Process Scales |
This low-cost,
low-maintenance scale is ideal for obtaining accurate, reliable
continuous weighing of dry bulk materials in capacities from 0.5
- 90 tons per hour. Three standard sizes are available to handle
a wide variety of materials from grain, flour, rice and screenings
to plastic, coke and cement.
Accurate.
Whether you need legal-for-trade weights, or to monitor production
and inventory, this scale delivers 99.9% accuracy with full government
compliance. The system is NTEP approved - for all shipping, receiving
and in-process applications.
High-Speed.
A superior tension load cell design and high-volume discharge gates
provide fast cycling time of 10-15 seconds. For maximum throughput
and continuous material flow the system can be supplied with upper
and lower hoppers.
Simple.
No special training is required to operate the system. The scale
is shipped completely assembled, pre-tested and ready for installation
for long, trouble-free service. Removable doors provide easy access
for testing and maintenance.
Reliable.
Precision design and fabrication allow 24-hour/day performance
even in the harshest environments. The fully enclosed design ensures
dust-tight operation and is virtually maintenance-free. Weigh hopper,
gates and pneumatic cylinders are made of stainless steel for durability.
Gate speed controls provide for smooth operation.
The system can be supplied as a stand-alone weigh
hopper or with upper and lower hoppers to increase throughput and
maintain a continuous flow of material. The system can be easily
modified to handle special applications.
