Weighing Tanks
What are Tank Weighing Systems?
Tank weighing systems are precision-engineered solutions used to monitor the contents of liquid, solid, or gas storage tanks based on weight. Unlike traditional level-based methods, these systems use load cells placed under or around the tank for accurate, real-time inventory control, regardless of tank shape, material, or contents.
At SCALESTECH, we provide complete tank weighing and telemetry-enabled systems designed to serve Kenya’s agricultural, dairy, fuel, and chemical industries. Our solutions support both indoor and outdoor tanks, from small milk containers to large grain silos.
