Weigh ModuleType




   Weigh Module Type       
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   Compression
 
     Compression weigh modules are used to convert static loading applications such as tanks, or dynamic applications such as conveyors, into a scale. In tank and other static structures, the weigh modules mount under the legs or supporting structure.
 
   Tension
 
     Tension weigh modules convert a suspended tank or hopper into a scale. Mounting hardware ensures that only the vertical load is measured, providing reliable weighing.

Capacity




   Capacity
 
     Capacity is the maximum load the scale or balance can measure without permanently damaging the device.
 
   Search Logic:      User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
   Resolution
 
     Resolution refers to the smallest input or change in input that the device is able to detect.
 
   Search Logic:      User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
Features / Certifications




   Features       
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   Washdown
 
     The scale can withstand a high-pressure washdown or hosing.
 
   Hostile Environment
 
     The scale can withstand and function within hostile or extreme environments, including: high or low temperature; high humidity; chemical vapors; varying pressure; or shock and vibration.
 
   Search Logic:      All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.
   Ratings / Certifications       
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   IP66
 
     The scale is IP66 rated. The first digit (6) indicates that the scale is sealed against dust. The second digit (6) indicates that the scale is protected against pressurized jets of water.
 
   IP67
 
     The scale is IP67 rated. The first digit (6) indicates that the scale is sealed against dust. The second digit (7) indicates that the scale is protected against immersion at depths between 15 cm and 1 m.
 
   NEMA 4
 
     Scales with a NEMA 4 rating are designed for indoor or outdoor use. An enclosure protects personnel against incidental contact with the scale, and protects the scale from falling dirt, rain, sleet, snow, windblown dust, splashing water and hose-directed water. NEMA 4 scales are undamaged by the external formation of ice. They are not necessarily corrosion resistant.
 
   NEMA 4X
 
     Scales with a NEMA 4X rating are designed for indoor or outdoor use. An enclosure protects personnel against incidental contact with the scale, and protects the scale from falling dirt, rain, sleet, snow, windblown dust, splashing water and hose-directed water. NEMA 4X scales are undamaged by the external formation of ice. They are also corrosion resistant.
 
   NTEP Certified
 
     The scale is certified by the National Type Evaluation Program (NTEP). The National Conference on Weights and Measures (NCWM) issues an NTEP Certificate of Conformance for scales that have been successfully evaluated and tested.
 
   WEEE Compliant
 
     Waste Electrical and Electronics Equipment (WEEE) is a European Union (EU) directive that is designed to encourage the reuse, recycling and recovery of electrical and electronic equipment. WEEE establishes criteria and requirements for the collection, treatment, recycling and recovery of this equipment. It also makes producers responsible for financing these activities. For their part, retailers and distributors must provide a way for consumers to return used or obsolete equipment without charge. WEEE became effective on August 1, 2005.
 
   Other
 
     Other, unlisted rating or certifications.
