It makes our job mega enjoyable when we get to work on cool projects like this! 
Installation of the overhauled totalizer went super smooth and we didn't even break a sweat!! We were working in a refrigerator... Each foot of this massive blender sits on top of a hydraulic load cell, literally suspended by hydrostatic fluid pressure. Each of these hydraulic load cells is plumbed into the totalizer where the forces are mechanically summated and transferred to the force transducer. This transfer of force from the piston in the load cell to the piston in the totalizer cell functions the same way the brakes do on your car. The force transducer is just a standard strain gauge load cell and it is wired into to a digital weight indicator for simple weight readings. The customer goes one step further with automation and they utilize the analog output of the weight indicator to send weight information to their Allen-Bradley PLC system that does all the controls for this blender. Several ingredients can be automatically be add by weight with this setup removing any possibility of operation error.
