VC3500 with LA3500 LOAD CELL ASSEMBLY FOR SILO, TANK AND PROCESS VESSEL WEIGHING capacities 2t - 200t Vessel weighing problems solved simply and cost effectively. The VC3500 double shear beam load cell, with its robust LA3500 mounting assembly, is designed particularly for large silos and tanks and it incorporates a high resistance to lift-off. The VC3500 load cell is also available with optional ATEX or IECEx certification and can be supplied as a special version with high temperature capability (for operation up to 150°C continuously). The LA3500 mounting assembly’s mechanical characteristics have been designed and calculated according to Eurocode 3 (EN 1993) for peace of mind. Up to 75 tonnes capacity, the mounting assembly incorporates jacking bolts to simplify installation and any routine maintenance that may be desired. A version with EN 1090 certification (and CE marking**) can be quoted on special request at 30t, 50t, 75t and 100t capacities. End use industries include cement, food, beverage, minerals, chemicals, plastics, pharmaceutical, paint, biomass, offshore and others. ■ Stainless steel load cell, fully welded and hermetically sealed to IP68 and IP69K ■ High integral resistance to lift-off as standard ■ Resistant to off-axis loading ■ Low profile design ■ LA3500 mounting assembly designed according to Eurocode 3 (EN 1993) ■ Durable Polyurethane cable with high resistance to chemicals, UV radiation and cuts ■ 5 year warranty ■ Allows for vessel expansion and contraction ■ Robust LA3500 assembly is available with zinc plated, stainless steel, galvanized and other finishes ■ Optional ATEX or IECEx certification is available ■ Optional version with EN 1090 certification and CE marking** is available on request ■ Optional load cell output of 4-20mA on requ

installation & dimension details... THE CONCEPT ATEX and IECEx CERTIFICATION The VC3500 family of load cells is available in capacities from 2,000kg to 200,000kg. They are especially suitable for high capacity vessel weighing and feature a combined error specification of < ± 0.03%. The VC3500 load cell has a number of ATEX and IECEx certification options, several of which allow for use without safety barriers. This can result in significant cost savings; The critical sensor element is a fully welded double ended shear beam, manufactured from high tensile 17-4 PH stainless steel that is heat...
