Description
The weigher is designed to provide
continuous weighing of grain and
other granulated materials.
On correct use and installation the
weigher is capable of an accuracy
in excess of +/- 1%. It may not,
however, be used as scales for the
purpose of selling by weight.
The weigher, type B 50, has a
capacity of up to appr. 27 tons of
barley per hour. The capacity de-
pends on the material to be
weighed.
The weighing hopper has a capaci-
ty of appr. 120 litres. From factory
the weigher has been adjusted to
weigh in batches of 50 kg. The
batches can be changed to 40 and
60 kg.
Net weight without accessories: 85
kg.
The weigher, type B 100, has a
capacity of up to appr. 40 tons of
barley per hour. The capacity de-
pends on the material to be
weighed.
The weighing hopper has a capaci-
ty of appr. 225 litres. From factory
the weigher has been adjusted to
weigh in batches of 100 kg. The
batches can be changed to 70 and
125 kg.
Net weight without accessories:
142 kg.
Installation
The weigher must be placed in a
level position and on a firm founda-
tion. The weigher must be accessi-
ble from all sides for inspection and
cleaning. Any possible protection
against dust must be detachable
and in no way impede the accurate
8
performance of the weigher. As the
beam moves 50 mm outside the
weigher frame the protection must
allow this movement.
Grain inlet
The weigher can weigh directly
from a silo with no restriction of the
flow. However, it must always be
possible to cut off the flow from the
silo, e. g. by means of a shutter.
The grain can be conveyed to the
weigher through a pipeline or an
inlet piece (accessories) or directly
to the inlet opening of the weigher.
If the weigher is fed by a conveyor,
space must be available between
the conveyor and the weigher for
„storing up" of materials while the
weigher is fine-weighing and on
test weighing. Use inlet hopper
(accessories).
Grain outlet
The weighed out material can fall
from the weigher directly into a silo
or via an outlet hopper (accesso-
ries) into a pipeline or conveyor. It
is important that the outlet capacity
is of at least the same size as the
inlet capacity.
Setting up of requi-
red batch weight
From the factory the weight content
of a batch has been adjusted to 50
kg (B 50) or 100 kg (B 100). If the
material is very light, it is possible
to reduce the batch weight to 40 kg
(B 50) or 70 kg (B 100) by remov-
ing one or more of the counter
weights (6). When weighing heavy
materials the batch weight can be
increased up to 60 kg (B 50) or 125
kg (B 100) by adding more counter
weights.
The weight of a batch is adjusted
in the following way:
Lock the discharge mechanism as
described in the section „test
weighing". Fill the weighing hopper
to the required weight, i. e. an ac-
curately preweighed quantity of
grain. The grain may either be filled
into the weigher and emptied in the
normal way, or it may be added in
several small bags which are re-
moved after the test. If iron weights
are used, position them on a plate.
Do not forget to include the weight
of the plate added.
When counter weights have been
added to the required batch weight,
adjust the fine-weighing by means
of the sliding weight (7) until the
balance pointer is at 0 on the scale.
Tœte: The finding must be main-
tained during the following weighing
process. Do not use the sliding
weight and counter weights for
adjustment of the batch during
weighing. Only use the adjusting
screw (5).
