Lightning Destruction – Scale Unharmed

Lone Star Specialties was a victim of a powerful lightning strike in the night. “Power was off for more than two days, our computer server was a total loss and we lost our main phone line for over a month, but the scale made it through without any damage,” reported Office Manager Tony Thigpen. The company had to spend time and money getting their phone and network equipment replaced. However, their METTLER TOLEDO truck scale, located just outside the building, was working perfectly when power was restored.

Durable truck scales brave storms

Conventional weighing cells for truck scales are regularly damaged during storms. Yet the POWERCELL MTX load cell from METTLER TOLEDO is so reliable that not even a direct lightning strike can take it out of action.
