    Features

    • Stainless steel IP69K load cells from 20 kg to 100 t
    • Integrated mounting assemblies with overload and lift-off restraints
    • Pre-calibrated load cell units for simplified installation
    • ATEX certified load cells and weight indicators
    • Touch screen batching controllers
    • Discontinuous hopper scale controllers

     

    Please note, a number of important factors can affect weighing accuracy, including:

    • Force shunts and pipe work interaction
    • Wind forces
    • External temperature changes
    • Structural interaction between vessels
    • Variable forces caused by process equipment such as mixers and agitators
    • Effectiveness of the calibration method (relating applied load to signal output)

    Factors that affect weighing accuracy

    A number of important safety and system integrity factors must be considered when fitting load cells to silos and vessels, especially in retrofit applications. Therefore, the customer should seek expert advice when designing process weighing systems. Further background information can be obtained by reading the Institute of Measurement and Control document- A Guide to the Specification and Procurement of Process Weighing Systems. This can be downloaded from the Technical Weighing section of our Download Library.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      What is a Weighbridge?

      A Weighbridge (US truck scale) is a large, low-profile scale used to weigh both road and off-road vehicles (rigid and articulated lorries, dumper trucks, vans etc) and their contents. The load carried by the vehicle is calculated by weighing the vehicle both empty and loaded. The main weighbridge deck structure can be constructed from steel, pre-stressed concrete or steel-concrete composite.

      What is a Pit-Mounted Weighbridge?

      Installed inside a pit, these weighbridges sit flush with the road surface. As they don’t require ramps, they take up less road surface compared to surface mount installations. Suitable for sites with restricted access.

      What is a Surface-Mounted Weighbridge?

      Installed above ground, these weighbridges incorporate steel or concrete ramps to allow vehicles to drive on and off. One advantage is that the ramps slow down vehicle entry speed. Less foundation works are required when compared with pit mount installations. Surface designs are suitable for temporary/portable installations when used with steel ramps.
