Control unit SIWAREX FTA

Control unit for legal-for-trade dosing systems
Automatic and non-automatic weighing
Parameterizable digital inputs and outputs
Theoretical adjustment without adjustment weights
Recording of weighing sequence
Legal-for-trade alibi memory
Can be used in Ex applications (optional)

Description

The control unit SIWAREX FTA is a modern evaluation system. It is the optimum solution wherever high demands are placed on the accuracy and speed of the weighing process in an automation environment.

Typical applications:

In static weighings in the automation environment, also for legal-for-trade applications:

Control of dosing systems
Filling of solids or liquids
Dosing of individual quantities
Checking individual quantities
Loading or receiving of materials and totalizing

For all applications, the control unit provides for EC type approval (OIML R76, OIML R61, OIML R51, OIML R107 scale types).

The SIWAREX FTA function module is integrated in SIMATIC S7/ PCS7 and uses the features of this modern automation system, such as integral communication, diagnostics and configuration tools.

Pre-configuration and a software tool for operation via PC facilitate the installation. As the SIWAREX FTA is already factory-calibrated, modules can be replaced with a simple adjustment via SIWATOOL FTA.
