This is another example of our customers selecting our low height 12′ wide 50,000 BPH scale which has a lower height than competitive 40,000 BPH systems while delivering close to 60,000 BPH throughput.

The customer upgraded our standard scale system by specifying:

  • 1′ of additional upper garner providing
  • ¼” Expanded Metal Backed Urethane all 3 Hoppers
  • Lower garner gate with position control
  • 4-sided third tier platform at top of scale
  • 12′ x 12′ x 44′ Support Structure for placement next to rail, including certified engineering drawings. Structure shipped as one integral unit to reduce installation.
  • Telescoping-spout with hydraulic winch at rail envelope. 1/4″ Urethane lining at impact and telescoping section with 24″ stroke at railcar. Spout powered from scale hydraulic unit.
  • Empty level sensor on Lower Garner to be able to use our SmartLoad system that ensures that the scale continues to run while a new car is positioned under the spout,

The scale is controlled by the state of the art GMS-4000 controller including:

  • SmartTech that automatically monitors the scale for correct operation
  • SmartLoad that ensures that the scale continues to run while a new car is positioned under the spout, and
  • SmartRead that automatically reads the rail cars and calculates the optimum amount to load into each car.
