Device description
2.1
Intended use and properties
ADT42
is a multipurpose
4-channel
measuring module for load cells. It enables very precise
measurement with resolution up to 100.000 of measuring range.
ADT42 has multipurpose usage as well at industry as in laboratory, where averaged or precise force
(weight) measurement is necessary. Depends on used sensor there is a possibility of measurement of
small masses in range as well small weights (grams) as large loads (tons). Due to possibility of
aggregate of measurements from selected channels the module can be used in multi-sensor weight
systems.
ADT42 has
2 transistor outputs
, and
2 insulated inputs
(one tare input). Built-in operating modes
enable the device to be used for dosing without any additional controllers. Measured values can be
converted into analogue signal in
0-10V
(
ADT42-U
version) or
(0)4-20mA
standard (
ADT42-I
version).
Access to device is also possible through
RS485
bus in
MODBUS-RTU
protocol, which allows direct
communication one or several modules simultaneously with PLC drivers or HMI panels.
Device configuration can be made also by
USB
connector
ADT42-PC
program. This program except
device settings enables preview of current measurement values, saving them to a file and to show
data on a graph.
