The system offer flexibility: wherever you load, the scale is at hand!

A load scale system permits you to control the following ;

Your Data :

Permits to have precise data and exact weight. No more false estimates!

Your Costs :

If the truck is overloaded ,you have a risk of being fined and if the truck is not loaded enough you lose time and money!

Your time :

A scale increases productivity on the site by optimizing your loads . A load done properly the first time permits incredible time saved! , and reduces rotations of vehicles.

Range limiting device, because that is the regulation! 

Many organizations, notably Hydro Québec and the CNESST require that construction equipment must be equipped with a range limiting device that blocks the system to avoid contact with electrical wires and any environmental obstacles. You thus have to conform to the « Safety code for construction ». 

What is a range limiting device?

The range limiting device is a safety device and assistance for equipment operators. It is a monitoring device which supplies the operator precise indication on the positioning of the machine in respect to environmental obstacles which will protect the operator. It therefore limits the risk of the machine to come into contact with environmental obstacles (Electrical wires, walls, ceilings, etc.).

For more infomation about MEGA range limiting device: 

Because simplicity + reliability = Security 

In order to comply with the law, does not mean it needs to be a complicated task. The MEGA range limiting device is simple and easy to program. The Alltech Group recommends the 600 series for all excavation jobs.

The range limiting device MEGA 6000 is designed to program a height limit and a rotation limit (left, right). It is also possible to program multiple limits (optional) and to indicate the depth of the bucket (optional). The range limiting device series model 6000 was conceived for a use on many types of machines. It can be installed on all makes and models of equipment.

It adapts too many types of installations;

• Excavator
• Mini-excavator
• Backhoe
• Wheeled excavator
• Excavator double –boom

The range limiting device is an indispensable tool for your security while operating an excavator below electrical wires.

Yes, it’s the law, but above all it is for your security!

The blind spots in the front and the rear of a machine

represents the most dangerous zones.

Accidents caused by blind spots represent major unforeseen expenses to your company. A camera system would dramatically reduce these expenses. A tanker truck backing up can be very dangerous and could cause bodily injuries to people who are nearby.

A camera decreases the blind spots for the operator thus reducing the risk of serious accidents.

Many operators have confirmed that when backing up a loader in a quarry or a crushing site that they are unable to see behind them even with a rear-view mirror. Mining trucks backing up in a dynamite zone can now avoid sharp rocks which damage their tires, thus saving thousands of dollars for tire replacements.

DIVISION V

WORK IN THE PROXIMITY OF ELECTRICAL LINES

§5.1. Scope

5.1.1. This Division applies to any construction work carried out near an aerial electrical line.

R.R.Q., 1981, c. S-2.1, r. 6, s. 5.1.1.

5.1.2. However, this Division does not apply to:

(a) a neutral conductor;

(b) an insulated cable less than 750 volts of the duplex, triplex or quadruplex

assembly type;

(c) a consumer or distributor branching less than 750

volts;

(d) the electrical installation of the consumer;

(e) the construction, repair or maintenance of an electrical line carried out by a worker of an electrical power company or by an employer authorized by it;

(f) the construction, repair or maintenance of a communications network performed on a structure supporting an electrical line by an employer authorized by an electrical power company; and

(g) work performed near an electrical line 750 volts or less, provided that there is insulation between the worker and the non insulated live parts.

R.R.Q., 1981, c. S-2.1, r. 6, s. 5.1.2.

§5.2. Interdictions

5.2.1. The employer shall ensure that no one performs work liable to bring any part, load, scaffolding, machine component or person closer than the minimum approach distance specified in the following table:

___________________________________________________

Tension between phases Minimum approach (volts) distance (metres)

Less than 125 000         3

125 000 to 250 000      5

250 000 to 550 000      8

More than 550 000       12

___________________________________________________

R.R.Q., 1981, c. S-2.1, r. 6, s. 5.2.1; O.C. 35-2001, s. 22.

5.2.2. The employer who wishes to carry out work liable to bring any part, load, scaffolding, machine component or person closer to an electrical line than the minimum approach distance specified in section 5.2.1, may proceed to such work provided that one of the following conditions is complied with:

(a) that power line has been turned off. He shall ensure that no one runs any risk of being electrocuted before turning the power on again;

(b) the employer has come to an agreement with the electrical power company as to safety measures to be adopted. Before the work begins, he shall transmit a copy of such agreement as well as his work plan to the Commission. Such measures shall be carried out before the work begins and shall be maintained throughout the course of the work;

(c) extensible construction equipment, such as a backhoe, a power shovel, a crane or a dump truck, shall be equipped with a device that has 2 functions:

(i) to warn the operator or to stop the equipment from operating, so that the minimum approach distance specified in section 5.2.1 is respected;

(ii) to stop the equipment from operating, should the device fail to perform its first function.

The device referred to in subparagraph c must be the subject of a written declaration signed by a member of the Ordre des ingénieurs du Québec certifying that it performs the functions described in clauses i and ii above and that it neither damages the equipment nor renders it unstable when it stops the equipment from operating. If the device fails to operate partially or completely, or is inoperative, the employer may continue to use the extensible construction equipment for a total of not more than 8 hours of working time, provided that he is assisted by a flagperson who has successfully completed the training course in the program described in Schedule 7.
