PDX Load Cell Diagnostics
Predictive Diagnostics Help Identify Potential Problems

 

A Chemical company in Western New York recently purchased a METTLER TOLEDO VTS231 steel deck truck scale with PDXload cells. In their process, the Chemical Company stores a trailer on the scale. The trailer can remain on the scale for days at a time.  While the trailer was on the scale, they found that the scale was drifting.  The drift error was within Handbook 44 accepted tolerance but, they knew that the PDXload cells could provide a tighter tolerance.

 

The diagnostics built into the PDXload cells allowed Brady Systems to capture weight and temperature data for each load cell for a number of days.  From this data, we were able to tell that load cell number three was not at optimal performance.  The load cell was replaced and the Chemical Company now has the level of accuracy it needs.
