Weighing systems survive high-pressure hosing

A Sartorius Mechatronics product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Apr 15, 2005

Many new products from Sartorius already comply with the IP69K protection class.

Full compliance with hygiene specifications and optimum cleanliness are decisive success factors for manufacturers in the food, chemical and pharmaceutical industries.

The requirements placed on these products in respect of hygiene and cleanliness are high, and are growing constantly.

In this context, IP69K is of utmost importance.

Products featuring this international protection class can withstand even the most rigorous cleaning methods using high-pressure cleaning equipment, without any damage.

Many new products from Sartorius already comply with this exceptionally high international protection class, such as Combics scales and platforms as well as load cells.

These products feature outstanding measuring accuracy.

The PR6130/64S cable junction box is manufactured completely from high-grade stainless steel and can withstand water pressure of 80-100bar at a temperature of 80C.

Besides offering special design features, such as seal-welded components, the Sartorius cable junction has a smooth surface finish, eliminating inaccessible edges, corners and gaps.

This design rule out contamination.

In addition, the PR6130/64S cable junction box can be installed in category 2G, 3G and 1D explosive areas.

The Combics product series covers weighing capacities from 3 to 3000kg with display resolutions in steps from 3000 to 30,000.

Because of their high load capacity range of 150kg to 3t, the stainless steel platforms can even be used as floor scales.
