Construction:
The converter is housed in a metal casing. Signal cables of the weighing platforms (4 pcs maximum) are fed through cable glands. The RS 232 interface is available on an M12 8P connector and the RS 485 cable is led out through a PG11 gland. The device is equipped with an in-built power supply, this allows to power it directly from the mains.
The MW-04-2 mass converter supports 2 weighing platforms as standard, with the option to expand to a maximum of 4.
Area of use:
- Industrial load cell scales;
- Complex weighing systems supervised by computer system thanks to use of the Ethernet module;
- Connecting numerous weighing platforms to an industrial indicator;
- Dosing systems;
- Silo weighing;
- Discrete weighing (no weighing indicator) on a production line;
- Weighing in place with limited access, where instant readout of mass is not required, just record of weighings;
- Large embedded scales, where the converter is installed under the scale;
- Simple systems for chackweighing and result control
- Communication with the automation system due to an implemented MODBUS communication protocol.
- Designing formulas and dosing processes directly on the weighing indicator,
- Dosing and formulations (manual and automatic),
- Configuration of communication between formula making scales and actuators,
- Carrying out dosing and formulations on numerous platforms,
- Placing production orders for formulation (refers to PUE 5) with batches where the following is set: multiplier (quantity of formulation repetitions), source and target warehouse, user, scale.
Formulations and Dosing in the Industry:
Industrial weighing indicators are designed on the basis of an innovative approach to formulation and dosing processes. Communication between the indicators and the modern MW-04 mass converters boosts the functionality of systems that realise both dosing and formulations. Communication interfaces enable placing the weighing platform and the indicator in a considerable distance one from another.
Formulation process carried out using RADWAG indicators is highly popular in various areas of industry, the indicators enable either manual or automatic dispensing of many ingredients in accordance with a pre-defined formulation. Practically any product can be a formulation ingredient, either it is a loose material such as sugar, tea, grain, spices, powders etc. or liquid, this is possible thanks to appropriate automation.
Compatibility with:
- PUE 5 Indicator;
- PUE 7.1 Indicator;
- PUE HY10 Indicator;
- PC.
