1.1 Features
The weighing module provides cost-effective solutions for weighing and metering,
and optimising material flows and volumes.
The PCD2|3.W7x0 module is characterised by the following features:
●
Integration:
The electronic weighing apparatus is placed on a standard Saia
PCD
®
x module. This supports a central automation concept with end-to-end
project planning and programming.
●
Flexibility:
All DMS weighing cells with 4 or 6 terminals can be connected.
●
Economy:
The module is available with two measuring channels to connect up
to six weighing cells, and also obtainable cheaply in larger quantities with only
one channel.
●
High resolution:
The internal measurement resolution supports 200,000
increments.
●
Extensive functionality:
As well as the classical weighing and zeroing
functions, differential measurement is also possible, i.e. measuring the change
in weight per second.
●
Comprehensive diagnostics:
The operating state of the scales is constantly
monitored. Wire breaks and configuration and hardware errors are reported.
Prohibited overloads are even recorded permanently.
