Electronic scales in industrial environments are very sensitive to electrical disturbance as they measure very low-level signals. In addition, electronic scales in an open environment are at risk from lightning strikes and surge voltages. Especially truck and silo scales are very vulnerable to lightning strike effects. Therefore, lightning protection is necessary for these weighing systems.
The cost of weighing instruments damage caused by lightning strikes is much more than the protection system cost. Also, the product cost that doesn't get weighed should be added to the total cost.
Baykon LPK lightning protection unit, with an affordable cost, provides complete protection against all these effects and maximizes your uptime.
