Fill by weight, but with no weighing
15 Jan 2000
Based on a mass flowmeter to fill by the kilo, a Permex `fill by weight without weighing' system is the first of its kind in the UK to be approved by the National Weights and Measures Laboratory (NWML).
The system was developed by Permex and Fisher-Rosemount, the manufacturer of the Micro Motion Coriolis mass flowmeter at the heart of the filling machine. NWML carried out a series of checks on the design and performance of the Permex machine before issuing the certificate.
Accuracy is normally better than volumetric systems as the system is inherently temperature compensated.
