Application

SIWAREX WT231 is the optimum solution wherever strain gauge sensors, such as load cells, force sensors or torque measuring shafts, are used for measuring tasks. The following are typical SIWAREX WT231 applications:

• Non-automatic weighing instruments
• Fill-level monitoring of silos and bins
• Measuring of crane and cable loads
• Load measuring for industrial elevators and rolling mills
• Force measuring, hopper scales, platform scales and crane scales

Function

The primary task of SIWAREX WT231 is the measurement and conversion of sensor voltage into a weight value. Up to three interpolation points are used for the weight calculation. The signal can digitally filter if required.

Weighing functions

There are commands available for zeroing and taring. Up to three different tare default values can be activated. The SIWAREX WT231 is calibrated at the factory. This can automatically adjust without adjustment weights, and modules can replace without the need to readjust the scale.
