Preassembled Weigh Module/function of Aligning Plate
The weigh modules are delivered preassembled and centered with an Aligning Plate, for easy installation.
Figure 8
Figure 8 shows the preassembled weigh module 52-18RS-C with internally bumping rocking pin.
The lower 2 screws in the aligning plate are both conically recessed and thus these screws hold the plate in exact
aligned position in relation to the base plate. The upper 2 screws in turn hold the top plate in centered position
relative to the base plate.
One of the upper 2 holes in the aligning plate is vertically oblong with tight fit to the screw, while the other hole
has large clearance to the screw. This allows the top plate to adjust to the tank foot, in case the foot is not exactly
parallel to the foundation plate. The upper 2 screws are therefore just slightly torqued, in order to allow such
angular movement during installation.
Jacking Device
As an option a jacking device is available to lift the load carrier, in case a load cell needs to be replaced.
See figure 9.
The jacking device is secured to the base plate with 2 screws which fit the 2 holes earlier used for
the above described aligning plate. The device has alternative pairs of holes to be used with resp. without welding
or bolting plates.
Any other jacking device that fits between load carrier and foundation can, of course, also be used.
