Siemens SIWAREX FTC weighing module is the optimum solution wherever high demands are placed on continuous weighing procedures. Thanks to its outstanding measuring properties, weights can be measured with extreme accuracy in up to three ranges. In the case of force measurements, the value can be measured bidirectionally.
Typical applications for SIWAREX FTC include:
- Flowrate/flow measurement
- Volume measurement
- Material loading, summation
- Flowrate/flow control
- Belt load measurement
- Belt scale/weighfeeder
- Loss-in-weight scale
- Force measurement
Benefits
- Uniform design, and totally integrated communication in SIMATIC S7 and SIMATIC PCS 7
- Uniform configuration with SIMATIC
- Direct use in the SIMATIC automation system
- Use in distributed plant concept through connection to PROFIBUS DP/PROFINET using ET 200M
- Measurement of weight or force with high resolution of 16 million intervals
- High accuracy 3 x 6000 d
- Optimized measuring accuracy through use of METTLER TOLEDO weighing modules and Modulo WM and Modulo WMH weighing platforms (specially for loss-in-weight scales and small mass flows)
- Optional connection to PESA load cells
- Display with SIMATIC standard operator panels
- Parameterizable inputs and outputs
- Parameterizable for highly versatile applications
- Flexible adaptation to different requirements with SIMATIC
- Simple adjustment of scale using the SIWATOOL FTC program
- Theoretical adjustment without adjustment weights
- Replacement of module without renewed adjustment of scale
- Recording of weighing sequence
- 8 totalization memories with different digit intervals
- Can be used in Ex applications
