ISA RP74.01-1984

Furnishes design criteria conducive to simplified specifications and provides recommendations for installation, calibration, and maintenance of continuous belt, weighbridge-type scales. This recommended practice provides an effective base of comparison for scale suppliers, establishes minimum values, and ensures that a scale specification and purchase incorporates the essentials to satisfy a particular weighing job. It permits early belt conveyor design, with the full knowledge of the weigh scale configuration, regardless of the manufacturer.
