The Survivor

®

1700HE Weigh Module

Kit is ideally suited for light to medium
capacity micro-ingredient batching and
mixing in a variety of hostile environ-
ments, especially where moisture is pres-
ent. The load cell is stainless steel and
hermetically sealed with an IP rating of
IP68 to provide superior corrosion, mois-
ture ingress, and mechanical protection.
The RLHBB and RLHTO load cells are
each waterproof guaranteed and OIML
C3 certified (20kg-5,000kg) to offer the
ultimate in durability and accuracy in any environment.
An important feature of the Survivor 1700HE is that the load may
be checked in one of two directions. This allows positioning in
one of two orientations for proper checking.
Integral jacking/shipping bolts offer a means to remove the load
from the load cell for quick removal and replacement of a load
cell and worry-free transport. The load introduction mechanism
also isolates the load cell from side loads, overloads, and underloads. For reliability
and accuracy, the Survivor 1700HE is the perfect mounting assembly for light capac-
ity weighing.
The 1700HE modules are available from 5-250kg (11-550lb) capacities using
RLHBB cantilever beam load cells. In capacities from 500-5,000kg (1,100-11,000lb),
the units use RLHTO single-ended shear-beam load cells.
The installation should be planned by a qualified structural engineer. Each installation
is unique, and this manual is meant to serve only as a general guideline for installa-
tion.
