The ADW15 Weighing Indicator / Controller is a very flexible digital load cell indicator and display system in a panel mount 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 amplifier panel meter 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. For a wall or surface mount version, see model SMW Weighing Indicator / Controller, and for a wireless radio version, see our range of T24 Radio Telemetry Display Modules.

Inputs
Calibration Automatic digital by use of keypad and 1 (or 2) known weights. Manual calibration can also be selected
Auto Tare By pressing keys '>' and then 'R' display will zero. Auto tare value can also be viewed and manually changed if required. Auto tare value is retained on powerdown.
Sensitivity Preset via DIL switches between 0.5 to 200mV/V
Excitation 10V DC nominal, 150mA maximum
Compensation By ± sense wires to compensate for cable, connection volt drops and any variation in 10V supply
Accuracy 90 days ± 0.08% of reading ± 0.05% of FS typical
Drift 0.002%ºC typical @ 2.5mV/V
DC Analogue Outputs
DC Voltage 0 to 5V, 0 to 10V, -10 to +10V, Max Current out 50mA
DC Current 0 to 1mA, 0 to 20mA, 4 to 20mA, Max Current out 50mA
Accuracy typical ± 0.08% of output, ± 0.08%FSD
Resolution as display resolution, max 15 bits
Calibration by 15-turn pre sets for gain and offset
Inversion By keypad value
Isolation ±130V RMS or DC max to analogue input or to any other port
Ranging Fully keypad scalable over desired display range
PID Power level, when selected = 12 bit resolution output
Communication Port CP Operation
All display data can be accessed via the communications port along with relay, PID power and EEPROM status. All user configurable data can be changed including EEPROM enable/disable and relay reset (address code cannot be changed).
