1. Brief Module Description
The Type 52-28 Weigh Module is especially designed for type SB8 and SB6 load cells. It is a weigh module with
integrated check link and lift-off protection, which perfectly suits hopper and tank weighing applications. An
adjustable overload protection and an integrated jacking device complete the technical features.
Type 52-28 prevents unwanted forces from affecting the load cell performance and it eliminates oscillations
caused by slow moving agitators. In a scale you can apply modules with check link and without check link (see
chapter 5: Check Link Orientation).
Standard module:
•
Steel, zinc plated (S355JR, material no. 1.0045), with or without check link
Optional version:
•
Stainless steel (material no.1.4301), with or without check link
Type 52-28 is very easy to install. If delivered with new load cells the module will be shipped completely pre-
assembled and ready for installation. M8 mounting screws and washers for connecting the module with a
foundation plate or the load carrier are part of the standard delivery.
The connection between module and foundation/load carrier can be done by screwing or welding. Welding
instead of bolting is a practical alternative eliminating problems of getting holes on top and bottom lined up. The
combination of welding and bolting is also possible. A suitable welding plate is an available acccessory.
2. Pre-assembled Weigh Module
If delivered with new load cells the module will be shipped completely pre-assembled and ready for installation.
The integrated jacking device (2x M12 nut) is used as a transport lock for the upper load plate.
