When mixing and processing recipe formulations, chemical and petrochemical manufacturers use precise measurements of raw materials to create consistent, high-quality products. To achieve this, scales are paired with sophisticated weight indicators and recipe control software to measure chemicals and additives accurately.
Scales and weighing systems are used in the chemical and petrochemical industry to uphold quality, ensure precise inputs, maintain safety and record production output.
Controlling costs and maintaining operational effectiveness are essential for a mission-critical sector that uses high-value materials. So too is regulatory compliance and site-wide safety.
Chemical and petrochemical companies often pair scales with sophisticated software and indicators to create weighing systems capable of controlling, monitoring and recording production and output.
Equipment must be able to withstand potentially explosive chemical industry conditions and be IP rated for intense washdown procedures. Most of all, scales for the chemical and petrochemical industry need to ensure precise inputs, control cost and quality, produce precisely formulated products, as well as manage inbound and outbound logistics.
To accurately control inventory and operational processes, the chemical and petrochemical industry add load cells and indicators to storage tanks and vessels. This turns any storage vessel into a weight indicator, allowing operators to measure, manage, and record the weight of anything stored within the vessels.
Safety is critical in the chemical and petrochemical industry, which means scales and weighing systems must by intrinsically safe to prevent the risk of ignition or contamination. .
To prevent contamination and ignition, the chemical and petrochemical industry uses intense washdown procedures across all its equipment. IP rated scales are designed to withstand water and dusk ingress, making them ideal for areas that undergo heavy washdown, or for use in dusty environments.
