Weighing In On the Benefits of Integrating Static Load Cells With Your Control System

SIWAREX weighing technology dramatically simplifies the integration of weighing systems into the control system.  With weighing electronics that plug directly into the IO rack and an add-on library that contains all function blocks and faceplates for the weighing system, your scale can be fully integrated in just minutes.

 

During this live session, we will discuss:

• The ease of physical installation of weighing modules into I/O racks

• How to leverage the pre-built DCS library (function blocks and faceplates)

• Integration into the DCS HMI with intuitive visualization to support operations 

• How you can access the scale configuration and diagnostic information directly from the control system
