Tank dispensing is based on the container’s contents - both inputted and outputted. This application utilizes a full load cell system to ensure equal distribution.

How It Works

• In this application, a silo is feeding grain into a dispensing container, while an output valve is releasing grain into the carrier truck below.
• To monitor the contents both inputted and outputted, the application engineer has installed a FUTEK LCF Series Load Cell atop the dispensing container.
• As grain is added or removed from the container, FUTEK’s LCF Series Load Cell will measure the distribution ratio of grain as it leaves the container.
• To ensure equal distribution of grain between carrier trucks, FUTEK’s SENSLOG Handheld Display is used to read the weight of grain in the container. If required, the IPM650 can be used to read the weight and send a signal to the output valve to release an equal quantity each time.
