or square section legs Must have at least 1500

psi stress in leg Minimize temperature

changes for best accuracy

Ready-Mix plant application

Handles all the vessels in a single location Can gauge 2 or 4 legs depending on desired

accuracy – 2% accuracy with 4 legs, 5% with 2 legs. You can even add the missing legs later to increase the accuracy.

HOW IT’S DONE Choose the location on leg Grind surface until smooth Drill cover mounting holes Weld gauges to leg Test gauges and connect All gauges daisy-chained

from leg to leg and then from vessel to DAQ unit

BENEFITS OF THE SILOWEIGH.NET DATABASE

Most companies have computerized their business. Imagine a cement company with database of products, stock, customers and delivery trucks. They need to know where to send deliveries each day. By knowing the inventory in each vessel at each plant, the loop is closed and the scheduling system is complete.

The same applies to concrete companies and other industries who need to order materials

SiloWeigh.Net gives you the ability to do this, automatically, all the time.

OTHER APPLICATIONS Grain – corn,

wheat, rice etc. Animal feed mills Breweries Bakeries and food Plastics, chemicals Liquid tanks Mines, refining

Asphalt storage Instead of vertical

legs, use cross beams in interconnected frames (consult us)

Do not use for trade Do not use for

batching, bag filling or truck loading – not enough accuracy

OPPORTUNITIES Across the world, SiloWeigh.Net

has a unique niche in the market. It has the highest accuracy at a modest cost, along with unique browser display and Internet database. Every cement company and many other industries are planning to automate deliveries or ordering. Here is a perfect solution at the right time – take advantage and be one step ahead of your competition, like we are!
