Overview

The Flexweigh 103 Loss-in-Weight Controller is designed for applications where a preset target weight is
repeatedly dispensed from a tank or a hopper scale. The system maintains weight within high and low limits to
guarantee enough content for a complete dispense cycle. Press Start and the system automatically tares the scale,
begins the loss-in-weight dispense, and stops as programmed-all while transmitting and storing the accumulated
weight totals.
