The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable
LeverMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell and mount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for process weighing and materials storage applications

Unique patented and cost effectivesolution for process weighing applications
capacities 10kg to 5000kg
Purpose designed stainless load cell and mount arrangement
High stability three point mounting
Easily configurable for radial or tangential mounting
Allows for vessel expansion and contraction
LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without jacking
Straightforward low cost installation without specialist tooling
Substantial lift off prevention
Tolerant of steel work misalignment
Load cell removal without jacking or dummies
Stainless steel OIML C3 approved load cell fully welded sealed to IP68
LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable
LeverMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell and mount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for process weighing and materials storage applications

MasterMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side Sensors Ltd
Thames Sidersquos MasterMountreg is the latest in a range of unique patented load cell and mountcombinations which include the LeverMountreg and LeverMount Litereg and extends the range ofcapacities up to 30 tonnes
The MasterMountreg hasprimarily been designed for easysafe simple installation andremoval of the load cell withoutthe aid of specialist tools jacksor other equipment
The special design also avoidsthe need to use dummy cellswhilst any welding or other workis being undertaken on thevessel The high specificationdouble ended stainless steelshear beam load cellincorporated in theMasterMountreg is the samemodel used in Thames Sidersquos popular VC3500 lsquotraditionalrsquomount arrangement The loadcell can also be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as Ex nA II T6 gas only certification which allows Zone 2 use without safety barriers
High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable Although the standard load cell is manufactured from stainless steel and sealed to IP68 special parylene coating of the load cell is available as an option to provide additional protection in extreme environments where stress corrosion could occur
A patented lever and cam mechanism enables the top plate of the loading assembly to be raised and lowered with a 180 degree turn which can be accomplished easily with just an M30 socket spanner and T-bar The stainless steel load cell is retained within the assembly by simple captivated pins thus avoiding the use of fiddly retaining clips Lift off protection is provided through the mount itself rather than the traditional design of under or through the load cell which protects the load cell from reverse shock loading The Mastermountreg assembly is manufactured from high strength cast steel and is protected by a durable and hard wearing corrosion resistant paint finish
Once the MasterMountreg loading assembly has been fitted under the vessel installation and removalof the load cell can be accomplished in minutes resulting in large savings in installation costs
The MasterMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell andmount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for ProcessWeighing and Materials Storage applications
Our Technical Department is happy to provide free technical and applications advice as well as help with optimum load cell selection

Stainless steel OIML C3 approved load cell fully welded sealed to IP68
LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable
LeverMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell and mount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for process weighing and materials storage applications

Series VC3500The VC3500 family of load cells are available in capacities
ranging from 2000kg to 200000kg They are especially suitable
The critical sensor element of the VC3500 unit is a fully welded
double ended shear beam manufactured from high tensile
17-4 PH released stainless steel heat treated to give a high
ultimate tensile strength This treatment provides an extremely
stable platform for the strain gauges In common with all
Thames Side load cells the strain gauged element is
temperature compensated to ensure accuracy is maintained
through a wide temperature range
Stainless steel diaphragms are TIG welded in position to provide
total environmental sealing This method of construction allows
Thames Side to offer a five year warranty on the complete unit
Vessel Restraints
The galvanised loading assembly is an integral part of the VC3500 and
eliminates the mandatory requirement for vessel restraints or check rods

Due to the unique design of the VC3500 Transverse and
Non Axial misalignment errors are minimised
VC3500 Capacities 2 - 200 te
The unit is manufactured in 5 shell sizes as follows
Shell size 1 2 - 20 te
Shell size 2 30 - 50 te
Shell size 3 75 te
Shell size 4 100 te
Shell size 5 150 - 200 te
The loading assembly is alloy and galvauised to provide the highest level of protection for offshore applications Stainless Steel is available as an option
The bi-directional freedom of movement of the top plate allows for a
high degree of mis-alignment in the structure particularly important
in large structures where dimensional accuracy rigidity and angular
conformity cannot be guaranteed or where large changes in
ambient temperature are anticipated The complete assembly
incorporates built in lift off protection reducing the need for
additional restraints Integrated jacking bolts facilitate routine
maintenance and calibration This eliminates the need for expensive
installation work giving a very cost effective total solution

The VC3500 family of load cells are available in capacities ranging from 2000kg to 200000kg They are especially suitable for high capacity vessel weighing and feature a combined error specification of lt plusmn 003
The critical sensor element of the VC3500 unit is a fully welded double ended shear beam manufactured from high tensile 17-4 PH released stainless steel heat treated to give a high ultimate tensile strength This treatment provides an extremely stable platform for the strain guages In common with all Thames Side load cells the strain gauged element is temperature compensated to ensure accuracy is maintained through a wide temperature range
Stainless steel diaphragms are TIG welded in position to provide total environmental sealing This method of construction allows Thames Side to offer a five year warranty on the complete unit
Vessel Restraints The loading assembly is an integral part of the VC3500 and in many cases can eliminate the requirement for vessel restraints or check rods
Atex Certification The VC3500 has ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as Ex nA II T6 gas only certification which allows zone 2 use without safety barriers

