ABSTRACT:
Apparatus and process are provided for weight-blending two or more constituents on a continuous basis. In operation, the constituents are sequentially added to a weight-measuring tank connected to a weight scale with an indicator which undergoes excursion between sensors positions. The scale face has an indicator which undergoes excursion between position sensors, such as electric eyes. When the system is electrically activated, a first position sensor detects zero weight from the measuring tank and remotely calls for the pumping of the first constituent, which continues until the indicator in excursion reaches a second position indicator. Pumping of the first constituent then ceases and pumping of the second constituent commences and continues until the indicator reaches a third position indicator sensor, at which point pumping of the second constituent ceases, the bottom dump valve is activated to a ready state, and the system cycle stops until emptying of the weight-measuring tank into a blend-holding tank occurs. Constant outflow to a production facility is from the blend-holding tank. When a probe measures a predetermined remaining level of blend within the blend-holding tank, the bottom dump valve empties the weighted measuring tank by gravity flow. When the indicator reaches the zero position, the bottom dump valve closes, is deactivated, and the cycle repeats.
