Automation with integral weighing and batching technology • Flexibility
In addition to the accuracy when weighing and proportioning, • Standardization
incorporation of weighing technology into modern automation sys­
tems serves to increase the sustained success of a company.

Requirements on scales in industrial processes


The weighing and proportioning system is of significant importance
in many industrial processes, where many different weighing tasks
have to be handled. Both programmable controllers (PLC) and pro­
cess control systems (PCS) are used to automate production pro­
cesses.
There are many different types of scales that work together with
automation systems, depending on requirements.
Production automation places the following demands on weighing
technology:
• Flexibility with respect to typical scale functions
• Simple expansion of the weighing system
• Adaptability to the automation task, and
• Integrated communications concept
Scales that are able to satisfy these demands can be classified as
part of the automation system. In this sense, the scale is an intelli­

nal conditioning, A/D conversion and preprocessing, as well as
open-loop and closed-loop control functions. The task means that
the weighing signals must be resolved in up to 16 million digitiza­
tion steps. During proportioning and filling, material flows must
be controlled over binary scale signals with a time resolution of up
to less than one millisecond.
• A whole range of other application-specific functions are also
required to perform the overall task. It is therefore essential to
take into account the complete value chain in the production pro­
cess. These might include the automatic filling of supply hoppers
or the unloading of the final product - so that a system is required

integrated in the total automation solution. The aforementioned
total compatibility means that the standard automation functions
and the weighing functions combine to form an homogeneous
entity for the user. The demands for uniformity, ease of use and
flexibility on the basis of existing standards are fulfilled.
• This solution means that the component architecture can be cent­

ponents are integrated into the scale, the weighing system is eas­
ily transformed into an autonomous "field device", connected to
the automation technology through the open PROFIBUS or

The ET 200 I/O device is designed as a modular system. The weigh­
ing electronics are selected from the module catalog and placed in
the rack of the modular I/O station. The software addresses the
weighing electronics as if they were modules plugged into the cent­
ral controller of an automation system.
By using standard hardware (SIMATIC components) and standard
software (STEP 7/TIA Portal), freely programmable, modular weigh­
ing systems are available which can be inexpensively adapted to
specific plant requirements, e.g. by means of:
• Additional SIMATIC digital outputs for controlling a mixer, heater,
agitator, etc.
• Additional functions implemented in STEP 7 for determining and
controlling the material flow or for correcting the setpoint based
on material moisture.
The advantages of direct integration at a glance:
• Low-cost system integration because no additional coupling mod­
ules are required
• Low configuration costs due to the integrated system design

High plant availability – to ensure that production does not


come to a halt
Apart from the advantage that configuration know-how is only
required for a single system, there are also enormous advantages in
terms of plant availability.
In the SIMATIC S7, for example, faults (measuring range exceeded,
proportioning fault, sensor fault, etc.) are reported to the automa­
tion system via diagnostic interrupts without the need to input a
single line of programming code.
Error messages from the weighing electronics are automatically
transferred to the automation system. The diagnostic information
enables easy location of the module from which the message ori­
ginated.
Additional diagnostic options are available when the load cells are
connected via SIWAREX DB. The single channel monitoring that is
thus possible identifies wire breaks, impedances and the current
utilization of each and every load cell in a targeted manner.
Using a programmer or the plant visualization, operating personnel
are then able to localize the error, display its cause and, if neces­
sary, replace the defective module.
A replaced module is automatically detected by the automation sys­
tem. Thanks to the transparent data management, the scales para­
meters saved in the automation system can then be transferred to
the new weighing electronics. The scales are immediately available
again for weighing tasks – no need to readjust with control weights
(except applications requiring official calibration).
Since SIWAREX weighing systems are comprised solely of standard
components (e.g. SIWAREX weighing modules, SIMATIC digital
input/outputs, etc.), spare parts inventories are very easy to handle.

Platform and hopper scales

Weighing silos, vessels or platforms is a standard task in industry.


The comprehensive SIWAREX electronics properties and functions
can fulfil all requirements.

Platform scales
In the various branches of industry the use of platform scales is
bound to very different requirements, in particular with regard to
the load classes.
While platform scales are also used for small loads, road vehicle and
track scales are especially suited for heavy loads.

Hopper scales
In almost every industry, liquids, powders, bulk goods or gases are
produced and stored in funnels or vessels. To ensure their availabil­
ity, the exact fill levels of these vessels must be known.

Plattform and hopper scales / TM SIWAREX WP521 ST and WP522 ST weighing electronics

Overview Application

SIWAREX WP521 ST and WP522 ST are the optimum solution for the
integration of non-automatic scales, such as platform or hopper
scales, into the SIMATIC S7-1500 automation environment. The two
modules have the basic weighing functions: zeroing, taring and tare
specification. Three limit values can also be freely defined and, if
required, also output via the digital outputs. All further available
status information can also be flexibly linked to the outputs. The
digital inputs can be used for the direct wiring of pushbuttons, for
example. All weighing functions (e.g. zeroing) can be freely and
flexibly assigned to each input.

Design

SIWAREX WP521 ST and WP522 ST are technology modules of the


SIMATIC S7-1500 Advanced Controller family and therefore commu­
nicate directly with the SIMATIC S7-1500 controller via the system
bus. Additional expensive communication cards are therefore not

Plattform and hopper scales / SIWAREX WP231 weighing electronics

Overview Design

SIWAREX WP231 is a compact technology module in the SIMAT­


IC S7-1200 and can be connected directly via the system bus with
S7-1200 components. The rail mounting of the 70 mm (2.76 inch)
wide weighing module means that it is extremely easy to
mount/wire.
The power supply, load cells, the RS 485, digital input/outputs and
the analog output are connected via the screw connector of the
weighing module. An RJ45 plug is used for the Ethernet connection.

Function

The primary task of SIWAREX WP231 is the measurement and con­


version of sensor voltage into a weight value. Up to three interpola­
tion points are used for the weight calculation. The signal can also
be digitally filtered if required.

Weighing functions
There are commands available for zeroing and taring. Up to three
different tare default values can be activated for this.

It is also extremely helpful to analyze the diagnostics buffer which


can be saved together with the parameters from the module in a
backup file.
Trace mode is provided to optimize the weighing sequences in the
SIWAREX WP231 weighing module. The recorded weight values and
associated states can be displayed as trends using SIWATOOL V7
and MS Excel.

Upgrading firmware
An additional program function can be used to download a new
firmware version onto the SIWAREX WP231 on site. This means that
firmware upgrades can be carried out on site as required anywhere
in the world.

