The silo scale is an advanced instrument designed for level control and load management in silos and industrial containers. With a 500 x 600 mm platform and a capacity of up to 60 kg, it offers stability and precision in weighing. Equipped with 3 OC outputs, a switch, and a bidirectional RS-232/RS-485 interface, it supports continuous measurements. The free load limit setting allows for customized level management. It also includes an optional 4-20 mA or 0-10 V analog output. Additional features include visual and acoustic signaling for anomalies and an optional display. Accessories such as a GSM modem for SMS notifications and LAN/RJ-485 interfaces are available for remote monitoring.
Please consider the dead weight of the container to be monitored when selecting the measuring range. Filling quantity + container weight = measuring range. Zeroing the container weight does not increase the measurement range.

The silo scale represents an advanced solution for level control and load management in complex industrial environments. This highly specialized instrument is designed to ensure precision and efficiency in the weighing and monitoring of materials within silos and containers of various sizes. With a capacity of up to 60 kg and a 500 x 600 mm platform, the scale provides a robust and stable base, ideal for large containers.
The scale is equipped with 3 OC outputs to manage different operating conditions: one for OK status, one for critical level status, one for discharge errors, and one for interruptions. These outputs allow for flexible and timely management of filling and emptying, with the option to connect visual and acoustic signals such as optical indicators and traffic lights. Specifically, a green traffic light can indicate that the material level is in order, while a yellow or red traffic light will alert the operator when it's necessary to refill the container.
The included bidirectional RS-232/RS-485 interface facilitates integration with external management and monitoring systems, optimizing the collection and analysis of data in real-time. This is crucial for process control and synchronization, enabling accurate and continuous monitoring.
Additionally, the scale offers an optional 4-20 mA or 0-10 V analog output, allowing the connection of additional sensors and recording systems. This feature is particularly useful for applications requiring detailed and in-depth weighing data analysis, ensuring continuous and precise monitoring.
One of the main features of the scale is the continuous weight decrease control function. This function allows real-time monitoring of the filling process, detecting any defects in material flow and alerting the operator in case of anomalies. Weight decrease can be configured to display in various units such as g/min, kg/min, g/hour, or kg/hour. If the material discharge process shows errors, the scale will trigger acoustic and visual signals or, if necessary, stop the machine to prevent empty running, reducing downtime and optimizing operations.
For added versatility, the scale can be installed on a control panel, and optional accessories such as a GSM modem for SMS notifications and LAN/RJ-485 interfaces for remote monitoring are available. These accessories extend the system’s capabilities, enabling effective communication and control even from a distance.
Suitable for a wide range of industrial applications, the silo scale is designed to offer accurate and customized material management. Its precision, reliability, and flexibility make it an essential component for ensuring the efficiency and safety of production processes, addressing the needs for monitoring and optimization in complex industrial environments.
