Frequently asked questions
What is an industrial weighing system and what does it consist of?
An industrial weighing system turns the weight of a vessel, a platform or a moving material into a numerical value usable in the process. It usually consists of load cells that take up the force, mounting accessories that protect the cells from lateral forces and expansion, a junction box when there are several cells, and an indicator or transmitter that displays the weight or sends it to the control system. The quality of the measurement depends as much on the mechanical installation as on the electronic components, which is why it helps us to receive the data of the vessel or the line before we recommend a complete set.
Why choose weighing over level measurement?
Level shows the height of the product, and converting it into mass requires exact knowledge of the vessel geometry and of the density, which changes with temperature, foam or stratification. Weighing measures mass directly, so it does not depend on these variables and works equally well for viscous or abrasive products or ones that form deposits on sensors. It is the right choice for recipe dosing, material balances and inventory. For simple level monitoring, a level sensor may be sufficient and more economical, so the choice is made according to the purpose of the measurement.
What standards and metrological requirements apply to weighing equipment?
Load cells are classified into accuracy classes according to OIML R60, and weighing instruments used in commercial transactions are subject to legal metrology, with type approval and metrological verification according to the legislation in force. For internal processes with no commercial effect, approval is not mandatory, but a suitable accuracy class remains important. The exact requirements depend on the type of instrument and the use, so please state from the start whether the weight is used for invoicing or settlement between parties.
How is a weighing system on a tank or silo calibrated?
The ideal method is calibration with test weights or with a separately weighed quantity of product, because it checks both the electronics and the mechanical structure. For large vessels, where test weights cannot be applied, calculated calibration is used, based on the nominal sensitivity of the cells from the certificate and the rated load; the result is sufficient for many processes, but less accurate. After replacing a cell or after mechanical changes, the calibration is repeated. Keeping the parameters in a backup copy and checking the zero periodically is recommended.
What data should I send for an industrial weighing quote?
For vessels and platforms, send the tare weight and the maximum weight of the product, the number of support points, the working environment and the desired accuracy. For gravimetric feeders or belt weighers, add the material, the flow rate and the characteristics of the flow or of the belt. If you are replacing existing equipment, the make, the model and the code on the nameplate help us. For parts, delivery usually takes 24–72 h when the item is available locally or at the supplier; for complete systems, to order, usually 1–4 weeks, and depending on the brand and the specifications it may take longer.
How long does delivery of industrial weighing equipment take?
Delivery usually takes 24–72 h when the item is available locally or at the supplier. Special load cells, those for classified areas, complete systems with mounting accessories, gravimetric feeders and belt weighers are brought in to order, usually in 1–4 weeks. Depending on the brand and the specifications it may take longer, especially for approved or specially configured versions. To establish a realistic lead time, please send us the product code or the application data, and we confirm availability before the order.