Stainless steel OIML C3 approved load cell fully welded sealed to IP68
LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable

LeverMountreg
Unique patented and cost effectivesolution for process weighing applications
capacities 10kg to 5000kg
Purpose designed stainless load cell and mount arrangement
High stability three point mounting
Easily configurable for radial or tangential mounting
Allows for vessel expansion and contraction
LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without jacking
Straightforward low cost installation without specialist tooling
Substantial lift off prevention
Tolerant of steel work misalignment
Load cell removal without jacking or dummies
Stainless steel OIML C3 approved load cell fully welded sealed to IP68
LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly

Stainless steel OIML C3 approved load cell fully welded sealed to IP68
LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable
LeverMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell and mount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for process weighing and materials storage applications

Series VC3500The VC3500 family of load cells are available in capacities
ranging from 2000kg to 200000kg They are especially suitable
The critical sensor element of the VC3500 unit is a fully welded
double ended shear beam manufactured from high tensile
17-4 PH released stainless steel heat treated to give a high
ultimate tensile strength This treatment provides an extremely
stable platform for the strain gauges In common with all
Thames Side load cells the strain gauged element is
temperature compensated to ensure accuracy is maintained
through a wide temperature range
Stainless steel diaphragms are TIG welded in position to provide
total environmental sealing This method of construction allows
Thames Side to offer a five year warranty on the complete unit
Vessel Restraints
The galvanised loading assembly is an integral part of the VC3500 and
eliminates the mandatory requirement for vessel restraints or check rods

Shell size 5 150 - 200 te
The loading assembly is alloy and galvauised to provide the highest level of protection for offshore applications Stainless Steel is available as an option
The bi-directional freedom of movement of the top plate allows for a
high degree of mis-alignment in the structure particularly important
in large structures where dimensional accuracy rigidity and angular
conformity cannot be guaranteed or where large changes in
ambient temperature are anticipated The complete assembly
incorporates built in lift off protection reducing the need for
additional restraints Integrated jacking bolts facilitate routine
maintenance and calibration This eliminates the need for expensive

The VC3500 family of load cells are available in capacities ranging from 2000kg to 200000kg They are especially suitable for high capacity vessel weighing and feature a combined error specification of lt plusmn 003
The critical sensor element of the VC3500 unit is a fully welded double ended shear beam manufactured from high tensile 17-4 PH released stainless steel heat treated to give a high ultimate tensile strength This treatment provides an extremely stable platform for the strain guages In common with all Thames Side load cells the strain gauged element is temperature compensated to ensure accuracy is maintained through a wide temperature range
Stainless steel diaphragms are TIG welded in position to provide total environmental sealing This method of construction allows Thames Side to offer a five year warranty on the complete unit
Vessel Restraints The loading assembly is an integral part of the VC3500 and in many cases can eliminate the requirement for vessel restraints or check rods
Atex Certification The VC3500 has ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as Ex nA II T6 gas only certification which allows zone 2 use without safety barriers

High TemperatureThe VC3500 range is available in a high temperature variant which utilises special load cell components and PTFE Teflon cable for operation in environments up to 150˚C
Environmental ProtectionAlthough the standard load cell is manufactured from stainless steel and sealed to IP68 special parylene coating of the load cell is available as an option to provide additional protection in extreme environments where stress corrosion could occur
Amplified OutputAn integral 4-20mA amplified output can be specified where required

ASSEMBLY DEFLECTIONAND EXPANSION

Due to the unique design of the VC3500 Transverse and Non Axial misalignment errors are minimised
VC3500 Capacities 2 - 200 tThe unit is manufactured in 5 shell sizes as followsShell size 1 2 - 20 tShell size 2 30 - 50 tShell size 3 75 tShell size 4 100 tShell size 5 150 - 200 t
The loading assembly has a tough durable paint finish as standard to provide the highest level of protection Stainless steel or galvanised alloy steel is available as an option
The bi-directional freedom of movement of the top plate allows for a high degree of mis-alignment in the structure particularly important in large structures where dimensional accuracy rigidity and angular conformity cannot be guaranteed or where large changes in ambient temperature are anticipated The complete assembly incorporates built in lift off protection reducing the need in many cases for additional restraints Integrated holding bolts on capacities up to 75t facilitate routine maintenance This eliminates the need for expensive installation work giving a very cost effective total solution

LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable

LeverMountreg
Unique patented and cost effectivesolution for process weighing applications
capacities 10kg to 5000kg
Purpose designed stainless load cell and mount arrangement
High stability three point mounting
Easily configurable for radial or tangential mounting
Allows for vessel expansion and contraction
LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without jacking
Straightforward low cost installation without specialist tooling
Substantial lift off prevention
Tolerant of steel work misalignment
Load cell removal without jacking or dummies
Stainless steel OIML C3 approved load cell fully welded sealed to IP68
LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable
LeverMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell and mount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for process weighing and materials storage applications

