New load-point mounting choice from Hardy Instruments

Hardy Instruments has announced a choice of mounting hardware for its ADVANTAGE® Lite series of Load Points, its medium capacity, compression type, stainless steel load points and sensor line. The new rubber element mounts provide stray voltage isolation, minor misalignment correction, thermal expansion and shock absorption for the weigh system. 

The new mounting choice joins the wire rope mounting hardware in enabling the vessel to expand or contract while the critical point of contact of force on the sensor remains the same.

Each load point comes pre-assembled with a C2® compatible, matched, and sealed load sensor. Each sensor’s performance characteristics are stored in an internal memory device.  A C2® certified instrument uses these parameters to electronically and effortlessly calibrate the scale system.

ADVANTAGE® Lite compression load points are available in capacities of 440, 1.1k, 2.2k and 4.4k Lbs and can be used in applications such as tank, hopper and vessel weighing, process measurement and batch weighing.