Plattform and hopper scales / SIWAREX U weighing electronics
SIWAREX for SIMATIC
Plattform and hopper scales / SIWAREX U weighing electronics

Overview Function

SIWAREX U is available with either one or two measuring channels.


One measuring channel is required for each set of scales.
The primary task of SIWAREX U is the measurement of sensor
voltage and the conversion of this measurement into a weight
value. The signal can also be digitally filtered if required.
As well as determining weights, the SIWAREX U monitors two freely
programmable limits (min./max. as required).
The SIWAREX U comes factory-calibrated. This means that theoretic­
al adjustment of the scale is possible without adjustment weights,
and that modules can be replaced without the need to readjust the
scale. When using "active bus modules", replacement is also pos­
sible during operation.
Consistent and uniform communication between all system com­
ponents enables fast, reliable and cost-effective integration and dia­
gnosis in industrial processes.
The SIWAREX U has two serial interfaces. The TTY interface serves to
connect up to four digital remote displays. In addition to the two
weight values of weighing channels 1 and 2, another two values
can be set via SIMATIC and indicated on the remote displays.
SIWAREX U is a versatile weighing module for all simple weighing A PC for adjusting the scale can be connected through the RS 232

Dosing, filling, bagging and checking scales / SIWAREX WP251 weighing electronics

Overview Design

SIWAREX WP251 is a compact technology module in the SIMAT­


IC S7-1200, and communicates directly via the system bus with the
SIMATIC S7-1200 controller.
The compact weighing module has a width of 70 mm (2.76 inch)
and is installed using a DIN rail. This is extremely user-friendly.
The connections for the power supply, load cells, RS 485 interface,
digital inputs/outputs, and the analog outputs are located on
removable screw connector blocks. An RJ45 port is available for the
Ethernet connection (SIWATOOL and Modbus TCP/IP).

Function

SIWAREX WP251 controls dosing and filling processes completely


autonomously. The dosing valves (coarse/fine flow) can be con­
trolled directly via the four digital outputs of the module. This
achieves maximum accuracy since the weighing process is con­
trolled completely independently of the CPU and its cycle time.
The CPU can be used to manage recipes and material parameters.
These parameters and the desired setpoint are then transferred to
SIWAREX WP251 is a flexible weighing module for dosing and filling SIWAREX WP251 by function block, and the dosing process is star­

SIWAREX for SIMATIC
Dosing, filling, bagging and checking scales / SIWAREX FTA weighing electronics

Overview Application

The SIWAREX FTA weighing module is the optimum solution


wherever high demands are placed on accuracy and speed.
Thanks to its outstanding measuring properties, weights can be
measured with extreme accuracy in up to three ranges.
SIWAREX FTA can be used to design legal-for-trade dosing systems,
such as filling plants, loading stations, bagging stations, rotopack­
ers, mixers or test stations.
Typical fields of application include:
• Filling of liquids
• Bagging of solid matter (also big bag)
• Proportioning as deduction weighing or fill weighing
• Checking of individual quantities
• Loading or receiving of materials
• Static checking scale
• Check weigher (in combination with Wipotec load cells)

Design
SIWAREX FTA (Flexible Technology, Automatic Weighing Instru­
ment) is a versatile and flexible weighing module for industrial use. SIWAREX FTA is a function module of SIMATIC S7-300 which can be

the scale. When using "active bus modules", replacement is also


possible during operation.

Integration in SIMATIC
SIWAREX FTA is completely integrated into the SIMATIC S7 and
SIMATIC PCS 7. Users can freely configure their automation solution
– including the weighing application.
The right combination of SIMATIC components can produce optim­
um solutions for small, medium-size and large plants. The scales are
operated and monitored using SIMATIC standard operator panels.
Needless to say, these operator panels can also be simultaneously
used for the operator control and monitoring of the plant.
Customized or sector-specific solutions can be developed extremely
quickly using the configuration package and example applications
for SIMATIC. The following Figure shows a typical configuration of a
medium-size plant.
The ready-to-use function blocks for the automation system and the
faceplates for the operator station are used for the configuration in
SIMATIC PCS 7.

Overview

Belt scales

The gravel, cement, coal, recycling and mining industries require


exact weight measurement of the material to be conveyed using
belt scales. The comprehensive SIWAREX electronics properties and
functions can fulfil all requirements.
The Milltronics belt scales from Siemens combine simple installation
and low maintenance costs (no moving parts) with higher reprodu­
cibility. This results in high productivity. With minimum hysteresis
and maximum linearity, lateral forces have no influence on measur­
ing accuracy. All load cells are equipped with overload protection.
The installation of belt scales in danger zones is also available as
option. Various versions are available for high accuracy, small loads
and heavy loads.

Overview Design

The SIWAREX WP341 is a technology module of the SIMAT­


IC ET 200SP distributed I/O system.
Installation is on a type U0 BaseUnit. The load cells, serial RS 485
interface and digital inputs/outputs are wired directly on the
BaseUnit with user-friendly push-in terminals. This makes is quick
and easy to replace weighing electronics without any wiring effort.
The web server is addressed via an Ethernet interface in the weigh­
ing electronics. Should more interfaces and I/O be required, they
can be added with the ET 200SP system components.

Function

The load cells of the belt scale as well as the speed sensor are dir­
ectly wired to the BaseUnit. The weighing electronics internally cal­
culates the current flow rate based on the current weight and speed
signal. Six individual totalizers are available and can be easily read
out of the weighing electronics into the connected CPU. The total­
izers are resettable by software command or alternatively by a 24 V
signal connected to one of the on board digital inputs. Different

Belt scales / SIWAREX WP241 weighing electronics

Overview Function

The primary task of the SIWAREX WP241 is to measure the speed of


the belt, to measure and convert the sensor voltage to a weight
value, and to precisely calculate the amount of material conveyed
or material flow rate.
The volume of material conveyed can be recorded in 6 totalization
memories: The accumulated totalization memory determines the
conveyed material over the entire operating time of the scale (can
only be reset by loading the factory settings). The overall total and
the four remaining totalization memories are available for use as
required. For example, for recording the daily or weekly totals.
Four different options are available for rapid commissioning:
• Automatic calibration
The calibration is calculated automatically using the load cell para­
meters entered. Only the zero point has to be calculated at the
actual plant.
• Calibration with calibration weights or test weights
Test weights are secured to the weighing equipment and the con­
veyor belt is started. The calibration values are determined while

Overview

SIWAREX FTC weighing electronics

The very demanding task of differential dosing can be mastered


without difficulty using SIWAREX FTC. The electronic weighing sys­
tem provides extensive functionalities and can be commissioned in
only 15 minutes using the auto setup function. The module auto­
matically determines the most important parameters, such as dos­
ing power, measurement time, stability and PID parameters and
saves them. The parameters are continuously optimized during
operation. The standard operator control and monitoring compon­
ents from Siemens provide options for operating and calibrating the
scales, as well as for error diagnostics.
Both single components and applications for multi-component dos­
ing can be implemented in relation to one another.

