Weigh Feeders

Weight-Loss Differential Weigh Feeders (Models 402/404 and 405 & 406)

Overview

The Models 402 and 404 Series, and the Models 405 and 406 ‘Weight-Loss-Differential’ Weigh Feeders feature a ‘Platform’ type weighing system specifically designed by Acrison for continuous or batch weighing of dry solids or liquids on a ‘weight-loss ’basis. The weighing systems of these particular model feeders incorporate technologically advanced, innovative lever mechanisms (scales) utilizing Acrison designed and manufactured stainless steel flexures for all pivotal connections. Frictionless in operation, these advanced weighing systems are extremely stable, rugged, and counterbalanced so that only the net weight of material in the metering mechanisms (and in their supply hoppers or tanks) is accurately weighed. Acrison’s various control systems encompass the latest technologies and algorithms to ensure optimum levels of performance.

Features/Benefits
Metering Accuracy - is typically +/- 0.25 to 1% or better (error) at two sigma based on a given number of consecutive one minute weighments
Versatile - wide range of metering mechanisms are available providing an overall output capacity ranging from a fraction of a pound to thousands of pounds per hour
Unique Ratiometric Digital Weight Resolver - is extremely precise, calibration and adjustment-free, and cannot be damaged by any amount of shock or overload the weighing system may experience
Weighing Mechanism - extremely stable, ruggedly constructed, and permanently calibrated; longevity is unsurpassed
All Steel Construction - provides long-term reliability with minimal maintenance requirements