Resistant to off-axis loading
Tough and durable paint finish
Vessel weighing problems solved simply and cost effectively The MasterMountreg is the latest addition to an innovative range of patented weighing assemblies which are designed with safety and ease of installation in mind
MasterMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side Sensors Ltd
Thames Sidersquos MasterMountreg is the latest in a range of unique patented load cell and mountcombinations which include the LeverMountreg and LeverMount Litereg and extends the range ofcapacities up to 30 tonnes
The MasterMountreg hasprimarily been designed for easysafe simple installation andremoval of the load cell withoutthe aid of specialist tools jacksor other equipment
The special design also avoidsthe need to use dummy cellswhilst any welding or other workis being undertaken on thevessel The high specificationdouble ended stainless steelshear beam load cellincorporated in theMasterMountreg is the samemodel used in Thames Sidersquos popular VC3500 lsquotraditionalrsquomount arrangement The loadcell can also be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as Ex nA II T6 gas only certification which allows Zone 2 use without safety barriers
High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable Although the standard load cell is manufactured from stainless steel and sealed to IP68 special parylene coating of the load cell is available as an option to provide additional protection in extreme environments where stress corrosion could occur
A patented lever and cam mechanism enables the top plate of the loading assembly to be raised and lowered with a 180 degree turn which can be accomplished easily with just an M30 socket spanner and T-bar The stainless steel load cell is retained within the assembly by simple captivated pins thus avoiding the use of fiddly retaining clips Lift off protection is provided through the mount itself rather than the traditional design of under or through the load cell which protects the load cell from reverse shock loading The Mastermountreg assembly is manufactured from high strength cast steel and is protected by a durable and hard wearing corrosion resistant paint finish
Once the MasterMountreg loading assembly has been fitted under the vessel installation and removalof the load cell can be accomplished in minutes resulting in large savings in installation costs
The MasterMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell andmount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for ProcessWeighing and Materials Storage applications
Our Technical Department is happy to provide free technical and applications advice as well as help with optimum load cell selection

The critical sensor element of the VC3500 unit is a fully welded
double ended shear beam manufactured from high tensile
17-4 PH released stainless steel heat treated to give a high
ultimate tensile strength This treatment provides an extremely
stable platform for the strain gauges In common with all
Thames Side load cells the strain gauged element is
temperature compensated to ensure accuracy is maintained
through a wide temperature range
Stainless steel diaphragms are TIG welded in position to provide
total environmental sealing This method of construction allows
Thames Side to offer a five year warranty on the complete unit
Vessel Restraints
The galvanised loading assembly is an integral part of the VC3500 and
eliminates the mandatory requirement for vessel restraints or check rods

The loading assembly is alloy and galvauised to provide the highest level of protection for offshore applications Stainless Steel is available as an option
The bi-directional freedom of movement of the top plate allows for a
high degree of mis-alignment in the structure particularly important
in large structures where dimensional accuracy rigidity and angular
conformity cannot be guaranteed or where large changes in
ambient temperature are anticipated The complete assembly
incorporates built in lift off protection reducing the need for
additional restraints Integrated jacking bolts facilitate routine
maintenance and calibration This eliminates the need for expensive
installation work giving a very cost effective total solution

The VC3500 family of load cells are available in capacities ranging from 2000kg to 200000kg They are especially suitable for high capacity vessel weighing and feature a combined error specification of lt plusmn 003
The critical sensor element of the VC3500 unit is a fully welded double ended shear beam manufactured from high tensile 17-4 PH released stainless steel heat treated to give a high ultimate tensile strength This treatment provides an extremely stable platform for the strain guages In common with all Thames Side load cells the strain gauged element is temperature compensated to ensure accuracy is maintained through a wide temperature range
Stainless steel diaphragms are TIG welded in position to provide total environmental sealing This method of construction allows Thames Side to offer a five year warranty on the complete unit
Vessel Restraints The loading assembly is an integral part of the VC3500 and in many cases can eliminate the requirement for vessel restraints or check rods
Atex Certification The VC3500 has ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as Ex nA II T6 gas only certification which allows zone 2 use without safety barriers

LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable

The loading assembly is alloy and galvauised to provide the highest level of protection for offshore applications Stainless Steel is available as an option
The bi-directional freedom of movement of the top plate allows for a
high degree of mis-alignment in the structure particularly important
in large structures where dimensional accuracy rigidity and angular
conformity cannot be guaranteed or where large changes in
ambient temperature are anticipated The complete assembly
incorporates built in lift off protection reducing the need for
additional restraints Integrated jacking bolts facilitate routine

Stainless steel OIML C3 approved load cell fully welded sealed to IP68
LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable
LeverMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell and mount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for process weighing and materials storage applications

Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable
LeverMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell and mount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for process weighing and materials storage applications

Vessel weighing problems solved simply and cost effectively The VC3500 incorporates lift off prevention and on most capacities holding bolts to assist with routine maintenance The VC3500 is also available with intrinsically safe certification ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 for use in both Gas and Dust Zones and Ex nA II T6 Gas only certification for use in Zone 2 applications without safety barriers
Series VC3500The VC3500 family of load cells are available in capacities
ranging from 2000kg to 200000kg They are especially suitable
The critical sensor element of the VC3500 unit is a fully welded
double ended shear beam manufactured from high tensile
17-4 PH released stainless steel heat treated to give a high
ultimate tensile strength This treatment provides an extremely
stable platform for the strain gauges In common with all
Thames Side load cells the strain gauged element is
temperature compensated to ensure accuracy is maintained
through a wide temperature range
Stainless steel diaphragms are TIG welded in position to provide
total environmental sealing This method of construction allows
Thames Side to offer a five year warranty on the complete unit
Vessel Restraints
The galvanised loading assembly is an integral part of the VC3500 and
eliminates the mandatory requirement for vessel restraints or check rods

Shell size 5 150 - 200 te
The loading assembly is alloy and galvauised to provide the highest level of protection for offshore applications Stainless Steel is available as an option
The bi-directional freedom of movement of the top plate allows for a
high degree of mis-alignment in the structure particularly important
in large structures where dimensional accuracy rigidity and angular
conformity cannot be guaranteed or where large changes in
ambient temperature are anticipated The complete assembly
incorporates built in lift off protection reducing the need for
additional restraints Integrated jacking bolts facilitate routine
maintenance and calibration This eliminates the need for expensive

Stainless steel OIML C3 approved load cell fully welded sealed to IP68
LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable

Vessel weighing problems solved simply and cost effectively The VC3500 incorporates lift off prevention and on most capacities holding bolts to assist with routine maintenance The VC3500 is also available with intrinsically safe certification ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 for use in both Gas and Dust Zones and Ex nA II T6 Gas only certification for use in Zone 2 applications without safety barriers
Series VC3500The VC3500 family of load cells are available in capacities
ranging from 2000kg to 200000kg They are especially suitable
The critical sensor element of the VC3500 unit is a fully welded
double ended shear beam manufactured from high tensile
17-4 PH released stainless steel heat treated to give a high
ultimate tensile strength This treatment provides an extremely
stable platform for the strain gauges In common with all
Thames Side load cells the strain gauged element is
temperature compensated to ensure accuracy is maintained
through a wide temperature range
Stainless steel diaphragms are TIG welded in position to provide
total environmental sealing This method of construction allows
Thames Side to offer a five year warranty on the complete unit
Vessel Restraints
The galvanised loading assembly is an integral part of the VC3500 and
eliminates the mandatory requirement for vessel restraints or check rods

The loading assembly is alloy and galvauised to provide the highest level of protection for offshore applications Stainless Steel is available as an option
The bi-directional freedom of movement of the top plate allows for a
high degree of mis-alignment in the structure particularly important
in large structures where dimensional accuracy rigidity and angular
conformity cannot be guaranteed or where large changes in
ambient temperature are anticipated The complete assembly
incorporates built in lift off protection reducing the need for
additional restraints Integrated jacking bolts facilitate routine
maintenance and calibration This eliminates the need for expensive

Stainless steel OIML C3 approved load cell fully welded sealed to IP68
LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable
LeverMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell and mount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for process weighing and materials storage applications

Series VC3500The VC3500 family of load cells are available in capacities
ranging from 2000kg to 200000kg They are especially suitable
The critical sensor element of the VC3500 unit is a fully welded
double ended shear beam manufactured from high tensile
17-4 PH released stainless steel heat treated to give a high
ultimate tensile strength This treatment provides an extremely
stable platform for the strain gauges In common with all
Thames Side load cells the strain gauged element is
temperature compensated to ensure accuracy is maintained
through a wide temperature range
Stainless steel diaphragms are TIG welded in position to provide
total environmental sealing This method of construction allows
Thames Side to offer a five year warranty on the complete unit
Vessel Restraints
The galvanised loading assembly is an integral part of the VC3500 and
eliminates the mandatory requirement for vessel restraints or check rods

The loading assembly is alloy and galvauised to provide the highest level of protection for offshore applications Stainless Steel is available as an option
The bi-directional freedom of movement of the top plate allows for a
high degree of mis-alignment in the structure particularly important
in large structures where dimensional accuracy rigidity and angular
conformity cannot be guaranteed or where large changes in
ambient temperature are anticipated The complete assembly
incorporates built in lift off protection reducing the need for
additional restraints Integrated jacking bolts facilitate routine
maintenance and calibration This eliminates the need for expensive

