This is a versatile and compact high speed Digital indicator indigenously developed for a variety of Load / Pressure sensing applications. It can work as a PLC front-end with analog retransmission output. It can also be used for Single component filling, Hopper / Tank level control, High speed load testing , etc. RS485 serial communication is provided for interface to other instruments. It is housed in a 96mm X 48 mm DIN Panel mount enclosure and operates using 230 V AC SMPS based power supply.

Load cells for applications ranging from simple weigh scales to tank weighing,crane weighing, etc. are available. Consultancy offered to select the right type of load cell made of the right material with the right capacity can be suggested after studying the application. Load cells from leading manufacturers like Sensortronics, Flintec, Tedea, ADI Artech and Sensomatic are all available. Mounting assemblies suitable for the above load cells for applications like weigh bridge, tank/hopper weighing, testing, etc can be provided either in MS or SS.

This is a compact rail mountable module used for converting load signal to a standard 4-20 mA or 0-10 V DC signal. It operates using a 24 V DC power supply. It supports upto 4 load cells connected in parallel. A highly stable reference voltage is used for providing 10 V DC excitation and the load cell signal is amplified using a high precision amplifier. It is ideal for use as a PLC front-end for interfacing load cell signal to analog input module.

The junction box is used for connecting a number of load cells in parallel and o get a single signal output. Separate models are available for connecting 4 or 6 load cells in parallel. Provision is given for adjusting the excitation voltage fed to individual load cells for correcting corner variation. It is normally supplied in a plastic enclosure and optionally in cast aluminum enclosure.

This display unit is capable of displaying numeric data received through RS485/RS232C serial communication. It has six 7- segment display modules of required size. The data format and the communication parameters can be configured by attaching a PC keyboard to the display. Serial data provided in MODBUS protocol can also be displayed. The display unit operates using 230 V AC SMPS power supply. Customised display units for other applications can also be provided.

This is a Electronic weigh scale suitable for use in Hazardous areas. These are fitted with high speed Digital indicator enclosed in a rugged Flame-proof enclosure. Zener barriers are used for connecting to the EX approved load cell mounted in the weighing platform. Isolated digital outputs are provided as an option making them suitable for Check weighing and Filling applications. Special numeric keypads are also available as option for entering Tare weight for Check weighing.

This instrument is useful for controlling input feeding mechanisms to feed/fill required quantity of material into a tank/hopper/bag. A maximum of 6 material can be batched using this controller, each with coarse/fine feeding. Four opto-isolated digital inputs are provided for controlling the batching process. A high resolution and high speed ADC is used for digitizing the load cell signal and 5000 external counts are provided. RS485 serial communication is provided for interfacing to PC. The instrument operates using 230 V AC SMPS based power supply. All control outputs provided are open collector type and external relays are required for operating feeders. Firmware is provided for calibrating the instrument, for entering the setpoints and other batching parameters, for displaying the cumulative batching data and for communicating with a PC. All batching parameters can also be downloaded directly from the PC and every batch can be monitored and stored in the PC. The PC software is also available as an option.

This is a rugged and elegant weighing machine suitable for use in public places. The capacity of the machine is 150 kgs. A fool-proof coin mechanism is fitted to the machine for inserting the coin and a secured coin storage is provided inside the machine. On inserting a coin the machine displays the weight of the person standing on the platform. The coin storage is protected with dual locks making it easy for operating it on partnership basis. A choice of 1 rupee or 2 rupee or 5 rupee coin is available. A thermal printer for printing a weigh ticket in regional language is also available as an option.  

Batch recipes are stored in a central PC. The production schedule is also created in the PC on a daily basis. A number of front-end terminals are networked to the PC through RS485 serial communication. Each terminal is linked to one or more weigh scales through serial interface. Depending on the item to be produced, the terminal shows the next raw material to be added and the quantity to be added. The operator has to add the particular raw material as per the displayed quantity and then register the weight. If the raw material weight is not within tolerance then error messages are displayed accordingly. Once the weight is within tolerance the data is recorded in the PC and the next raw material to be weighed is displayed. In case more than one weigh scale is connected to the terminal then the weighscale to be used for the current weighment is also indicated by the terminal. Once all the items in the recipe are weighed the message "Batch Over" is displayed. To ensure that the right material is added, additional features like Bar code identification, Bin locking arrangement and Visual indication of over / under weighment are also available. Batch wise mixing report and Raw material consumption report can be generated based on collected data. System very useful for traceability purpose and also for tracking the exact raw material consumption. Wherever manual mixing of various raw materials in pre-defined quantities are required Batch supervision systems are useful. System finds its application in Brake Linings, Pharma, Food, Aromatic and Detergent industries.
