Installing an industrial floor scale requires some technical knowledge and expertise. Here are the general steps involved in installing an industrial floor scale:

1. Choose the location: Determine the ideal location for the floor scale, based on factors like the size of the items to be weighed, the traffic flow in the area, and the availability of power and data connections.

2. Prepare the foundation: The floor must be level and stable, with a solid, smooth surface to support the scale. The foundation should be free of cracks, bumps, or other irregularities that could affect the accuracy of the measurements. In some cases, you may dig a pit for floor scale installation that is completely flush with the floor.

3. Position the platform: Lift the floor platform to the proposed installation place and put it down slowly. Verify that every corner firmly touches the ground. If this is not the case, lift the floor platform and insert shims to level or adjust foot height if the level bubble is not in the center or any foot does not touch the ground fully. 

4. Calibrate the scale: Depending on the scale type, it must be either adjusted or calibrated to ensure accurate readings. This may involve adjusting the load cells or making other fine-tuning adjustments.

5. Test the scale: Finally, the scale should be tested to ensure that it is operating properly and providing accurate readings. This may involve weighing various items of known weight to verify the accuracy of the measurements.

It's important to note that installation procedures may vary depending on the specific type and model of industrial floor scale you are working with, so it's always best to follow the Installation Manual and recommendations. Additionally, installation of an industrial floor scale is best completed by trained professionals with experience in the field.

Our industrial floor scales are all designed to last in harsh industrial environments, but for regulated environments, look for our hygienically designed industrial floor scales. Floor scales with open designs, ingress protection, and stainless steel construction simplify the floor scale cleaning process to save you time and help to eliminate contamination risk.

METTLER TOLEDO’s floor scales designed for use in pharmaceutical environments have been certified by an independent testing institute with regard to GMP guidelines and current practices in cleaning validation.

Yes, METTLER TOLEDO has a wide range of scales designed for use in hygienic applications. Many of our stainless-steel scales exceed normal requirements for even the most intensive hygienic cleaning processes. 

METTLER TOLEDO’s floor scale portfolio offers precision levels up to 30,000e legal-for-trade or up to 750,000d process resolution. The degree of accuracy depends on several factors, including the specific type of scale, its capacity, and its calibration. Most modern digital floor scales can provide measurements with a precision of at least 0.1% of the maximum weight capacity of the scale. For example, a 10,000-pound floor scale should be able to provide readings with a resolution of 10 pounds or less.

However, accuracy can be affected by factors such as temperature, humidity, and vibration. Changes in these conditions can cause the scale's components to expand or contract, which can result in measurement errors.

To ensure accuracy, floor scales should be calibrated regularly. The frequency of calibration depends on factors such as the scale's usage patterns, the environment in which it is used, and the accuracy requirements of the application. Regular calibration can help to minimize errors and ensure that the scale provides accurate readings over time.

In summary, floor scales can be very accurate, but the level of accuracy will depend on various factors and should be carefully monitored and maintained through regular calibration.

Yes, you can find METTLER TOLEDO floor scales suitable for dusty or harsh environments by filtering for IP65 protection or higher within the Environment filter options. Many of our stainless-steel floor scale models are built to withstand challenging environments, harsh cleaning agents, or regular washdown. Different stainless-steel options and surface finishes like grinded or e-polished can be selected when working with chemicals or harsh detergents.

Floor scales can be installed with in-ground pit installations, permanent above-ground installations or as completely mobile units for use on hard, flat surfaces throughout your production area. It is recommended that your floor scale is placed on completely even, un-slanted ground so that the loads can be placed in the center with equal weight distribution across the load cells to ensure an accurate measurement.

Yes, our floor scales can weigh these pallet sizes and all have NTEP and OIML approval for legal-for-trade weighing. You can customize most floor scales to meet the size and capacity requirements of your operation.

Industrial floor scales are designed to withstand harsh environments and heavy use, so they are typically made from durable and robust materials such as:

• Steel: Steel is a popular choice for industrial floor scales because of its strength and durability. It is resistant to bending, warping, and corrosion, making it ideal for use in tough industrial environments.

• Stainless steel: Stainless steel is another popular material for industrial floor scales. It is resistant to corrosion, staining, and rust, making it ideal for use in wet or damp environments where rust or corrosion could be a concern.

• Aluminum: Aluminum is a lightweight material that is often used to make portable floor scales. It is also resistant to corrosion and is often used in food or pharmaceutical industries where cleanliness and hygiene are a top priority. 

• Concrete: In some cases, industrial floor scales may be embedded in concrete for additional stability and durability.

Overall, the materials used to make industrial floor scales are chosen for their strength, durability, and resistance to corrosion and other forms of damage. By using high-quality materials, industrial floor scales can withstand heavy use and harsh environments while providing accurate and reliable weight measurements.

Floor scales are large, flat platforms that are designed to weigh heavy objects or materials. They are typically used in industrial weighing applications where accurate measurements of weight are required.Floor scales are available in a wide range of sizes, capacities, and materials to suit different applications. They may be used to weigh items such as pallets, barrels, or large machinery components. Some floor scales are portable, while others may be permanently installed in a warehouse or manufacturing facility.
