Siemens SIWAREX U Weighing Module featuring a dual-channel design, it offers efficient connectivity for two sensors simultaneously. It integrates seamlessly with automated industrial systems from the S7-300 series for easy installation. Equipped with a built-in diagnostic system, it enables swift troubleshooting to enhance performance. Designed to withstand shocks and vibrations, this unit is ideal for heavy-duty machinery applications. It’s versatile enough to monitor various aspects, from crane load capacities on construction sites to bunker fill levels.
SIWAREX U 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 U applications:
- Fill level monitoring of silos and bunkers
- Monitoring of crane and cable loads
- Measurement of load of conveyor belts
- Overload protection in industrial elevators and rolling mills
- Scales for potentially explosive areas (can be implemented by using an Ex interface)
- Monitoring of belt tension
Benefits
- Uniform design technology and consistent communication in SIMATIC
- Use in distributed plant concept through connection to PROFIBUS DB/PROFINET using ET 200M
- Measurement of weight or force with a high resolution of 65000 parts and an accuracy of 0.05 %
- Space saving through use of two-channel version for two scales
- Direct connection of a remote display to the TTY interface
- Simple adjustment of scale using the SIWATOOL U program
- Supports theoretical adjustment without adjustment weights
- Supports replacement of module without renewed adjustment of scale
- Can be used in Ex applications
