Important Weighing System Features to Consider for Hygienic Industries

There are several aspects that must be considered when it comes to compliance and safety in industrial processes. These aspects must also be applied to the equipment used, as in the case of weighing systems, which must comply with strict hygiene requirements.

Listed below are some of the most relevant weighing system features to consider.

Hygienic Construction Materials

Ensure that the weighing system is made of materials suitable for the hygienic environment with a surface roughness ≤ 0,5µ. They must be easy to clean and resistant to chemicals used for sanitation, such as detergents and disinfectants.

Hygienic Design

The weighing system must be designed with continuous welds free of protrusions, grooves or other cavities that can trap dust, dirt or bacteria. This simplifies cleaning and reduces the risk of cross-contamination.

IP Protection Level

Choose a weighing system with a high IP rating (IP68/IP69K) to protect it from dust, moisture and other contaminants, while ensuring it can be washed with high-pressure and high-temperature water jets.

Ease of Cleaning and Maintenance

The weighing system must be easy to disassemble, clean and reassemble without compromising its integrity of functionality.

Corrosion Resistance

In industries with stringent hygiene requirements, aggressive chemicals are frequently used for cleaning; make sure the weighing system is made of corrosion-resistant materials.
