QuickSilver Food-grade Platforms

Product catalog summary

Specifications:
The document outlines the specifications for Fairbanks Scales' QuickSilver platforms, which are designed for food, chemical, and pharmaceutical applications. The scales have capacities ranging from 2 to 1000 lbs and come in platform sizes from 10” x 10” to 24” x 24”. They are constructed from Type 304 stainless steel and have overload capacities of 300% to 500% depending on the model. The resolution is 5,000 divisions, and configurations include platform, platform with remote instrument, and platform with pillar and instrument. Approvals include NTEP CC# 94-100 5000d and FM approved load cells.

Sanitary Design:
QuickSilver scales are engineered to meet the American Meat Institute’s 10 Principles of Sanitary Design, ensuring they are cleanable to a microbiological level, made of compatible materials, and accessible for inspection and maintenance. The design prevents product or liquid collection and features hermetically sealed hollow areas, no niches, and sanitary operational performance. The scales are constructed from 304 Series stainless steel, which is common in food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and chemical facilities.

Load Cell Options:
The document describes different load cell options for various applications. Aluminum IP66/67 load cells are suitable for limited water exposure, stainless steel IP66/67 load cells offer protection against water ingress from splashing or spraying, and stainless steel IP68/69K load cells are designed for high-pressure, high-temperature washdown applications.

Performance Applications:
QuickSilver platforms are suitable for RTE washdown, gross/tare/net weighing, food processing, and manual batching/filling/blending. They are compatible with all Fairbanks Scales’ analog instruments and those from other manufacturers.

Design Features:
The scales feature superior traction with adjustable, hard rubber feet, and cover supports designed for food-grade environments. They have no pooling or collection points, with open corners and bases allowing water to flow out and away from the scale’s interior. The platform cover’s closed corners prevent material collection inside the scale.