Benefits
• High metering accuracy
• High reproducibility
• Real-time signal processing
• Openness and user freedom enable individual optimization by the
company's own personnel or specialists

Automation with integral force measuring technology


In addition to accuracy when measuring force, incorporating force
measuring technology in modern automation systems is also a sig­
nificant feature.
Due to the direct connection of the force sensor to the SIMATIC-
integrated evaluation electronics, there is no need for costly, diffi­
cult-to-integrate external interface converters. In addition, the
measuring accuracy of SIMATIC-based solutions is increased enorm­
ously, because only one A/D conversion takes place before the
measured value is available in the automation system. These prop­
erties facilitate the integration of a final product test and other tests
into the SIMATIC environment.

Overview

SIWAREX IS New Generation

The Ex interface SIWAREX IS can be used for SIWAREX weighing


modules. It comprises six safety barriers and has been granted the
approvals stated in the technical data. The Ex interface must be
installed outside the potentially explosive area. It is installed inside
the control cabinet, preferably under the electronic weighing sys­
tem, and fixed using a 35 mm mounting rail.
The SIWAREX IS only interferes with the load cell signal to a very
small extent and is therefore approved for scales requiring official
calibration.
The connection is made at the front using two clamp-type plugs. A
separate screw terminal is available for connection of the equipo­
tential bonding conductor (EBC).

Function
Operating principle
The safety barriers limit current and voltage in the supply, sensor and measured signal cables of load cells that are installed in hazardous
areas.

Stand-alone platform and hopper scales

Weighing silos, vessels or platforms is a standard task in industry.


The comprehensive SIWAREX electronics properties and functions
can fulfil all requirements.

Platform scales
In the various branches of industry the use of platform scales is
bound to very different requirements, in particular with regard to
the load classes.
While platform scales can also be used for small loads, road vehicle
and track scales are especially suitable for heavy loads.

Hopper scales
In almost every industry, liquids, powders, bulk goods or gases are
produced and stored in vessels. To ensure their availability, the
exact fill levels of these vessels must be known.

Platform and hopper scales / SIWAREX WP231 weighing electronics

Overview Design

SIWAREX WP231 is a compact technology module in the SIMAT­


IC S7-1200 and can be connected directly via the system bus with
S7-1200 components. The rail mounting of the 70 mm (2.76 inch)
wide weighing module means that it is extremely easy to
mount/wire.
The power supply, load cells, the RS 485, digital input/outputs and
the analog output are connected via the screw connector of the
weighing module. An RJ45 plug is used for the Ethernet connection.

Function

The primary task of SIWAREX WP231 is the measurement and con­


version of sensor voltage into a weight value. Up to three interpola­
tion points are used for the weight calculation. The signal can also
be digitally filtered if required.

Weighing functions
There are commands available for zeroing and taring. Up to three
different tare default values can be activated for this.
SIWAREX WP231 is a versatile, legal for trade weighing module for SIWAREX WP231 is factory-calibrated. This means the scale can be
all simple weighing and force measuring tasks. The compact mod­ automatically adjusted without adjustment weights, and modules
ule is easy to install in the SIMATIC S7‑1200 automation system. It can be replaced without the need to readjust the scale.
can also be operated without a SIMATIC CPU.
Monitoring and control of the scale signals and states

Platform and hopper scales / SIWAREX WT231 weighing terminal

Overview Design

SIWAREX WT231 is a stand-alone weighing terminal based on the


tried and tested Siemens SIWAREX WP231 products and the
Siemens SIMATIC KTP 400 touch display. Along with a connection
board and a wide-range power supply, these components are prein­
stalled in a compact, stainless steel enclosure.
The enclosure can be wall mounted and has 9 cable entries, of
which 5 are equipped with cable glands at the factory. A variety of
interfaces support the integration into the plant environment.
The SIWAREX WT231 is preconfigured with the SIWAREX "Ready-for-
use" software. This means that no further commissioning is
required in SIMATIC.

Function

The primary task of SIWAREX WT231 is the measurement and con­


version of sensor voltage into a weight value. Up to three interpola­
tion points are used for the weight calculation. The signal can also
be digitally filtered if required.

Overview

Stand-alone belt scales

The gravel, cement, coal, recycling and mining industries require


exact weight measurement of the material to be conveyed using
belt scales. The comprehensive SIWAREX electronics properties and
functions can fulfil all requirements.
The Milltronics belt scales from Siemens combine simple installation
and low maintenance costs (no moving parts) with higher reprodu­
cibility. This results in high productivity. With minimum hysteresis
and maximum linearity, lateral forces have no influence on measur­
ing accuracy. All load cells are equipped with overload protection.
The installation of belt scales in danger zones is also available as
option. Various versions are available for high accuracy, small loads
and heavy loads.

Belt scales / SIWAREX WP241 weighing electronics

Overview Function

The primary task of the SIWAREX WP241 is to measure the speed of


the belt, to measure and convert the sensor voltage to a weight
value, and to precisely calculate the amount of material conveyed
or material flow rate.
The volume of material conveyed can be recorded in 6 totalization
memories: The accumulated totalization memory determines the
conveyed material over the entire operating time of the scale (can
only be reset by loading the factory settings). The overall total and
the four remaining totalization memories are available for use as
required. For example, for recording the daily or weekly totals.
Four different options are available for rapid commissioning:
• Automatic calibration
The calibration is calculated automatically using the load cell para­
meters entered. Only the zero point has to be calculated at the
actual plant.
• Calibration with calibration weights or test weights
Test weights are secured to the weighing equipment and the con­
veyor belt is started. The calibration values are determined while

Belt scales / SIWAREX WT241 weighing terminal

Overview Design

SIWAREX WT241 is a stand-alone weighing terminal based on the


tried and tested Siemens SIWAREX WP241 products and the
Siemens SIMATIC KTP 400 touch display. Supplemented with a con­
nection board and a wide-range power supply, these components
are preinstalled in a compact stainless steel enclosure. The enclos­
ure can be wall mounted and has nine cable entries, of which five
are equipped with cable glands at the factory. A variety of interfaces
support the integration into the plant environment.
The integrated connection board permits the direct connection of
the belt scales and of the speed sensor.
The SIWAREX WT241 is preconfigured with the SIWAREX "Ready for
Use" software. This means that no further commissioning is
required in SIMATIC.

