Fertilizer eats mild steel scales, it makes our Stainless Steel scale SHINY”!

For Clarification:
A few
scale dealers do not understand that our scale has been certified as a complete weighing system for the requirements mentioned above. Perhaps because some companies attempted to put stands under the corners of a hopper, hook up load cells and an indicator and say it is NTEP Certified. It is not! Some simply don’t want to give up the service revenue generated by mechanical scales. Several years ago when TN became an NTEP state, we were not happy about having to go through the rigorous National Type Evaluation Program (NTEP) conducted by the National Conference on Weights and Measures (NCWM) but we did and now we’re happy we did.

Important note: Every component, particularly the frame, was subjected to rigorous and expensive testing procedures before the scales were NTEP certified. At the time, we were not thrilled about it, but now we have the only NTEP certified fully electronic Stainless Steel scale (that we know about) that is legal for trade with fertilizer blenders/tanks/weigh hoppers. We are using some design elements (trade secrets) that are unique to our scale. References from major fertilizer vendors and independents are available on request. Our customers are our best salespeople.

The stainless steel frame is shipped pre-wired with all components installed and custom fitted to match the fittings on your vertical blender or weigh-hopper. Typical installation takes 2- 4 hours. NTEP certified for up to 12 tons.

Length, width, height, size of plates, hole pattern on plates or legs for Kraus are adjusted to match your blender or hopper.
