Truck Weighing – Single Deck
Truck weighing is handled by indicators in both the R400 and 5000 series. The R400 series indicators feature a multi-line display and handle up to 16x350ohm loadcells. The R457 enhanced with Lua, R400 Series K404 and the 5000 Series 5230 are specifically designed for truck weighing applications.
The D840, D841 and D850 all are large remote displays that can be used outside to display the weight to drivers. The 0071, 0076, 0078 Summing Boxes can be used to get inputs from multiple load cells for truck weighing applications. |
Supported Products
The dedicated Truck ID button and Print button simplify the operator interface. Additionally the alpha-numeric keypad allows for easy entry of tare weight and Truck IDs.
The following R400 series features make it ideal for the application:
- Support for up to 16 x 350 ohm, easily handling a typical 8 load cell bridge.
- Built-in communications ports – for connection to printer and remote display.
- Isolated communication module.
- Alibi (data storage device DSD) module for traceability.
- R457 L404 enhanced with LUA
- Rinstrum truck weighing options now includes our R457 stainless steel indicator with the L404 application to provide ethernet, USB, truck database and web interface.
The 5000 series indicators have been used extensively on weigh bridges.
- Built in RS232 serial communication and RS485 networking
- High contrast LED display
- Analogue Output 4-20mA or 0-10V with 1/65,000 resolution
- DIN standard housing – units can be readily mounted into standard DIN cut outs, reducing modifications to the units they are being installed into.
- High current outputs reduce wiring and the need for external relays.
- Isolated outputs eliminates the possibility of the external control systems influencing the weighing process
- Robust I/O reduces unplanned outages due to component failure
The 5230 specifically handles:
- Single Weighing with Weigh In-Out
- Batch Process Single Weighing (In-Out) where a product fill is performed directly on the weighbridge. The optional outputs could be used to control a product fill from a silo, for example.
- Multiple and Variable Axle Weighing (In-Out) – allows up to 10 axles of a vehicle to be weighed and the weights stored as the transaction.
- 200 memory allocations – to store truck, product and destination identification
- Material usage reporting – against truck ID and destination ID.
Select from one of our large remote displays with Super Bright LEDs that enable outdoor usage for industrial applications, to inform the driver on the weigh bridge.
- The D841 is a 4 inch (102 mm) remote display with traffic lights
- The D850 is a 5 inch (127 mm) remote display which displays STOP and GO rather than traffic lights
- D850 can be placed at 70m (230 feet) at 120 degrees viewing angle and it allows for kg, lb, t and g units to show on display along with STOP and GO
- The 0071 Summing Box takes up to 6 load cell inputs and can be daisy chained with another 0071 to handle up to 11 load cell inputs.
-
0078 junction boxes can take up to 5 load cell inputs with PG7 polymer glands signal trimming . They have a stainless steel housing with IP68 rating.
