Weight Indicator and Controller Bulkhead Mounted (SMW)
- Weight Indicator with large, high resolution LCD display
- 10V 160mA excitation for up to 6 Load Cells
- Simple one pass auto calibration
- 2 Set points, SPCO relay outputs
- Fully isolated 4-20mA and 0-10V analog outputs
- RS232 or RS485 communications
- IP65 / NEMA4 ABS housing for wall or surface mounting
The SMW load cell display and controller is bulkhead mounted for strain gauge or load cell measurement applications, with analog or digital output and relay set point outputs.
The SMW weighing indicator / controller is a very flexible digital indicator and display system in a bulkhead mounting format, optimised for single or multiple load cell and weighing applications.
The digital architecture offers very easy one-pass calibration and fast setup.
This versatile load cell indicator offers options of isolated analogue outputs, latching relays or digital outputs for control or alarm functions.
The RS232 or RS485 options provide for digital communications (including setup) and can support label or ticket printers.
Additional Features
Variable gain input sensitivity from 0.5 to 200 mV/V
Auto tare and peak hold actioned by volt-free contacts
Programmable in-flight compensation for dynamic weighing operations
Six wire input for barrier and cable compensation