LeverMountreg
Unique patented and cost effectivesolution for process weighing applications
capacities 10kg to 5000kg
Purpose designed stainless load cell and mount arrangement
High stability three point mounting
Easily configurable for radial or tangential mounting
Allows for vessel expansion and contraction
LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without jacking
Straightforward low cost installation without specialist tooling
Substantial lift off prevention
Tolerant of steel work misalignment
Load cell removal without jacking or dummies
Stainless steel OIML C3 approved load cell fully welded sealed to IP68
LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable
LeverMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell and mount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for process weighing and materials storage applications

The special design also avoidsthe need to use dummy cellswhilst any welding or other workis being undertaken on thevessel The high specificationdouble ended stainless steelshear beam load cellincorporated in theMasterMountreg is the samemodel used in Thames Sidersquos popular VC3500 lsquotraditionalrsquomount arrangement The loadcell can also be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as Ex nA II T6 gas only certification which allows Zone 2 use without safety barriers
High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable Although the standard load cell is manufactured from stainless steel and sealed to IP68 special parylene coating of the load cell is available as an option to provide additional protection in extreme environments where stress corrosion could occur
A patented lever and cam mechanism enables the top plate of the loading assembly to be raised and lowered with a 180 degree turn which can be accomplished easily with just an M30 socket spanner and T-bar The stainless steel load cell is retained within the assembly by simple captivated pins thus avoiding the use of fiddly retaining clips Lift off protection is provided through the mount itself rather than the traditional design of under or through the load cell which protects the load cell from reverse shock loading The Mastermountreg assembly is manufactured from high strength cast steel and is protected by a durable and hard wearing corrosion resistant paint finish
Once the MasterMountreg loading assembly has been fitted under the vessel installation and removalof the load cell can be accomplished in minutes resulting in large savings in installation costs
The MasterMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell andmount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for ProcessWeighing and Materials Storage applications
Our Technical Department is happy to provide free technical and applications advice as well as help with optimum load cell selection

Expansion Expansion
Due to the unique design of the VC3500 Transverse and Non Axial misalignment errors are minimised
VC3500 Capacities 2 - 200 tThe unit is manufactured in 5 shell sizes as followsShell size 1 2 - 20 tShell size 2 30 - 50 tShell size 3 75 tShell size 4 100 tShell size 5 150 - 200 t
The loading assembly has a tough durable paint finish as standard to provide the highest level of protection Stainless steel or galvanised alloy steel is available as an option
The bi-directional freedom of movement of the top plate allows for a high degree of mis-alignment in the structure particularly important in large structures where dimensional accuracy rigidity and angular conformity cannot be guaranteed or where large changes in ambient temperature are anticipated The complete assembly incorporates built in lift off protection reducing the need in many cases for additional restraints Integrated holding bolts on capacities up to 75t facilitate routine maintenance This eliminates the need for expensive installation work giving a very cost effective total solution

Stainless steel OIML C3 approved load cell fully welded sealed to IP68
LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable
LeverMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell and mount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for process weighing and materials storage applications

High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable Although the standard load cell is manufactured from stainless steel and sealed to IP68 special parylene coating of the load cell is available as an option to provide additional protection in extreme environments where stress corrosion could occur
A patented lever and cam mechanism enables the top plate of the loading assembly to be raised and lowered with a 180 degree turn which can be accomplished easily with just an M30 socket spanner and T-bar The stainless steel load cell is retained within the assembly by simple captivated pins thus avoiding the use of fiddly retaining clips Lift off protection is provided through the mount itself rather than the traditional design of under or through the load cell which protects the load cell from reverse shock loading The Mastermountreg assembly is manufactured from high strength cast steel and is protected by a durable and hard wearing corrosion resistant paint finish
Once the MasterMountreg loading assembly has been fitted under the vessel installation and removalof the load cell can be accomplished in minutes resulting in large savings in installation costs
The MasterMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell andmount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for ProcessWeighing and Materials Storage applications
Our Technical Department is happy to provide free technical and applications advice as well as help with optimum load cell selection

Stainless steel OIML C3 approved load cell fully welded sealed to IP68
LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable
LeverMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell and mount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for process weighing and materials storage applications

Stainless steel OIML C3 approved load cell fully welded sealed to IP68
LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable
LeverMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell and mount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for process weighing and materials storage applications

LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable

Stainless steel OIML C3 approved load cell fully welded sealed to IP68
LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable
LeverMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell and mount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for process weighing and materials storage applications

Stainless steel OIML C3 approved load cell fully welded sealed to IP68
LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable
LeverMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell and mount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for process weighing and materials storage applications

LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable

LeverMountreg
Unique patented and cost effectivesolution for process weighing applications
capacities 10kg to 5000kg
Purpose designed stainless load cell and mount arrangement
High stability three point mounting
Easily configurable for radial or tangential mounting
Allows for vessel expansion and contraction
LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without jacking
Straightforward low cost installation without specialist tooling
Substantial lift off prevention
Tolerant of steel work misalignment
Load cell removal without jacking or dummies
Stainless steel OIML C3 approved load cell fully welded sealed to IP68
LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable
LeverMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell and mount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for process weighing and materials storage applications

