Here’s why it’s important to have effective tank scales for your operations…

Imagine this: A massive tank filled with valuable products—perhaps chemicals, grains, or liquids.

Now imagine not knowing the exact weight of that tank.

What could go wrong?

Businesses without accurate scales have faced devastating consequences—like disposing of $300,000 worth of product due to inaccurate batches.

Inaccuracy leads to wasted resources, compromised product quality, and major financial losses.

This is where a quality tank scale can save your day, wallet, and sanity.

Tank scales are precision weighing systems designed to measure the weight of tanks and the various materials they can hold.

These systems give you accurate weight measurements, improve your operational efficiency, and maintain safety standards in handling your materials, so you can avoid setbacks.

This means you save a lot of time and money.

Tank Scales By Wingfield: How They Work

At Wingfield, our tank scales only use the best-quality load cells.

Why does using a quality load cell matter?

The accuracy of your tank scale starts with the load cell, which generates important weight data using special sensors.

it’s kind of like the heart of your weighing system.

A good-quality load cell means that every measurement is precise, consistent, and reliable.

Poor-quality load cells can compromise your entire tank system and pause business operations.

We strategically install high-end load cells on your tank and link them to a user-friendly digital touch display indicator that provides precise measurements in real-time.

In other words, these multi-functional modes give your tank scales everything they need to adapt to your specific operational needs (…even if they’re complex with many moving parts).

The functionality of our tank scales can save your business thousands of dollars.

Why?

Precise measurements will eliminate your material waste, reduce your operational downtime, and prevent costly overloading errors.

This means your processes run smoother, faster, and more efficiently—protecting your bottom line.

Plus, our indicators also have an IP65 washdown rating. What’s that?

It’s a standard that shows superior product durability (…even in challenging industrial environments where leaks may occur).

The Key Components of Wingfield Tank Scale Systems And Why They’re Unique:

  • Quality Load Cells: These sensors are the heart of the system. This matters because even the best tanks can’t provide reliable weight readings without accurate load cells. Without accurate readings, you waste time and money.
  • Durable Tank Mounts ensure stability by securely anchoring the tank and evenly distributing its weight. Proper weight distribution protects the tank and scale system from unnecessary strain. In other words, it prolongs their lifespan.
  • User-Friendly Digital Indicators: Our indicators display real-time weight data with an easy-to-use color touch screen. This is important because quick and easy data access gives you better decision-making and operational control.
  • Proper Wiring & Connectors: We properly install wiring to transmit signals between the load cells and your digital indicators, so you can have a seamless connection (…without a tangled mess).
