High Capacity Weigh Modules
DESIGN FEATURES
The cylindrical double-ended shear beam module is designed to measure shear stresses induced by an applied load without errors caused by thermal expansion. The combination beam and mounting hardware are ideally suited for use on large outdoor storage vessels where temperature, wind, and possibly seismic forces are encountered. The cylindrical tube-type transducer offers several advantages over rectangular shear beam designs. Superior resistance to moisture contamination is accomplished by eliminating gaged pockets on the outside of the beam. Instead, the KDH uses strain gages applied to the inside wall of the tube. In addition, the cable entry is equipped with a conduit itting for cable protection and is internally potted. Structurally, the cylindrical tube is equally strong in both the vertical and horizontal planes. Unlike rectangular shear beams that are typically weaker in the horizontal plane, KDH modules are less affected by sideloads induced by vibration, wind, or process dynamics. The design of the mounting hardware eliminates the need for pins and/or bolts to attach the beam. This reduces the adverse effects of varying edge and point stresses and makes the overall module less susceptible to calibration changes. Low proile design, symmetrical mounting bolt patterns, and optional top plates make KDH modules easy to install on new or existing structures and vessels.

NOTE: Many performance speciications are proven on a statistical sample basis. BLH Nobel is continually seeking to improve product quality and performance. Speciications may change accordingly.
THERMAL INSULATION PADS
Thermal insulation pads reduce heat conducted from a heated vessel. The pads are made of rigid laminate with extremely low thermal conductivity. BLH Nobel recommends using insulation pads if the vessel mounting surface temperature exceeds 52°C (130°F). Pads are 1 in thick with bolt spacing identical to module top plates.
DUMMY BEAMS
Optional dummy beams are solid steel shafts with the same dimensions as the corresponding KDH-1 beam. Dummy beams are used in place of the KDH-1 beams during the installation process. Using dummy beams eliminates the risk of damaging precision KDH-1 beams while welding and/or positioning the weigh vessel.
