When Every Engine Counts
In transport, time is money — and every truck that’s not on the road costs you both. South Africa’s demanding routes, extreme temperatures, and heavy loads push engines to their limits every single day. One small issue — a failed fan belt, a drop in oil pressure, or an overheating radiator — can rapidly escalate into a costly breakdown.

That’s why Loadtech brings you the Loadtech Line 500 Engine Protector, a smart, proactive system designed to safeguard your fleet before trouble strikes. Installed and supported nationwide, Loadtech gives your vehicles the intelligent protection they need to stay productive and profitable.

Protection That Thinks Ahead
By the time a dashboard warning light comes on, the damage may already be underway.
The Loadtech Line 500 acts much sooner — continuously monitoring critical engine health indicators such as oil pressure, temperature, and voltage.

If a reading moves toward a danger zone, the system immediately alerts the driver with a clear audible or visual warning. In extreme situations, it can automatically shut the engine down to prevent catastrophic failure.

This early-action protection means fewer breakdowns, less downtime, and significantly lower repair costs — keeping your fleet earning, not stranded.

Why Fleets Choose the Loadtech Line 500

• Longer engine life: Prevent overheating, oil pressure drops, and mechanical failure.
• Lower maintenance costs: Early detection avoids major component damage.
• Real-time driver feedback: Clear, easy-to-interpret warnings.
• Reliable uptime: Fewer roadside failures and quicker workshop decisions.
• Total peace of mind: Continuous protection so drivers can focus on the road.

Enhanced Visibility with the VIEWIT Dashboard
The Loadtech Line 500 pairs seamlessly with VIEWIT, our intelligent fleet monitoring dashboard.

Operators and workshop teams can access:

• Live engine health data (temperature, pressure, voltage)
• Fault alerts as they happen
• History of all events and resets
• Notification logs showing what was triggered, when, and by which vehicle
• Instant push notifications sent to managers, fleet controllers, or workshop staff

This gives your team full insight into each vehicle’s engine condition — no guessing, no delays, just clear actionable data.

How It Works
At its core, the Loadtech Line 500 uses a network of durable sensors that constantly monitor engine vitals. When irregularities occur — such as sudden heat spikes or dropping oil pressure — the system responds immediately.

Every event is stored in its internal memory and reflected on the VIEWIT dashboard, including:

• High temperature
• Low oil pressure
• Voltage spikes or drops
• Disconnected or defective sensors
• Driver or workshop resets
• Full alert history

This detailed record empowers technicians to pinpoint faults quickly and accurately, dramatically reducing diagnostic time.
