Consisting of three different weigh module designs, the Paramounts system offers superior accuracy, even in applications with extreme expansion, contraction and vibration. The fixed-pin module acts as the vessel’s primary reference point, enabling rotation. A single sidestop module is then paired with the fixed-pin module to permit mechanical expansion and contraction in one direction. The vessel then becomes a high-accuracy weighing system with the addition of one to six free-sliding modules. This system offers the free motion necessary to eliminate unwanted mechanical side loads, as well as the strength needed to keep the vessel in check. This gives the Paramounts system its industry-leading reputation for exceptional accuracy in unfriendly environments.

Integral jacking/shipping bolts enhance safety by preventing accidental lift-off, facilitate quick field removal of load cells and eliminate load cell damage during transportation. Matched outputs and field-replaceable cable simplify installation and enhance serviceability.

As a system, Paramounts represent the ultimate combination of convenience, accuracy and control.
