Weighing modules for load cells

Weighing requirements for containers are solved simply and cost-effectively with weighing modules for load cells. Flat weighing modules , weighing modules or load cell systems for silo, tank and container weighing. Take advantage of the efficiency of our logistics, because we value fast delivery of our load cell products.

Weighing modules for silos/containers

Our weigh modules combine a fully welded and hermetically sealed low profile compression disc load cell (compression load cell) made of stainless steel with a compact mounting module made of galvanized steel or stainless steel. This is an ideal combination for applications in harsh environments, which also require, for example, regular washdown cleaning.

Weighing modules for load introduction for load cells

A load cell only works reliably if it has been installed correctly. The load must be introduced in such a way that the load cell is evenly loaded according to its design. So-calledweighing modulesconsist of a load cell that is already equipped with the appropriate mechanical components for correct load introduction. For example, a bending beam load cell for a platform scale must be mounted on aload footmounted so that the force can be introduced without any moment. Theload foothas a ball socket to prevent tension from building up.

Different designs of weighing modules

Weighing modules make it easier to install load cells. A simple module with an S-load cell for weighing hanging weights, for example, consists of the load cell and two eyelets or eyebolts, each of which is screwed onto the upper and lower ends of the S-load cell. This design is suitable for use in hanging or container scales for lower weights. To build such a scale for larger loads, the module must be constructed much more solidly. Here, a bending beam load cell is used, the load introduction of which is realized via solid steel angles and eyebolts. Platform and floor scales for high weights usually contain shear beam load cells that are mounted on a base plate. The load is then introduced from above via a ball socket, which evenly applies the load to the load cell.

High demands on the material for weighing modules

In addition to the load cell, the material used to build a module must also meet the highest standards. Weighing modules are usually used under harsh industrial conditions. They are exposed to dirt, moisture and fluctuating climatic conditions. It is therefore important that only high-quality steel alloys are used to build such a module. The steel used must be corrosion-free and must not deform under the influence of force. Only then can the long-term function of the entire module be guaranteed.
