Ramsey™ Series 17 Belt Scale Systems

Catalog number: RAMSEYFLEXDIG-17
The Thermo Scientific™ Ramsey™ Series 17 Belt Scale System is a high-performance weighing solution for plants and processes operating at elevated speed or requiring enhanced accuracy. With a long weighbridge that permits more scale-borne time it delivers accuracy of +/-0.25% (four-idler version); the two-idler alternative offers +/-0.5%. The Ramsey Series 17 is an excellent choice for process management and control applications where the cost of poor accuracy is significant. Typical examples include production rate measurement, metallurgical accounting, and precision blending.
