Introduction
The P

PD6100 is a multipurpose, easy-to-use
digital strain gauge & load cell meter ideal for
weighing and force measurement applications. Its
superluminous LED digits make it easily readable in
smoke, dust, fog, and, with the optional SunBright
display, even direct sunlight.
It accepts mV input signals up to 300 mV. With a max
current of 350 mA at 10 V, it can support up to twelve
(12) 350 Ω load cells (minimum load resistance of
28 Ω), making it ideal for multipoint weight
measurement applications. The mV input can be
scaled to display the process in two different scales;
for example, pounds on display line 1 and gallons on
line 2. Three of the front panel buttons can be
custom-programmed for a specific operation.
The basic model includes an isolated 5 or 10VDC
Sensor power supply that can be used to power the
input Sensor or 24 VDC for other devices. An
additional isolated 24 VDC power supply is included
with the 4-20 mA output option. A digital input (F4)
and micro USB port are standard on the meter.
A fully loaded PD6100 meter has the following: four
SPDT relays, 4-20 mA output, one 10 VDC sensor
excitation, and one 24 VDC power supply. The
PD6100 capabilities may be enhanced by adding the
following external expansion modules: four SPST
relays
–creating an eight-relay process meter, two
digital I/O modules with four inputs and four outputs
each, and RS-232 or RS-485 communication
adapters.
The eight relays can be used for alarm indication or
process control such as pump alternation control. The
4-20 mA isolated output, Modbus RTU serial
communications, and digital I/O options make the
PD6100 an excellent addition to any system.
