The weighing of hoppers, silos and tanks is carried out increasingly often by a "volumetric" equipment check.

The hopper content is displayed directly in tonnes or kilograms; the load cells do not come into contact with the product - there is no problem with measurement errors caused by angles of repose, bridging or flue construction in silos.

In the last 10 years the cost of investing in load cells has reduced by more than 50%. At the same time precision of measurement has risen - because of the ease of mounting of the integral module the installation of load cells is no more complicated than installing a gauge connection for a level detector.

Hense Wägetechnik offers you optimised load modules for silos, agitators and tanks.
Our modules are attractive because of their low total height, simple installation, high precision and reliability.

Now you can even refit existing silos cost-effectively with a reliable weighing system.... in the "Retrofit Weight Sensors" section you will find further information and examples of applications.

Advantages of the system:
- Reduced planning expenditure because the load cells can be simply integrated into the construction
- High long-term and operating safety (guaranteed for 5 years)
- Very cost effective
