Silo and Tank Weight Silos and vessels

Never run out of product again. Eliminate the risk of overfilling storage vessels. SiloWeigh tells you the contents of any silo, tank or vessel – not as an empty or full signal, or even a percentage full signal based on a level measurement. Better than silo level measurement, SiloWeigh measures the actual weight of the vessel and contents to give a true picture of the amount on hand – and it costs little more than a silo level sensor.

All three sensors use high quality metal foil strain gauges, as used in high-accuracy load cells, to give superior stability and accuracy. SiloWeigh is temperature compensated by matching the sensors to the metal of the legs. We have demonstrated typical accuracies of ±1 to 2% of full scale when all four legs are gauged. It is possible to gauge only half the legs but we do not recommend it since wide variations in accuracy are possible.

All-weather. Sensors, wiring and junction boxes are carefully weatherproofed and you can set up the dust and spashproof display system in a convenient indoor location.

Whether you need a silo level meter, a tank level monitor or silo inventory control, SiloWeigh is the most accurate system.

Features

  • Shows both level as a graphical display and actual weight as digital display
  • Monitor deliveries to verify correct weight is being received
  • Monitor usage to compare with production totals for each day
  • Set alarm levels for reordering and emergency low level, light alarm lamps etc.

Benefits

  • Easy to see at a glance and also gives true weight in vessel, not just a level
  • Detect short shipping fraud by delivery company
  • Detect errors in amounts used, unauthorized usage or additions to production to make up for other errors
  • Allow timely reordering and give positive warning when production is likely to be stopped – prevents unscheduled shutdowns due to shortages
