Mesurex produced a silo compression weighing system (model <em>FO50T-SILO<\/em>). This complete system comprises <strong>3 load cells, 50t each<\/strong>, with a working load limit of 150% and a breaking load of 300% (IP68, \u00d8164mm), each connected via <strong>10-meter cable<\/strong> to a <strong>junction box<\/strong>. The junction box can be used not only to read values, but also to connect hardware to retrieve, store and\/or print time-stamped data. Analog output is available (0-20mA, 4-20mA, 0-5V, -10V...) to connect additional accessories (alarm, shut-off valve, safety device...).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Do you also have problems weighing heavy loads?