Belt scales / Milltronics BW500 and BW500/L

Overview

Milltronics BW500 is a full feature integrator for use with both belt


scales and weighfeeders.
Milltronics BW500/L is an integrator for use in basic belt scale or
weighbelt applications.

Benefits
• Automatic zero and electronic span calibration
• Alarms for rate, load, speed, or diagnostic error
• On-board Modbus and optional: PROFIBUS DP, Modbus TCP/IP,
PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, and DeviceNet
• Comprehensive weighfeeder control functions
• PID control and on-line calibration with optional analog I/O card
• Differential speed detection with second speed sensor
• Moisture meter input with optional analog I/O card for calculation
of dry weight
• Inclinometer input with optional analog I/O card to compensate
for conveyor slope
• Suitable for belt scale custody approval
• Measurement Canada, OIML, MID, PAC Russia, and NTEP approved

Application

Milltronics BW500 and BW500/L operate with a belt scale and a speed sensor. Belt load and speed signals are processed for accurate flow
rate and totalized weight of bulk solids.
BW500 can take on lower level control functions traditionally handled by other devices, and it supports popular industrial communication
buses. Its proven load cell balance function eliminates matching of load cells.
The PID function may be used for rate control on shearing weighfeeders - where belt loading is constant - but can also control pre-feeding
devices. Operating in tandem with two or more weighfeeders, the BW500 may be used for ratio blending and controlling additives. Batch­
ing, load out, and alarm functions are also provided by the BW500.

SIWAREX WP251 weighing electronics

Typical requirements in many industries are high-precision mixing


and dosing, and packing and filling at high speed. The comprehens­
ive SIWAREX electronics properties and functions can fulfil all
requirements.
The dosing process used in production operations depends on a
variety of factors: Depending on the type and quantity of materials
weighed, different dosing systems and weighing processes are
required. It must be possible to fill liquid or solid goods, such as
cement, quickly and precisely.

Overview Design

SIWAREX WP251 is a compact technology module in the SIMAT­


IC S7-1200, and communicates directly via the system bus with the
SIMATIC S7-1200 controller.
The compact weighing module has a width of 70 mm (2.76 inch)
and is installed using a DIN rail. This is extremely user-friendly.
The connections for the power supply, load cells, RS 485 interface,
digital inputs/outputs, and the analog outputs are located on
removable screw connector blocks. An RJ45 port is available for the
Ethernet connection (SIWATOOL and Modbus TCP/IP).

Function

SIWAREX WP251 controls dosing and filling processes completely


autonomously. The dosing valves (coarse/fine flow) can be con­
trolled directly via the four digital outputs of the module. This
achieves maximum accuracy since the weighing process is con­
trolled completely independently of the CPU and its cycle time.
The CPU can be used to manage recipes and material parameters.
These parameters and the desired setpoint are then transferred to

Overview

Milltronics SF500 is a full feature integrator for use with solids flow­


meters.

Benefits
• Automatic zero and electronic span calibration
• Alarms for rate or diagnostic error
• On-board Modbus and optional: PROFIBUS DP, PROFINET, Modbus
TCP/IP, EtherNet/IP, and DeviceNet
• On-line calibration and dual PID control with optional analog
I/O card
• Multi-point linearizer for high turn down accuracy
• Up to 8 multi-spans for application of more than one flow condi­
tion and/or material
• Moisture meter input with optional analog I/O card for calculation
of dry weight

Application

Milltronics SF500 operates with any solids flowmeter with up to


two strain gauge load cells or LVDT sensor. The SF500 processes
sensor signals for accurate flow rate and totalized weight of bulk
solids. It can take on lower level control functions traditionally
handled by other devices, and it supports popular industrial com­
munication buses. Its proven load cell balance function eliminates
matching of load cells.
The PID function may be used for rate control of pre-feeding devices
and/or control of additives with two internal PID controllers. Operat­
ing in tandem with two or more solids flowmeters or weighfeeders,
the SF500 may be used for ratio blending and controlling additives.
Batching, load out, and alarm functions are also provided by the
SF500.

Overview

Configuration software for easy integration


For fast, simple integration of our weighing modules, we offer con­
figuration packages for the SIMATIC S7 automation system and the
SIMATIC PCS 7 process control system.
As well as the operating tools, both PCS 7 faceplates and function
blocks make the commissioning and control of the SIWAREX weigh­
ing electronics as easy and convenient as conceivably possible.

Tools and add-ons for Siemens weighing components


Our configuration packages enable straightforward data exchange
between the SIMATIC S7 or SIMATIC PCS 7 automation system and
our weighing modules. Integrated signaling behavior and mainten­
ance functions such as the reading or writing of all weighing para­
meters enable high plant availability and correspondingly low
downtimes.

Overview

Level, proportioning, belt, and loss-in-weight scales in process


engineering applications can be quickly and efficiently configured
using pre-configured weighing blocks. The uniform design of the
SIWAREX weighing controllers matching that of SIMATIC ET 200M
or ET 200SP also enables easy and consistent wiring in the control
cabinet.
For the SIMATIC PCS 7 process control system, Siemens offers the
SIWAREX PCS 7 AddOn Library with function blocks for the
SIWAREX U, SIWAREX FTA, SIWAREX FTC and SIWAREX WP321
weighing controllers. These weighing blocks are suitable for both
standard and fault-tolerant automation systems. In high-availability
automation systems, the singularly installed SIWAREX
U/FTA/FTC/WP321 can be accessed via both subsystems.
The weighing blocks supplied with the faceplate not only allow the
rational integration of the SIWAREX U/FTA/FTC/WP321 weighing
controllers into the engineering system, they also enable user-
friendly operation and commissioning of the scales via the SIMAT­
IC PCS 7 operator stations. Integrated signaling behavior and main­
tenance functions such as the reading or writing of all scale para­
meters ensure short standstill times and help to increase the avail­
ability.
The pixel-graphics engineering with the CFC editor is very clear and
easy to use. The use of prepared blocks also eliminates possible
sources of errors and reduces the configuration costs.
The SIWAREX PCS 7 AddOn Library also supports communication via
PROFINET.
Note:
The function blocks and faceplates for the weighing controllers can
be used together with SIMATIC PCS 7 V8.x and V9.0.
For SIMATIC PCS 7 V8.x, configuration packages are still available in
the style of the PCS 7 Standard Library for SIWAREX U and SIWAREX
FTA.