Vessel weighing problems solved simply and cost effectively The MasterMountreg is the latest addition to an innovative range of patented weighing assemblies which are designed with safety and ease of installation in mind
MasterMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side Sensors Ltd
Thames Sidersquos MasterMountreg is the latest in a range of unique patented load cell and mountcombinations which include the LeverMountreg and LeverMount Litereg and extends the range ofcapacities up to 30 tonnes
The MasterMountreg hasprimarily been designed for easysafe simple installation andremoval of the load cell withoutthe aid of specialist tools jacksor other equipment
The special design also avoidsthe need to use dummy cellswhilst any welding or other workis being undertaken on thevessel The high specificationdouble ended stainless steelshear beam load cellincorporated in theMasterMountreg is the samemodel used in Thames Sidersquos popular VC3500 lsquotraditionalrsquomount arrangement The loadcell can also be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as Ex nA II T6 gas only certification which allows Zone 2 use without safety barriers
High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable Although the standard load cell is manufactured from stainless steel and sealed to IP68 special parylene coating of the load cell is available as an option to provide additional protection in extreme environments where stress corrosion could occur
A patented lever and cam mechanism enables the top plate of the loading assembly to be raised and lowered with a 180 degree turn which can be accomplished easily with just an M30 socket spanner and T-bar The stainless steel load cell is retained within the assembly by simple captivated pins thus avoiding the use of fiddly retaining clips Lift off protection is provided through the mount itself rather than the traditional design of under or through the load cell which protects the load cell from reverse shock loading The Mastermountreg assembly is manufactured from high strength cast steel and is protected by a durable and hard wearing corrosion resistant paint finish
Once the MasterMountreg loading assembly has been fitted under the vessel installation and removalof the load cell can be accomplished in minutes resulting in large savings in installation costs
The MasterMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell andmount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for ProcessWeighing and Materials Storage applications
Our Technical Department is happy to provide free technical and applications advice as well as help with optimum load cell selection

Stainless steel OIML C3 approved load cell fully welded sealed to IP68
LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable

Stainless steel OIML C3 approved load cell fully welded sealed to IP68
LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable
LeverMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell and mount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for process weighing and materials storage applications

MasterMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side Sensors Ltd
Thames Sidersquos MasterMountreg is the latest in a range of unique patented load cell and mountcombinations which include the LeverMountreg and LeverMount Litereg and extends the range ofcapacities up to 30 tonnes
The MasterMountreg hasprimarily been designed for easysafe simple installation andremoval of the load cell withoutthe aid of specialist tools jacksor other equipment
The special design also avoidsthe need to use dummy cellswhilst any welding or other workis being undertaken on thevessel The high specificationdouble ended stainless steelshear beam load cellincorporated in theMasterMountreg is the samemodel used in Thames Sidersquos popular VC3500 lsquotraditionalrsquomount arrangement The loadcell can also be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as Ex nA II T6 gas only certification which allows Zone 2 use without safety barriers
High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable Although the standard load cell is manufactured from stainless steel and sealed to IP68 special parylene coating of the load cell is available as an option to provide additional protection in extreme environments where stress corrosion could occur
A patented lever and cam mechanism enables the top plate of the loading assembly to be raised and lowered with a 180 degree turn which can be accomplished easily with just an M30 socket spanner and T-bar The stainless steel load cell is retained within the assembly by simple captivated pins thus avoiding the use of fiddly retaining clips Lift off protection is provided through the mount itself rather than the traditional design of under or through the load cell which protects the load cell from reverse shock loading The Mastermountreg assembly is manufactured from high strength cast steel and is protected by a durable and hard wearing corrosion resistant paint finish
Once the MasterMountreg loading assembly has been fitted under the vessel installation and removalof the load cell can be accomplished in minutes resulting in large savings in installation costs
The MasterMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell andmount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for ProcessWeighing and Materials Storage applications
Our Technical Department is happy to provide free technical and applications advice as well as help with optimum load cell selection

LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable
LeverMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell and mount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for process weighing and materials storage applications

Stainless steel OIML C3 approved load cell fully welded sealed to IP68
LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable
LeverMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell and mount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for process weighing and materials storage applications

Stainless steel OIML C3 approved load cell fully welded sealed to IP68
LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable
LeverMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell and mount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for process weighing and materials storage applications

