Siemens SIWAREX WT500 Weighing Terminal Flowmeter for Solids
Product Code: 7MH7600
Manufacturer: Siemens
Siemens SIWAREX WT500 is a powerful, full-feature terminal that is designed for use with belt scales, solids flowmeters, and weighfeeders.
When configured for belt weighing (BW), the WT500 processes speed signals from the conveyor and load signals from the scale to calculate the rate of material flow and totalization. The primary values of speed and load, along with the derived values of rate and total, are displayed on the local liquid crystal display (LCD) or output as analog mA, alarm relay, or remote totalization.
When configured for solids flow (SF) the WT500 processes signals from the flowmeter to calculate the rate of material flow and totalization. The derived values of rate and total are displayed on the local LCD or output as analog mA, alarm relay, or remote totalization.
SIWAREX WT500 can take on lower-level control functions traditionally handled by other devices, and it supports popular industrial communication buses.
Its proven load cell balance function eliminates matching of load cells.
The PID function may be used for rate control on shearing weighfeeders, where belt loading is constant, but can also control prefeeding devices in belt scale and solids flowmeter applications.
Operating in tandem with two or more weighfeeders or solids flowmeters, the WT500 may be used for ratio blending and controlling additives.
- Accuracy of 0.1 % of full scale and resolution of 0.02 % of full scale ensures precise measurements.
- Handles configurations of 1, 2, 4, or 6 load cells, making WT500 suitable for a variety of weighing applications.
- PID control for precise regulation of process variables.
- Advanced alarm capabilities for rate, load, speed, and diagnostic errors.
- Includes multiple communication options; Modbus RTU, PROFIBUS DP, PROFINET1), EtherNet/IP1), Modbus TCP/IP.
- Quick commissioning wizards make WT500 easy to configure for various belt weighing and solids flow applications.
- Zero and span calibration wizards as well as manual adjustments for critical applications.
- User-friendly HMI interface for ease of navigation and operation.
- 8 GB Micro SD card included to store change logs for parameters and firmware, and an alarm history log.
- Removable terminal blocks for ease of wiring.
- Moisture and incline compensation adjust for material and conveyor variations to maintain consistent load readings.
- Supports weight and chain factoring to align new or unknown test references to the current span.
- EcoTech Profile reduces power consumption for energy-efficient operation.
- Integrated Ethernet port enables webserver access for remote monitoring and configuration.
- Texts on the HMI are available in the following languages: English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, Danish, Swedish, Finnish, Polish, Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Lithuanian, Czech, Turkish, Hungarian, Azerbaijani, and Greek.
