Build your scale any width with two scale bars

Scale-Bars use load cells to make weigh platforms of any lengthThe Scale Bar is the latest innovation in scale technology.  Two Scale Bars are located at the ends of a weigh platform that can be any length.  In addition, the Scale Bars themselves are telescopic, allowing the width of the platform to be tailored as well.  The internal load cells, identical in size, can be selected with many capacities.  The result is a system that allows a single set of components to be used in a family of scale platforms of many sizes and capacities.

Scale Bars are available with Auto Cal load cells; load cells are replaceable without need for recalibration. When used with our Auto Cal transmitters, scales can be recalibrated without need for test weights - anywhere in the world . . . . Read more

The Scale Bar’s load cell is fully overload protected to withstand years of abuse.  Use your own indicator, add one of our indicators or take one of our transmitters for direct computer or PLC connection.

Note:  Although the Scale Bar’s accuracy meets all legal requirements for 5000 divisions, this scale has not been NTEP or Canadian Weights and Measures approved.  If required, contact us regarding this subject.

For special applications, up to four Scale Bars can be connected to a single transmitter for use in dual-platform, single scale designs.

 

Auto-Cal load cells give you an edge

Auto Cal is a shunt-calibration system that, when used with suitable Auto Cal load cells can eliminate test weights after the initial calibration.  Shunt calibration is a method of using a resistance in parallel with one arm of the load cell bridge to simulate a known load.  Once the scale is calibrated, the resistance is switched in and the reading recorded, for use in subsequent accuracy checks and recalibration.  When load cells are manufactured to tight tolerances they can be interchanged without need for recalibration, contributing further to the Auto Cal system. Other Auto-Cal items are Mini-Mount load cell assemblies and Scale Transmitters.
