Weigh modules can integrate onto existing structures and provide SafeLock safety features

Weighing large tanks, vessels and silos presents safety challenges, and weigh modules can be difficult to install. Mettler Toledo has introduced a new 100 Ton PinMount weigh module that offers manufacturers an opportunity to easily and safely convert such structures into high-capacity scales, even in harsh environments and classified hazardous areas. The models in the PinMount weigh module family weigh 7.5 to 100 tons.

PinMount weigh modules can integrate onto existing structures and provide SafeLock safety features. Those features help simplify the installation of tank, silo and conveyor scales and can prevent accidents and ensure efficient installation.

The PinMount includes self-aligning rocker-style load cells.The PinMount’s dual anti-lift devices and vertical downstops prevent damage due to environmental forces and component failure.