Vessel weighing problems solved simply and cost effectively The MasterMountreg is the latest addition to an innovative range of patented weighing assemblies which are designed with safety and ease of installation in mind
MasterMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side Sensors Ltd
Thames Sidersquos MasterMountreg is the latest in a range of unique patented load cell and mountcombinations which include the LeverMountreg and LeverMount Litereg and extends the range ofcapacities up to 30 tonnes
The MasterMountreg hasprimarily been designed for easysafe simple installation andremoval of the load cell withoutthe aid of specialist tools jacksor other equipment
The special design also avoidsthe need to use dummy cellswhilst any welding or other workis being undertaken on thevessel The high specificationdouble ended stainless steelshear beam load cellincorporated in theMasterMountreg is the samemodel used in Thames Sidersquos popular VC3500 lsquotraditionalrsquomount arrangement The loadcell can also be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as Ex nA II T6 gas only certification which allows Zone 2 use without safety barriers
High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable Although the standard load cell is manufactured from stainless steel and sealed to IP68 special parylene coating of the load cell is available as an option to provide additional protection in extreme environments where stress corrosion could occur
A patented lever and cam mechanism enables the top plate of the loading assembly to be raised and lowered with a 180 degree turn which can be accomplished easily with just an M30 socket spanner and T-bar The stainless steel load cell is retained within the assembly by simple captivated pins thus avoiding the use of fiddly retaining clips Lift off protection is provided through the mount itself rather than the traditional design of under or through the load cell which protects the load cell from reverse shock loading The Mastermountreg assembly is manufactured from high strength cast steel and is protected by a durable and hard wearing corrosion resistant paint finish
Once the MasterMountreg loading assembly has been fitted under the vessel installation and removalof the load cell can be accomplished in minutes resulting in large savings in installation costs
The MasterMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell andmount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for ProcessWeighing and Materials Storage applications
Our Technical Department is happy to provide free technical and applications advice as well as help with optimum load cell selection

The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable
LeverMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell and mount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for process weighing and materials storage applications

LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable
LeverMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell and mount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for process weighing and materials storage applications

LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable

LeverMountreg is the latest development in load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors Process weighing installations are made easier safer and more cost effective using this simple innovative design
Load cells approved to 3000 divisions OIML R60 Class C
Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable
LeverMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell and mount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for process weighing and materials storage applications

Available with ATEX certification for hazardous area applications For applications in aggressive environments where stress corrosion or acid attack is an issue a special parylene coating can be specified as an option High temperature variants are also available
The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable

The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly

The concept of a purpose designed loading assembly using single ended shear beam load cells for vessel weighing was first introduced in the early 1980rsquos LeverMountreg is the latest generation of load cell weighing assemblies from Thames Side Sensors specifically designed to offer a completely fresh approach to process weighing solutions
Utilising the established range of Thames Side shear beam and bending beam load cells the patented LeverMountreg retains all of the advantages of previous mount designs whilst providing improved mechanical stability before during and after installation
The top plate of the LeverMountreg can be raised and lowered under load without specialist toolsAdditionally the load cell can be removed or replaced without the need for external jacks or dummy load cells Two types of load cell interface can be specified a load button and saddle arrangement with expansioncontraction adjustment for static applications such as hoppers and tanks and a ball and cup self centering option for dynamic applications such as floor scales
UNIQUE amp SIMPLEMany other designs of mounting assembly provide a threaded jacking feature which allows a vessel to be supported by the mount prior to the installation of the load cells however under most load conditions an external jack is needed to raise and lower the vessel and threads can become clogged with dirt or powder rendering the integral jacking mechanism unusable even under low loads
LeverMountrsquosreg unique patented design is such that no separate support arrangements are necessary to raise and lower the vessel The base casting itself provides a stable load-bearing platform prior to installation of the load cell Once the vessel is in position and the two transit bolts are removed the load cell is used as a lever to raise the top plate of the mount into the working position regardless of whether the vessel is empty or full
LeverMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side-Sensors Ltd
Removal of a load cell at any time is accomplished by reversing the procedure and requires no jacks dummy load cells or specialist tools Installation operation and maintenance of the vessel weighing system is consequently made safer easier swifter and less costly
Load cells for use in the LeverMountreg can be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as certification which allows Zone 20 21 and 22 use without safety barriers High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable
LeverMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell and mount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for process weighing and materials storage applications

