The intrinsically safe harsh/analog IND560x weighing terminal by Mettler Toledo is available with an external NiMH battery option. The IND560x-PAB (Power Adapter Board) offers greater portability and flexibility in potentially hazardous production environments.
Designed for exacting process control in filling, dosing and manual weighing operations, the optional internal solid state discrete inputs and passive outputs offer direct control of the intrinsically safe solenoids. The analog to digital conversion rate and 50 Hz target update rate helps deliver maximum filling and dosing control for consistent and safe formulation in high-speed, automatic production applications.
With a harsh enclosure certified for IP69K ingress protection, the IND560x offers reliable operation in even the harshest industrial environments.
The intrinsically safe serial port on the IND560x allows direct communications connection to devices such as approved bar code readers. Fiber optic or copper wire connections to communication modules in the safe area provide nearly limitless configuration possibilities when integrating the device to a higher level PLC, DCS, MES or MRP system. The weighing termina meets a variety of global safety and weights & measures standards—including FM/ATEX/IECEx/NEPSI and NTEP/NMi.
