FAQ: What’s the difference between Cardinal’s digital and hydraulic truck scales?
Answer: Cardinal’s digital truck scales use SmartCell® or other digital load cells with internal electronics for precise digital signal measurement, streamlined wiring, and advanced remote diagnostics via iSite®.
Hydraulic truck scales use sealed hydraulic load cells that are highly resistant to moisture, electrical interference, and lightning, and are backed by a lifetime warranty - making them ideal for harsh environments.
Both systems are built for long-term durability and accuracy, and the best choice depends on your site conditions, monitoring needs, and maintenance preferences.
