- Load Cell
- Q11Does the high temperature of the installed area influence the weighing machine?
- A11There is no influence in a high temperature environment if a load cell with a heatproof specification is used,
but thermal drift may occur under extreme temperature variations.

- Q12Are wet places an issue for a load cell?
- A12There is no issue in very wet places if waterproof stainless steel load cells are used,
but if it is an ordinary product, measures have to be taken for the prevention of water.

- Q16Do I have to dig a pit for directly weighing a cart?
- A16You do not have to dig a pit if you adopt the ultra-low floor platform scale with a loading height of 35 mm, which allows direct pulling of a cart with an attached short slope.

- Q17May I water wash the floor scale in a pit?
- A17If drainage is not implemented it is not possible because water will remain in the pit.
If an ultra-low platform scale is adopted no water remains after water washing because the mounting is directly on the floor without a step between the 35 mm high loading height with an attached short slope.

- Q18I want to use an explosion-proof floor scale in an explosive atmosphere, but the scale is too tall.
- A18If you adopt an explosion-proof ultra-low platform scale, the low 35 mm loading height will allow the installation of a platform scale in an explosive atmosphere with height limits.
