Rice Lake QC Series Sanitary Floor Scales Designed For Sanitation & Washdown Applications
One of the challenges food processing plants face with industrial weighing equipment is sanitation. Food process plants must follow strict guidelines when it comes to sanitation, or the product may become contaminated by harmful bacteria. The scale industry has introduced scale equipment specifically designed to help keep food processing plants sanitary. Rice Lake Weighing Systems a world leader in scale manufacturing has introduced a few floor scales that Industrial Scale highly recommends for food processing facilities where sanitation is critical.
The Rice Lake Roughdeck QC and Roughdeck QC-X floor scales are built specifically with sanitation requirements in mind, made entirely from 304 food-grade stainless steel. The 304 stainless steel frame has continuous welds and solid plates, with no tubes or channels for bacteria to get into. The scale features a top plate that opens up for easy cleaning as well as four welded-seal IP69k load cells with PTFE cable providing excellent protection from steam cleaning and washdown areas. The scales junction box and washdown enclosure is remotely mounted from the scale providing further protection for the scales electrical components during the cleaning process. These scales can be installed above ground with an optional ramp or in a pit, a drain is highly recommended for pit installations. The 480 and 480 Plus Legend Series Digital indicator offers a bright LED display for operators to easily read weight readings.
