Hopper Scales

Many of our scales are used as hopper scales. The economic platform scales are giving way to special hopper scales which are more expensive. Solidity, wide weighing range and high accuracy are the main advantages of hopper scales.
Both hopper and weight functions help to improve their use in industrial sector. Some models of laboratory scales, accurate scales and tabletop scales also have this hopper function. On our website You will find the scales for your  needs depending on the accuracy, weighing range and verification.
Other series of scales are TS series package scales. These scales offer a lot of additional specifications and many of them are perfect for weighing mixtures (recipes).  If you can't find the hopper scale you are looking for, please contact us and we will help you find the best solution which suits your needs: +44 ( 0 ) 2380 98703 0. Our technical staff will advise you regarding our products. Our engineers and technicians will be happy to help you with the hopper scales, and of course, with the other products in the field of regulation and control, and measuring instruments.

The symbol for mixing (recipes) in the engineering data of hopper scales means that these scales can be used to mix and make recipes.Verification: To meet with the CE 90/384 CEE standard, all hopper scales must be verified when they are used for one of the following purposes (as we have just pointed out, verification can be carried out by the local authorized verification centre or by PCE Instruments company except for series II hopper scales, which have to be verified in situ)
  a) In trade relationships, when the price of the product is determined by its weight.
  b) To make medicines in pharmacy as well as detailed analysis in medical or pharmaceutical laboratories.  
  c) Official activities such as determining rates or sanctions.
  d) For packaging production.
If you require additional information about verification of platform scales, or if you are not sure whether you need a verified scale, you can contact your local authorized verification centre. Verification of hopper scales (only for selected models) can be done when scales are ordered or they can be sent for a periodical verification. Once an official verification is done, hopper scales cannot be recalibrated using an external calibration weight. The first verification is valid for two years, but every other verification is valid only for one year and must be done annually by the authorized verification centre.
If you have not found any hopper scale yet, please contact us and our engineers will be very pleased to help you assess our scales and balances that suit your needs.