SIWATOOL

Overview

SIWATOOL is a service software tool which enables you to calibrate


the module quickly and efficiently on site, set or reset parameters,
and perform diagnostics in the event of a fault. Furthermore, com­
plete backup files can be created for the scales before module
replacement. These can be uploaded to the new module with a few
mouse clicks, so that it operates exactly the same as at the point of
backup of the old module without the need for any recalibration. It
is even possible to upload configuration files that were created off­
line and to read out the error buffer. No special SIMATIC knowledge
is required to use SIWATOOL.

Benefits
• No special SIMATIC knowledge is required
• Fast adjustment and definition of parameters

system, for example, and retrieved again with our SITRANS Store IQ
app, for example. Of course, you can also connect higher-level
office business systems or individual applications for monitoring fill

route planning.
The actual interface to the cloud is provided by our SIMAT­
IC IOT2000 gateway family. The SIMATIC IOT2000 SG-Shield is
simply plugged into the device, the necessary software image is
loaded onto the Micro SD Card, and your connection to the Internet
of Things is already established.
Thanks to integrated open source (Node-RED for connecting IoT
components), the measured values do not remain trapped in a
closed system, but can also be integrated into any manufacturer-
independent system with little programming effort. This offers the
user maximum flexibility and openness.
For the OEM sector we have a special variant, which is equipped
with an RS 485 interface.

Introduction

Overview

Siemens offers load cells in the SIWAREX WL200 series. All load cells are equipped with strain gauges. They are used for static and dynamic
weight measurements.
The wide range of different designs available enables SIWAREX load cells to be used in a variety of applications: from single point load cells
to bending and shear beams, up to S-type, compression and ring-torsion load cells.
The different load cell series cover rated load ranges from 0.3 kg (0.66 lb) to 500 t (492.10 tn. l.).
The variety of modules available and their characteristics, including:
• predominantly stainless steel for high anti-corrosion protection
• predominantly hermetically sealed housing enabling use even in hostile or corrosive environments
• compact frame sizes for easy installation
make SIWAREX load cells suitable for virtually all applications in industrial weighing, e.g. hopper scales and bin weighing equipment, plat­
form scales, vehicle scales, hybrid weighing machines etc.
Almost all series have been approved for use with Class III weighing machines requiring official calibration in accordance with EN 45501 and
conform to OIML R60.
Of course, load cells can also be supplied for other rated loads, higher accuracy, and/or Ex approval, depending on requirements.

Design Design (Continued)

Load cells are sensors that convert a mechanical variable


(i.e. weight) into an electrical signal, usually a voltage. EXC+
They work according to different measuring principles. Siemens
SIWAREX WL200 load cells utilize so-called strain gauges. These are SENSE+
specially formed electrical conductors which are insulated by means
SG SG
of a suitable material. The strain gauges are attached to the basic stretched compressed
element, a specially formed spring body, by friction locking.
Under the influence of a weight force F, the spring body is
deformed (see schematic presentation) and as a result the strain
gauge deforms elastically. Due to the change in the external shape
of the strain gauge, the ohmic resistance of its conductor also SG SG
changes. The top left and bottom right strain gauges are com­ compressed stretched
pressed, their resistance films are shortened and the ohmic resist­
ance is reduced accordingly. The top right and bottom left strain SENSE-
gauges are stretched, their resistance films are extended and the EXC-
ohmic resistance is increased.

G_WT01_XX_10091
For each load cell, at least four strain gauges are connected togeth­
er to form a complete Wheatstone bridge. The stretched or com­
pressed strain gauges are connected so that the positive or negative
resistance changes are added together to form a total imbalance in SIG- SIG+
the bridge.
On one bridge diagonal, the power voltage is applied (with 6-con­
ductor technique, also the sensor voltage, SENSE) and on the other Principle of a Wheatstone bridge
diagonal, the measured voltage is tapped.
With a constant power voltage (EXC), the measured voltage (SIG)
changes proportionally to the introduced load.

Overview

The use of SIWAREX WL200 installation accessories avoids incorrect


loading such as eccentric load introduction, torsion torques etc. on
the load cells. enables full exploitation of the measuring accuracy of
the load cells.
The standardized SIWAREX WL200 installation components are
always coordinated precisely to the requirements of the respective
load cell design. This ensures that the force to be measured is direc­
ted to the load cells in the best possible way.
At the same time the mounting elements simplify the installation of
the load cells and increase safety during installation work. The wide
variety of mounting components permits implementation of all key
applications used with industrial weighing technology. In addition
to the mounting components listed below, a wide range of special
accessories is available for special requirements.

Bending beam load cells
SIWAREX WL230 BB-S SA Load cell

Overview

The bending beam load cell is particularly suitable for use in small
hopper and platform scales.

Design

The measuring element is a double bending beam made of stainless


steel to which 4 strain gauges are applied.
The strain gauges are arranged so that two are stretched and two
are compressed.
Under the influence of the load acting in the measuring direction,
the spring bodies and therefore the friction-locked strain gauges are
elastically deformed. This generates a measuring signal voltage that
is proportional to the load.

The self-centering elastomer bearing for load cells of the


SIWAREX WL230 BB-S SA series is the ideal load introduction ele­
ment for scales without guide elements. It serves to damp vibra­
tions and shocks.

Design

Elastomer bearings are rubber-metal composites made of neoprene


and stainless steel. They ensure large spring excursions (i.e. a high
degree of damping) despite small dimensions.
If the load bearing implement is displaced by more than 4 mm
(0.16 inch) in the horizontal direction, measures for restricting side­
ways play (e.g. in the form of guide elements) must be provided in
the construction of the load bearing implement.
In combination with the base plate and integral overload protec­
tion, it is ensured that the load cell is not damaged by static over­
loading with vertical forces of up to 5 kN.
The load cell and the base plate are not included in the scope of
delivery of the elastomer bearing.

SIWAREX WL230 SB-S SA Load cell

Overview

The shear beam load cell is particularly suitable for use in hopper,
overhead rail and platform scales.

