Many aspects of tank scale design and installation can affect the accuracy of weight measurements, for example, whether legs are solidly supported or if there is any mechanical interference in the form of piping or mixing equipment. Additionally, unlevel flooring designed to avoid pooling water, disinfectant, cleaners, or even product can lead to inaccurate measurements without proper shimming.
For this, METTLER TOLEDO offers LoadAdvisor™ with the IND360 weight indicator. In combination with PowerMount™ weigh modules, this feature guides users through a step-by-step process for setting up the tank weighing system, including basic settings, mapping the on-screen weigh module positions, shimming, and physical adjustment.
