends on the approach speed, route geometry, mounting location and available stopping distance; it should be verified during installation.
Q: Can the SF-540 detect a person without a tag?
+
+
A: The tag-based configuration should not be described as detecting every untagged person. Personnel-specific detection and warning require a suitable configuration with compatible personnel tags. If detection of untagged pedestrians is required, ask WTSAFE to assess another sensing method or a combined solution.
Q: Does the SF-540 automatically slow a forklift?
+
+
A: The SF-540’s published core function is area monitoring with voice and light alarms. Vehicle speed-control linkage may be specified as part of a compatible project configuration; it should not be assumed to be included with the warning unit alone.
Q: Can the system warn about both forklifts and pedestrians?
+
+
A: A solution equipped with compatible vehicle and personnel tags can be configured for different approach situations, including vehicle movement, personnel movement and convergence at a crossing. The exact alert logic and included tags should be confirmed for the selected installation.
Q: What power supply does the SF-540 warning unit require?
+
+
A: WTSAFE’s published specification lists AC 220 V for the SF-540 warning unit. Power requirements for vehicle tags, personnel tags or optional accessories are separate and depend on the components selected.
Q: What information is needed to plan an SF-540 installation?
+
+
A: Provide a floor plan or photos of the blind point, traffic directions, doorway or aisle dimensions, forklift quantity and whether workers will carry tags. Also identify any requirement for speed-control linkage or projected floor warnings so the complete configuration can be confirmed.