Design

The measuring element is a shear tension spring made of stainless


steel to which the strain gauges are applied. The strain gauges are
arranged at 45° to the longitudinal axis on the side of the spring
body and are therefore subject to shear forces. Under the influence
of the load acting in the measuring direction, the spring bodies and
therefore the friction-locked strain gauges are elastically deformed.
This generates a measuring signal voltage that is proportional to the
load.

Overview Design (Continued)


Shim
Shims are used to compensate for angular errors and delays in the
lug plates. If more than three load cells are used, the shims are also
used to adjust the height of the lugs.

The self-centering mounting unit for SIWAREX WL230 SB-S SA load


cells is particularly suitable for implementation in container, plat­
form and roller conveyor scales.

Design

The mounting unit comprises a base plate and a top plate, a pendu­
lum bolt and two countersunk screws. Mounting unit with guide element, rear view
A highly flexible grounding cable between the top and base plate
conducts any fault currents past the load cell. On both sides of the
base and top plate there are threaded holes for the later flange-fit­
ting of guide elements.
The top plate is aligned and fixed above the base plate with the two
countersunk screws. This results in a stable unit. The height of the
top plate is adjusted so that it is three millimeters above the installa­
tion height with load cell.
In this state, the mounting unit serves as an installation aid and can
be used as a dummy for light installation jobs.
The load cell is inserted with the pendulum bolt into the mounting
unit. The load cell can be inserted in the scale before mounting the
mounting unit. It is also possible to insert the load cell in the
mounting unit after mounting. After the mounting unit has been
mounted in the scale, the load bearing implement is ideally aligned.
The load cells are not yet loaded.
Finally, the load bearing implement is lowered by loosening the two
hexagon nuts under the top plate. The weight now rests on the load
cells.
In this state the load cell and the pressure pieces together form a
self-centering unit. The mounting unit permits sideways displace­
ment of the top plate, and hence of the load bearing implement, by
up to three millimeters.
The countersunk head screws prevent the load bearing implement
from being lifted off or tipping.
Using the mounting unit as an installation aid results in optimum
alignment of the load cells. This is essential to enable the load cells
to perform at their best in terms of accuracy. For maintenance or
troubleshooting purposes, the load cell can be relieved again by
tightening the hexagon nuts. After loosening the fixing screws, it
can be replaced easily.
Guide element
Guide elements are used if the lateral movement of a load bearing
implement is to be prevented.
Lateral motions may be associated with the following factors: Start-
up of an agitator in a container, braking or acceleration forces of a
roller conveyor, or wind forces in the case of outdoor silos.
A guide element consists of two flanges and one clamping screw.
The clamping screw is adjusted to the correct length. The guide ele­
ment is attached to the operational mounting unit. A guide element
can be mounted on the front or rear of the mounting unit. If neces­
sary, two guide elements can be used in parallel in order to double
the transferrable lateral force.
In the case of scales with four load cells, only three mounting units
may be equipped with guide elements.

Shear beam load cells
SIWAREX WL230 SB-S SA Base plate with elastomer bearing

Overview

The base plate and the elastomer bearing form a self-centering


bearing unit together with the load cells of the SIWAREX WL230 SB-
S SA series. It suppresses oscillations and shocks to a certain extent.

Design

Elastomer bearings are rubber-metal composites made of neoprene


and stainless steel. Their special design means that lateral move­
ment of the load bearing implement does not result in high trans­
verse force on the load cell.
If the load bearing implement is displaced by more than 4 mm
(0.16 inch) in the horizontal direction, measures for restricting side­
ways play (e.g. stops) must be provided in the construction of the
load bearing implement.
The base plate of stainless steel is used for suitable fixing of the
load cell on the base.
The load cell is not included in the scope of delivery of the base
plate or elastomer bearing.

Overview

Load foot for SIWAREX WL230 SB-S SA load cells

This self-aligning load foot for SIWAREX WL230 SB-S SA load cells


can be used for the quick and easy construction of platform and
hopper scales.
The load foot transmits the force directly into the load cell.
The load foot is designed for rated load cell ranges from 500 kg to
5 t (0.49 ... 4.92 tn. l.).

Design

Height compensation is possible using the screw thread.


Together with the pressure piece which is screwed into the load
cell, this facilitates an oscillation function which prevents stresses in
the load cells. Stresses can arise during installation or when the
length of the load bearing implement changes due to thermal
expansion.
The rubber cap prevents the load foot from slipping.

Overview

The SIWAREX WL230 SB-S CA shear beam load cell is made of spe­
cial nickel-plated steel. The 100 kg (220.46 lb) and 250 kg
(551.16 lb) load classes are implemented as bending beams.
The WL230 SB-S CA load cells are especially suited for platform
scales and hopper scales where it is easy to introduce the load into
the load cell by means of an adjustable foot. The load cell is avail­
able in rated loads from 100 kg to 10 t (220.46 lb ...0.98 tn l.). This
means that scales with multiple weighing ranges can be equipped
with a single cell type.
The load cells are legal-for-trade according to OIML R60. They are
available in accuracy classes C3, C4 and 5.

Design

The measuring element is a spring body made of special steel. Due


to the galvanic coating of nickel and the IP67 degree of protection it
is suitable for use in harsh environments.

Overview

The SIWAREX WL290 DB-S CA double shear beam load cell is made


of nickel-plated specialty steel.
WL290 DB-S CA load cells are especially suited for large platform
and hopper scales. A special mounting unit makes them particularly
suitable for assembling scales in vehicles. The double shear beam
load cell is installed without oscillation or elastomer force-transmit­
ting mechanisms since transverse forces do not result in the other­
wise usual oscillating or deflection effects in the load cell.
The load cells are legal-for-trade according to OIML R60. They are
available in accuracy class C3.

Design

The measuring element is a spring body made of special steel. Due


to the galvanic coating of nickel and the IP67 degree of protection it
is suitable for use in harsh environments.

Overview

Silo mounting unit for SIWAREX WL290 DB-S CA load cells

This self-centering mounting unit for SIWAREX WL290 DB-S CA load


cells is particularly suitable for implementation in hopper, platform,
vehicle and roller conveyor scales. It was specially developed for
installation in silos.
The mounting unit transmits the force directly into the load cell and
is designed for load cell rated loads from 2.3 t to 113 t.

