Scale Technology
Corrosion Proof Scales .The scale industry has traditionally offered two major technologies, Strain Gauge and Force Restoration (also known as Force Motor). Accurate Weighing Scales has developed and introduced to the market a superior, third technology called Surface Acoustic Wave, (Surface Acoustic Wave) scales.
Specialty Weighing
The weighing process is used throughout all industries and in various capacities. Accurate Weighing Scales specializes in solutions for a wide variety of specialty requirements and can develop and manufacture weight sensors that have sensitivities as great as one hundredth of a gram and other weight sensors with capacities as great as 2,000 kg.
Custom Weighing Instruments and Data Delivery
Accurate Weighing Scales designs electronic instrumentation to measure the weight accurately, and conveniently report that weight in many different formats to suit your needs. The data can be viewed by a simple digital display locally, sent as a 4 Ð 20 ma signal to a PLC or the weight data can be sent to a computer, or the Internet.
Please contact us to discuss your special weighing requirements and Accurate Weighing Scales will design a custom weighing system just for you.

Corrosion Proof Scales to Weigh Chlorine Tablets
Chlorine tablets are used to make water potable by disinfecting and purifying drinking water as well as the water used in swimming pools. It’s also widely used as bleach in the manufacture of paper and cloth as well as solvents, pesticides, synthetic rubber, refrigerants and a variety of other commercial products Accurate Weighing Scales is here to supply corrosion proof weighing scales which suit your weighing needs.
Corrosion and the Manufacturing Process
Chlorine is generally shipped in steel cylinders as a compressed liquefied gas, but can still pose a threat to the equipment used to barrel, weigh, and ship them especially if there is a breakage or leak. Equipment that must handle the raw material and formulas where it is used are especially susceptible to corrosion.
Corroded equipment can affect the accurate formulation of products, the accuracy of shipping weights and costs, and can even pose a safety threat to individuals working with or near damaged equipment. Scales are an important part of the manufacturing process and are often used to automate various aspects of production such as mixing, batching, and filling.
Corrosion Resistant Accurate Weighing Scales
It all starts with a superior design and quality construction. Our line of corrosion resistant scales is constructed from rugged, welded stainless steel rather than sheet metal, which leaves other scales vulnerable to rust and corrosion. And while our competitors offer a protective platform coating, it’s generally just standard enamel paint that offers no protection once it is scratched or scraped off the platform.
Even if only a small chip is missing, corrosive agents can get underneath and migrate under the paint to other areas of the scale. This means you may not see the damage until it is too late. This also means that corrosive materials can get inside the actual scale and wreak havoc on its internal components.
Considering that the load cell is responsible for the accuracy of your measurements, you definitely want to work with a scale manufacturer that takes measures to prevent that. Many manufacturers use a basic aluminum construction when machining their load cells, but this leaves them vulnerable to damage from corrosive materials like chlorine as well as rough handling or the normal stresses of an industrial environment such as overloading and shock loading.
We manufacture our load cells in-house using stainless steel, which provides an additional layer of protection from corrosive agents while making the scale more accurate. To enhance the corrosion-resistant properties of our scales, we also offer a unique polyamine-based triple-epoxy coating that provides the additional protection enamel paint won’t.
Infused with garnet particles, this epoxy provides added resistance to scratching and abrasion as well as excellent chemical resistance. Our welded stainless-steel construction, heat-treated stainless steel load cells, and garnet infused triple epoxy work together to provide you with years of trouble-free service.
Capacities and Resolutions
While we offer a variety of scale sizes and platforms as a standard, don’t forget that we’re a factory-direct manufacturer, which means that if you can’t find a suitable product, we can work with you to understand your needs and create a solution that meets them. Standard capacities, resolutions, and platform sizes.
Accurate Weighing Scales Guard for Explosive Environments
If you work in an environment that handles chemicals that pose an explosion hazard when mixed with chlorine, your needs may be a little different. Not only will your scale need to come with added corrosion resistance, you’ll also need to make sure that there is no way for the scale to become a source of ignition.
Thank you for allowing Accurate Weighing Scales (U) Ltd the privilege to serve you in advance.
