Floor Scale Safety: To Reduce Injury Risk in the Chemical Industry and Beyond 1

The human and economic costs of accidents can be significant, so the prevention of lost time incidents has become a key performance indicator in the chemical and other industries.  When it comes to weighing equipment, proper installation and maintenance, operator training and SOPs are important safety aspects.

This white paper, from our supplier, Mettler Toledo, focuses on floor scales and the safety risks associated with them.  It covers the various types of floor scale installations and discusses the safety features of each.

Cross partners with our customers to create the safest work environment possible.  Whether you need a pit mounted scale or a scale with a liftable load plate, talk to the measurement experts at Cross to get the safest solution for your application.
