Connecting plate customized to match the size and hole configuration of the connecting weigh-hopper, vertical blender, tank bin, etc. Notice the SS sheathed home-run cable, stabilizers (cross pieces), junction box (variable positioning), custom block.
This little block is one of the trade secrets that allowed Us to build the first ever fully electronic fertilizer scale. .
Some older Kraus weigh-hoppers do not have connecting plates for the scale and the legs that fit into cups on the hopper are mild steel.
When weigh-hoppers are made with stainless steel and the scale is made with mild steel the scale is often replaced several times over the life of the hopper. While Stainless steel mechanical scales are very expensive they don't fare much better because certain components in a stainless steel mechanical scale are subject to shattering