Design

It comprises a base plate onto which the load cell is attached with
the help of a support and two screws, and a top plate which
ensures the force is directed into the load cell. A highly flexible
grounding cable between the top and base plate conducts any fault
currents past the load cell. Specially designed blocks fix the top
plate over the base plate. In this state, the mounting unit serves as
an installation aid and can be used as a dummy for light installation
jobs. The load cell can be inserted in the scale before mounting the
mounting unit. It is also possible to insert the load cell in the
mounting unit after mounting.
After the mounting unit has been mounted in the scale, the load
bearing implement is ideally aligned. The load cells are not yet
loaded.
The weight only rests on the load cells once the dummy blocks have
been removed. The dummy blocks can be mounted onto the base
plate to limit the pendulum movements. This also means they are
safely stored for later use in servicing jobs.
Together with the load cell, the mounting unit ensures lift-off pro­
tection.
Another benefit is that the mounting unit and load cell adapt to the
circumstances during thermal expansion.

The mounting unit for the SIWAREX WL290 DB-S CA load cells
makes setting up platform and hopper scales easy and safe. Since
Mounting unit for SIWAREX WL290 DB-S CA load cell, dimensions in mm
the load cell is securely bolted onto the bearing plates, it is particu­
larly suitable for use in scales in vehicles. The mounting unit trans­
mits the force directly into the load cell and absorbs any lateral and
lifting forces which occur. The mounting unit covers load cell rated
loads from 13.6 to 34 t (13.39 to 33.46 tn. l.).

Design

The load cell is bolted onto the bearing plates. By using a two-part
bearing collar, the load bearing implement is also firmly connected
to the load cell and without play. The bearing collar transfers the
weight force centered into the load cell.
Since all connections are tight, possible acceleration forces, caused
for example by a container on a vehicle, are directed to the chassis
from the load cell and mounting unit. Additional latching mechan­
isms are not required. Due to the zero play mounting of the load
cell no wear can occur, making any maintenance measures super­
fluous.

Compression load cells
SIWAREX WL270 CP-S SA Load cell

Overview

The compression load cell is particularly suitable for implementation


in hopper scales, bin weighing equipment and vehicle scales.

Design

The measuring element is a solid cylinder made of stainless steel to


which 4 strain gauges are applied.
The load which acts centrally in the measuring direction causes the
spring bodies and therefore the friction-locked strain gauges to be
elastically deformed. This generates a measuring signal voltage that
is proportional to the load.

SIWAREX WL270 CP-S SA Mounting unit with guide element
Compression load cells
SIWAREX WL270 CP-S SA Mounting unit with guide element

Overview Design (Continued)

A guide element consists of two flanges and one clamping screw.


The clamping screw is adjusted to the correct length. The guide ele­
ment is attached to the operational mounting unit. A guide element
can be mounted on the front or rear of the mounting unit. If neces­
sary, two guide elements can be used in parallel in order to double
the transferrable lateral force.
In the case of scales with four load cells, only three mounting units
may be equipped with guide elements.
Shims are used to compensate for angular errors and delays in the
lug plates. If more than three load cells are used, the shims are also
used to adjust the height of the lugs.

The self-centering installation unit for SIWAREX WL270 CP-S SA load


cells is particularly suitable for implementation in container, plat­
form, vehicle and roller table scales. The guide elements prevent
containers, for example, from moving sideways due to an external
lateral force. The guide elements can be mounted on one or both
sides of the compact installation unit.

Design

The mounting unit comprises a base plate and a top plate, two pres­
sure pieces and two countersunk screws. A highly flexible ground­
ing cable between the top and base plate conducts any fault cur­
rents past the load cell. On both sides of the base and top plate
there are threaded holes for the later flange-fitting of guide ele­
ments.
The top plate is aligned and fixed above the base plate with the two
countersunk screws. This results in a stable unit. The height of the
top plate is adjusted so that it is three millimeters above the installa­
tion height with load cell.
In this state, the mounting unit serves as an installation aid and can
be used as a dummy for light installation jobs.
The load cell can be inserted into the mounting unit together with
the two pressure pieces. Load cell and pressure piece are secured
with clamping washers.
The load cell can be inserted in the scale before mounting the
mounting unit. It is also possible to insert the load cell in the
mounting unit after mounting.
After the mounting unit has been mounted in the scale, the load
bearing implement is ideally aligned. The load cells are not yet
loaded.
Finally, the load bearing implement is lowered by loosening the two
hexagon nuts under the top plate. The weight now rests on the load
cells.
In this state the load cell and the pressure pieces together form a
self-centering unit. The mounting unit permits sideways displace­
ment of the top plate, and hence of the load bearing implement, by
up to three millimeters in all directions. The countersunk head
screws prevent the load bearing implement from being lifted off or
tipping.
Using the mounting unit as an installation aid results in optimum
alignment of the load cells. This is essential to enable the load cells
to perform at their best in terms of accuracy.
For maintenance or troubleshooting purposes, the load cell can be
relieved again by tightening the hexagon nuts. After loosening the
clamping washers, it can then easily be replaced.
Guide elements are used if the lateral movement of a load bearing
implement is to be prevented. Lateral movements can be initiated
by agitator start-up in a container, by braking or accelerating forces
in a roller conveyor, or though forces exerted by the wind on out­
door silos.

SIWAREX WL270 CP-S SA Pressure piece set with adapter plates

Overview

In combination with a pressure piece set and adapter plate, the


SIWAREX WL270 CP-S SA load cell produces a self-aligning bearing.
This unit is particularly suitable for installation in hopper scales, bin
weighing equipment and vehicle scales.

Design

The pressure piece set consists of an upper and lower pressure


piece. Together with the load cell the pressure piece set forms a
self-centering unit with integrated torsion guard. Two adapter
plates serve to hold the pressure pieces and complete the unit to
form a self-aligning bearing. The adapter plates can be screwed dir­
ectly to the load bearing implement using the existing holes.
The self-centering, self-aligning bearing thus formed allows the
load bearing element to follow horizontal displacements (e.g. due
to temperature fluctuations) In this case the construction of the
self-aligning bearing creates a restoring force which is dependent
on the size of the displacement and the applied load.
If the load bearing implement is displaced by more than 3 mm in
the horizontal direction, measures for restricting sideways play (e.g.
in the form of endstops or guide elements) must be provided in the
construction of the load bearing implement. Lifting of the load sup­
port must be prevented by suitable measures provided in the con­
struction of the load bearing implement.
The load cell must be ordered separately.
The delivery unit of the adapter plate consists of one unit.

Overview

The compression load cell is particularly suitable for implementation


in hopper scales, bin weighing equipment and vehicle scales.

Design

The measuring element is a solid cylinder made of stainless steel to


which 4 strain gauges are applied.
The load which acts centrally in the measuring direction causes the
spring bodies and therefore the friction-locked strain gauges to be
elastically deformed. This generates a measuring signal voltage that
is proportional to the load.

cells is particularly suitable for implementation in container scales.

