Safety Features for Weigh Modules

A brochure from Mettler Toledo explains how modern safety features not only can ensure the safe and fast installation of weigh modules, but can also benefit businesses in terms of accuracy and uptime.

The manufacturer’s Multmount and Pinmount weigh modules are designed with Safelock features that protect the load cell from accidental overload during the lowering of the tank onto the weigh module. Safelock also immobilizes all moving parts of the weigh module and facilitates precise positioning during installation. The weigh modules’ incorporated Rockerpin load introduction feature provides the best weighing performance in case of deformation of the understructure, as a result of thermal effects or load changes, while protecting load cells inside the conveyor scales from side shocks.
