Digital weight transmitter for load cells with RS232/RS485/USB interface fully configurable (protocol, continuous transmission/master-slave, Modbus RTU, serial parameters).

Optional interfaces: Ethernet and Profibus DP by connection with external converters. Calibration procedure with sample weights or automatic theoretical. Possibility to select normal or fast weight acquisition. 3 Diagnostic status and communication lines LED lights. STAND ALONE configuration of the main parameters via DIP-SWITCH for fast setup and independently from PC. Configuration via PC application for calibration and detailed configuration of parameters.

MOUNTING OF THE LOAD CELL

General precautions to be followed in the installation and assembly of load cells:

  • Follow the direction of application of force on the load cell
  • Do not exceed the limits of the temperature as indicated in the data sheet
  • Do not remove labels from the load cell
  • Adequately protect the cables with sleeves or channels
  • Carry out on each load cell a ground connection with suitable cable, shunt on mounting accessories
  • Do not carry out any welding on the mechanical structure after mounting the load cell
  • Avoid or reduce to a minimum level any mechanical constraints between the rigid structure and the weighing structure to avoid error in weighing and return to zero
  • In case of vibration or dynamic loads product the load cells with puffers / shock absorbers
  • Protect load cell from any dust accumulation with any appropriate means
