Where the Hippo-A 60T fits
The Hippo-A is the 60-tonne member of ESİT's Hippo family. Scalestech supplies it in the 060T-HI-A-0314 configuration: a 3 m × 14 m steel deck on eight IP68 ESİT SC load cells, read by a PWI-T weighing terminal with 20 kg divisions and a 400 kg minimum weighing. That deck length suits rigid trucks, tippers and shorter combinations, the typical traffic at grain stores, farms, factories, recyclers and depots. For full-length articulated trucks or loads above 60 tonnes, compare the Hippo-S 60–80T (18 m deck) and the Hippo Hi-A 100T.
Pit-mount or surface-mount
Hippo-A can be installed flush in a pit or on the surface with access ramps. A pit installation saves yard space and lets trucks drive straight across; a surface installation needs less excavation and suits sites with a high water table or rocky ground. Scalestech surveys the site, provides foundation drawings for your civil contractor, then installs, connects and calibrates the weighbridge.
Calibration and Weights & Measures verification
A weighbridge used to buy, sell or charge by weight must be verified and stamped by the Weights & Measures Department before it is used for trade, and re-verified periodically. Scalestech calibrates every Hippo-A at handover, arranges verification and offers service contracts for routine calibration. See our calibration and repair services.
Frequently asked questions
60 tonnes, with a 400 kg minimum weighing and 20 kg divisions.
Yes. Hippo decks are 3 m wide and produced in lengths from 4 m to 24 m in 2 m steps, so a longer deck can be quoted to suit your trucks.
The PWI-T terminal stores 100,000 weighings and prints tickets. For cameras, number-plate recognition and ERP export, add SPWin weighbridge software.
Recent projects include Rift Grain Logistics in Eldoret, Mai Mahiu in Nakuru County and Mr. Green Africa in Nairobi.
