Cylinder or tank scales may be designed much like platform scales. In the case of water and wastewater treatment plants, many of the measurements will be of liquids. The weight of the cylinder is always subtracted from the total weight to provide an accurate measurement of only the liquid that is being weighed.
Many different chemicals are used in the treatment of water and wastewater. Some of the chemicals used are very harsh chemicals. The platforms of cylinder scales should be reinforced just in case the chemicals to be measured leak from the cylinder. This type of accident could prove to be disastrous. Many of the platforms are made of stainless steel and are corrosion resistant to better withstand the harsh environments in which they will be used. An accident with this type of scale could affect a whole community. Therefore, it is important to ensure that this type of scale is of the highest quality.
Because of the dangerous nature of some of the chemicals involved, it might be advisable for users of this type of scale to be able to monitor the readouts from a distance. Therefore, this type of scale should include a separate digital readout device so that the user can access the output from this scale, without having to be near the scale to read the output. An added benefit from the remote digital device is that many of these types of devices include additional functions that may not be available on the regular scale.
Digital cylinder scales for water and wastewater plants will be used in extremely harsh environments. Because of this fact, these types of scales must be constructed from the highest quality materials and craftsmanship. These types of scales may function much like a platform scale.
