April 3, 2017 —METTLER TOLEDO launched its fully-certified hygienic SWB805 MultiMount weigh modules. These weigh modules are designed according to European Hygienic Engineering & Design Group (EHEDG) guidelines and certified by National Sanitation Foundation (NSF).
As fully integrated weighing solutions, SWB805 MultiMount weigh modules reduce contamination risk and comply with hygienic standards while increasing processing efficiency in industrial settings. Protective bellows do not need to be opened for installation, which further reduces contamination risk. A mirror surface-polish also reduces opportunities for bacterial contamination, as does the fact that weigh modules are fully self-draining to avoid standing water. SWB805 MultiMount weigh modules are also versatile. They are offered in a wide range of capacities from 110 kilograms up to 4,400 kilograms, making them appropriate for a variety of applications.
Hardware is available in 304 or 316 stainless steel for durability, and stainless steel load cells are rated IP68/IP69k for ingress protection. OIML, NTEP, ATEX and FM approvals are all standard to ensure these modules meet stringent regulatory and processing requirements.
SWB805 MultiMount modules can be used with mixer tanks through addition of stabilization accessories that do not compromise the modules’ hygienic nature. Adding NSF-certified junction boxes and sealing accessories designed under EHEDG guidelines further facilitates installation and clean operations.
In short, SWB805 MultiMount weigh modules are a solution for sensitive applications in the food and pharma industries where durability, accuracy and cleanliness are of paramount importance.
