The Massload ML 100 is a single ended shear beam load cell used with this weigh module/mount in tank, hopper, and vessel weighing. The weigh module/mount is available for 5,000 lb (2,268 kg) and 10,000 lb (4,536 kg) load cell capacities. Fully made in Canada, designed for easy installation on 3- or 4-legged tank and hopper structures.
The Massload ML 100 is a single-beam compression load cell weigh module purpose-built for tank, hopper, and vessel weighing in rugged industrial environments. Fully manufactured in Canada, it is engineered to deliver high-accuracy, legal-for-trade weight measurement in applications where load is applied from above — such as bulk storage tanks, process hoppers, mixing vessels, and silo scales.
Installation is straightforward: the bottom of the assembly is bolted or welded to the foundation, and the top is bolted or welded directly to the tank or hopper leg. The free-floating foot incorporates a ball bearing that accommodates slight variances in the foundation, and the height of the load cell can be fine-tuned by adjusting the base nut, with a top jam nut to lock the foot in place — providing maximum flexibility for achieving the level critical to high accuracy weighing. Should the load cell ever need replacement, the simple design makes the process quick and easy.
Load cell signals from multiple modules can be summed through a summation junction box and wired to any weight indicator or control system. A 3- or 4-legged tank or hopper configuration is recommended for easiest levelling and best performance. The module is available in a custom powder-coated colour on request.
Most Common Applications: Tank scales, hopper scales, silo and bulk storage vessel weighing, process batching systems, mixing vessel weighing, agricultural grain bin scales, chemical storage tank monitoring.
