Tank Weighing Systems
Customised load-cell weighing systems for tanks, hoppers, and vessels — mounted above or below the vessel, from 100 kg to 100 MT, for liquids, solids, semi-solids, and gases.
Capacity: 100 kg to 100 MT (configured to the vessel)
Customised tank weighing systems
Caliber Scales designs and manufactures customised tank, hopper, and vessel weighing systems that provide accurate weighing information for material held in a vessel — without moving it to a separate scale. Load cells are mounted above or below the vessel and integrated with your process, so you can weigh in place during filling, dosing, mixing, or discharge.
Capacities range from as low as 100 kg to as high as 100 MT, and the system can be retrofitted to existing vessels or engineered into new installations.
What it can weigh
Tank weighing systems handle liquids, solids, semi-solids, and gaseous material, across a wide range of processes:
- Inline weighing systems
- Mixing, kneading, blending, and dissolving tanks
- Heating and cooling (thermal) tanks
Why choose a Caliber tank weighing system
- Weigh in place — no separate weighing step or material transfer
- Fits tight spaces — flexible mounting for constrained installations
- Process-ready — integrates with batching and process control
- Retrofit or new — adapts to existing vessels or new builds
- Custom-engineered to your vessel, material, and environment
Applications
Tank weighing is widely used in chemical and process industries, food and pharma batching, and bulk storage in silos, hoppers, and tanks. For container and drum weighing alongside your vessels, see platform scales, or request a quote for a system designed around your process.

Frequently asked questions
What is a tank weighing system?
A tank weighing system uses load cells mounted above or below a tank, hopper, or vessel to measure its contents in place. The reading feeds an indicator or process-control system, removing the need to move material to a separate scale.
What capacity can a tank weighing system handle?
Caliber tank weighing systems range from as low as 100 kg to as high as 100 MT, configured to the vessel and the material being weighed.
Can it be retrofitted to an existing tank?
Yes. Our systems can be retrofitted to existing tanks, hoppers, and vessels, or engineered into new installations — and they work in inline, mixing, kneading, blending, dissolving, and heating/cooling applications.
