Belt scales

Milltronics MSI and MMI belt scales are now available for use on systems with flow rates of up to 12,000 t/h - an increase of 7000 t/h.

The MSI and MMI, combined with a Milltronics BW500 integrator and a speed sensor, now have approvals from the International Organisation of Legal Metrology (OIML) and Measuring Instruments Directive (MID), guaranteeing the MSI and MMI belt scales meet strict requirements for weights and measures applications in accuracy and repeatability.

The MSI, a heavy-duty single idler belt scale, is used for rugged applications in process and load-out control. MSI provides instant response to belt loading and overload protection to 300%. The MSI measures only the vertical load applied through the belt and the supporting suspended idler, and is sufficiently structurally sound that it can be applied to the most demanding applications. Drop-in installation also makes alignment easy and economical.

The MMI is a heavy-duty, high-accuracy, multi-idler belt scale consisting of two or more MSI scales. Used for critical process and load-out control, the two idler MMI-2 offers accuracy up to ±0.25%. For even greater accuracy, the MMI-3, a three idler belt scale, can be used on applications requiring accuracy to ±0.125%.

The MSI and MMI models can be installed without the use of cranes or other high-cost resources.
