Additional Info

The ATEX GLP is a below ground pit mounted stainless steel scale that is designed and manufactured in Leicester by MWS, its main feature is a gas strut assisted top deck making routine cleansing in high risk areas easier and safer loading by operators due to being flush with the existing floor structure.

The ATEX GLP scale is rated to Zone 1/21 and Zone 2/22. The units are supplied with Flintec ATEX / IECEx rated load cells, a stainless steel Intrinsically safe Junction box and Intrinsically safe cable. This model can be supplied with a range of our ATEX weight indicators or load cell amplifiers via Zener Barriers

Construction:

The ATEX GLP range is manufactured using 304 grade stainless steel (316L available upon request) box section and high end welding techniques the ATEX GLP is free from hidden crevices and holes that allow moisture to build up harbouring bacteria and parasites. The gas-assisted plate is hinged on one side and is safely operated by a single user. Fitted with IP68 load cells and junction box as standard guarantying that the ATEX GLP is a truly waterproof floor scale even washed down with a high pressure – high temperature jet wash.

Finish:

A glass bead blast top and bottom is used to finish which gives an acceptable hygiene level for a majority of applications, however upon request a grained or electro polish finish can requested to improve the surface finish further.

Options:

The GLP can be specified for use in areas where forklift trucks operate, extra steel is incorporated to strengthen the platform further and higher capacity load cells used to prevent damage caused by overloading.

Built to suit:

With any platform designed and manufactured by MWS there are a number of options and sizes available as standard, however a USP and key benefit of choosing MWS as a supplier is the ability to manufacture one-offs and systems to suit exact client specifications, these can include options such as unique platform sizes and pit mounting kits that enable the GLP to be installed in pre-existing holes from previous installations, this can eradicate costly civil engineering work and probable production down time on factory floors while works are carried out.