Thames Sidersquos MasterMountreg is the latest in a range of unique patented load cell and mountcombinations which include the LeverMountreg and LeverMount Litereg and extends the range ofcapacities up to 30 tonnes
The MasterMountreg hasprimarily been designed for easysafe simple installation andremoval of the load cell withoutthe aid of specialist tools jacksor other equipment
The special design also avoidsthe need to use dummy cellswhilst any welding or other workis being undertaken on thevessel The high specificationdouble ended stainless steelshear beam load cellincorporated in theMasterMountreg is the samemodel used in Thames Sidersquos popular VC3500 lsquotraditionalrsquomount arrangement The loadcell can also be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as Ex nA II T6 gas only certification which allows Zone 2 use without safety barriers
High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable Although the standard load cell is manufactured from stainless steel and sealed to IP68 special parylene coating of the load cell is available as an option to provide additional protection in extreme environments where stress corrosion could occur
A patented lever and cam mechanism enables the top plate of the loading assembly to be raised and lowered with a 180 degree turn which can be accomplished easily with just an M30 socket spanner and T-bar The stainless steel load cell is retained within the assembly by simple captivated pins thus avoiding the use of fiddly retaining clips Lift off protection is provided through the mount itself rather than the traditional design of under or through the load cell which protects the load cell from reverse shock loading The Mastermountreg assembly is manufactured from high strength cast steel and is protected by a durable and hard wearing corrosion resistant paint finish
Once the MasterMountreg loading assembly has been fitted under the vessel installation and removalof the load cell can be accomplished in minutes resulting in large savings in installation costs
The MasterMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell andmount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for ProcessWeighing and Materials Storage applications

Vessel weighing problems solved simply and cost effectively The MasterMountreg is the latest addition to an innovative range of patented weighing assemblies which are designed with safety and ease of installation in mind
MasterMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side Sensors Ltd
Thames Sidersquos MasterMountreg is the latest in a range of unique patented load cell and mountcombinations which include the LeverMountreg and LeverMount Litereg and extends the range ofcapacities up to 30 tonnes
The MasterMountreg hasprimarily been designed for easysafe simple installation andremoval of the load cell withoutthe aid of specialist tools jacksor other equipment
The special design also avoidsthe need to use dummy cellswhilst any welding or other workis being undertaken on thevessel The high specificationdouble ended stainless steelshear beam load cellincorporated in theMasterMountreg is the samemodel used in Thames Sidersquos popular VC3500 lsquotraditionalrsquomount arrangement The loadcell can also be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as Ex nA II T6 gas only certification which allows Zone 2 use without safety barriers
High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable Although the standard load cell is manufactured from stainless steel and sealed to IP68 special parylene coating of the load cell is available as an option to provide additional protection in extreme environments where stress corrosion could occur
A patented lever and cam mechanism enables the top plate of the loading assembly to be raised and lowered with a 180 degree turn which can be accomplished easily with just an M30 socket spanner and T-bar The stainless steel load cell is retained within the assembly by simple captivated pins thus avoiding the use of fiddly retaining clips Lift off protection is provided through the mount itself rather than the traditional design of under or through the load cell which protects the load cell from reverse shock loading The Mastermountreg assembly is manufactured from high strength cast steel and is protected by a durable and hard wearing corrosion resistant paint finish
Once the MasterMountreg loading assembly has been fitted under the vessel installation and removalof the load cell can be accomplished in minutes resulting in large savings in installation costs
The MasterMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell andmount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for ProcessWeighing and Materials Storage applications
Our Technical Department is happy to provide free technical and applications advice as well as help with optimum load cell selection

MasterMountreg - Innovation from Thames Side Sensors Ltd
Thames Sidersquos MasterMountreg is the latest in a range of unique patented load cell and mountcombinations which include the LeverMountreg and LeverMount Litereg and extends the range ofcapacities up to 30 tonnes
The MasterMountreg hasprimarily been designed for easysafe simple installation andremoval of the load cell withoutthe aid of specialist tools jacksor other equipment
The special design also avoidsthe need to use dummy cellswhilst any welding or other workis being undertaken on thevessel The high specificationdouble ended stainless steelshear beam load cellincorporated in theMasterMountreg is the samemodel used in Thames Sidersquos popular VC3500 lsquotraditionalrsquomount arrangement The loadcell can also be specified with ATEX EEx ia IIC T6 certification for both dust and gas in all zones as well as Ex nA II T6 gas only certification which allows Zone 2 use without safety barriers
High temperature versions are also available for operation up to 150˚C utilising special high temperature components and PTFE Teflon cable Although the standard load cell is manufactured from stainless steel and sealed to IP68 special parylene coating of the load cell is available as an option to provide additional protection in extreme environments where stress corrosion could occur
A patented lever and cam mechanism enables the top plate of the loading assembly to be raised and lowered with a 180 degree turn which can be accomplished easily with just an M30 socket spanner and T-bar The stainless steel load cell is retained within the assembly by simple captivated pins thus avoiding the use of fiddly retaining clips Lift off protection is provided through the mount itself rather than the traditional design of under or through the load cell which protects the load cell from reverse shock loading The Mastermountreg assembly is manufactured from high strength cast steel and is protected by a durable and hard wearing corrosion resistant paint finish
Once the MasterMountreg loading assembly has been fitted under the vessel installation and removalof the load cell can be accomplished in minutes resulting in large savings in installation costs
The MasterMountreg is just one product in an extensive range of innovative Thames Side load cell andmount arrangements with capacities from 10kg up to 600 tonnes designed specifically for ProcessWeighing and Materials Storage applications
Our Technical Department is happy to provide free technical and applications advice as well as help with optimum load cell selection