Design

The mounting unit comprises a base plate and a top plate, two pres­
sure pieces, two clamping pieces and two centering sleeves. There
are threaded holes in the base plate and top plate for the sub­
sequent flange-fitting of guide elements.
The top plate is aligned and fixed above the base plate with the two
centering sleeves. This results in a stable unit. The height of the top
plate is adjusted so that it is five millimeters above the installation
height with load cell.
Two pressure pieces are used to mount the load cell. They are
fastened flush with the head plate and base plate using the clamp­
ing pieces.
In this state, the mounting unit serves as an installation aid and can
be used as a dummy for light installation jobs.
Prior to installation, the load cell is inserted into the mounting unit.
Then the complete unit is installed in the scales. As a result, the
load bearing implement and the mounting units are aligned. The
load cells are not yet loaded.
Finally, the load bearing implement is lowered by loosening the two
hexagon nuts under the centering sleeves. The weight now rests on
the load cells.
In this state the load cell and the pressure pieces together form a
self-centering unit. The mounting unit permits sideways displace­
ment of the top plate, and hence of the load bearing implement, by
up to eight millimeters in all directions. Two countersunk screws
prevent the load bearing implement from being lifted off or top­
pling off.
Using the mounting unit as an installation aid results in optimum
alignment of the load cells. This is essential to enable the load cells
to perform at their best in terms of accuracy.
For maintenance or troubleshooting purposes, the load cell can be
relieved again by tightening the hexagon nuts. Replacement of the
load cell is then easy after the clamping pieces are released.

In combination with a pressure piece set, the SIWAREX WL270 CP-
S SB load cell produces a self-centering self-aligning bearing. This
unit is particularly suitable for installation in hopper scales, bin
weighing equipment and vehicle scales.

Design Pressure piece for SIWAREX WL270 CP-S SB load cells, dimensions in mm


(inch)
The pressure piece set consists of an upper and lower pressure
piece. Together with the load cell the pressure piece set forms a
self-centering unit with integrated torsion guard.
The self-centering, self-aligning bearing thus formed allows the
load bearing element to follow horizontal displacements (e.g. due
to temperature fluctuations) In this case the construction of the
self-aligning bearing creates a restoring force which is dependent
on the size of the displacement and the applied load.
If the load bearing implement is displaced by more than 8 mm
(0.32 inch) in the horizontal direction, measures for restricting side­
ways play (e.g. in the form of endstops or guide elements) must be
provided in the construction of the load bearing implement. Lifting
of the load support must be prevented by suitable measures
provided in the construction of the load bearing implement.
The load cell must be ordered separately.

Overview

This compression load cell is particularly suitable for use in hopper


scales and bin weighing equipment.

Design

The measuring element is a cylinder made of steel to which 4 strain


gauges are applied.
The load which acts centrally in the measuring direction elastically
deforms the spring body and thus the force-fitted strain gauges.
This generates a measuring signal voltage that is proportional to the
load. The load cell's rated displacement path depends on the rated
load and is between 0.23 and 3.11 mm (0.01 and 0.12 in).
An enclosure made from painted steel protects the strain gauge
from environmental influences. The load cell is fitted with a heat-
resistant cable as standard.

Heavy load versions


Heavy load versions with a rated load of 350 and 500 t (344.47 and
492.10 tn. l.) are available for extreme requirements.

Option: Two measuring circuits for your plant safety


In especially sensitive applications such as cranes, enhanced safety
is required. This is also true of measurement plants. Using double
bridges in load cells achieves the equivalent of a redundant config­
uration. Both measuring bridges supply consistent measured val­
ues. If one bridge fails, the other takes over.
This option can be ordered for all load classes from 13 t
(12.79 tn. l.).

Overview

The self-centering self-aligning bearing for SIWAREX WL270 K-S CA


load cells is particularly suitable for use hopper scales and bin
weighing equipment.

Design

The self-aligning bearing comprises two pressure plates.


Together with the load cell, the pressure plates form a self-center­
ing unit. This allows the top plate, and thus the load bearing imple­
ment, to accommodate horizontal displacements (e.g. due to tem­
perature fluctuations). The design of the self-aligning bearing cre­
ates a restoring force which is dependent on the size of the dis­
placement and the applied load.
If the load bearing implement is displaced by more than value s (see
dimensional drawing table) in the horizontal direction, measures for
restricting sideways play (e.g. stops) must be provided in the con­
struction of the load bearing implement. Lifting of the load bearing
implement must be prevented by suitable measures provided in the
construction of the load bearing implement.
The load cell is not included in the scope of delivery of the self-
aligning bearing.

Heavy load versions


Suitable mounting units are also available for heavy load cells with
350 and 500 t (344.47 and 492.10 tn. l.) rated loads. These are also
designed as self-centering, self-aligning bearings.

Overview

The ring torsion load cell is particularly suitable for use in hopper,
belt, platform and roller conveyor scales.

Design

The measurement element is a ring torsion spring made of stainless


steel. Two strain gauge spirals are applied to the upper and lower
faces of the ring respectively. The spring element is deformed by
the load acting centrically in the measurement direction. This com­
presses the strain gauge of the upper face of the ring and extends
the strain gauge on the lower face of the ring. This causes a change
in the electrical resistance of the force-locked strain gauge, which is
detected by means of a bridge circuit.
All load cells with a rated load of up to 13 t (12.79 tn. l.) are
equipped with integrated overload protection.

Overview

Elastomer bearings for SIWAREX WL280 RN-S SA load cells, 60 ... 280 kg


(132.28 … 617.29 lb)

Elastomer bearing for SIWAREX WL280 RN-S SA load cells, 0.5 ... 13 t
(0.49 … 12.80 lb)

Used in combination with the self-aligning bearing base part, the


self-centering elastomer bearing for SIWAREX WL280 RN-S SA load
cells is the ideal load introduction element for scales without guide
elements. It is used in container, platform and roller table scales
and dampens vibrations and shocks.

Design

Elastomer bearings are rubber-metal composites made of neoprene


and stainless steel. They ensure large spring excursions (i.e. a high
degree of damping) despite small dimensions.
If the load bearing implement is displaced by more than 4 mm
(0.16 inch) in the horizontal direction 1), measures for restricting
sideways play (e.g. in the form of guide elements) must be
provided in the construction of the load bearing implement.
Lifting of the load support must be prevented by suitable measures
provided in the construction of the load bearing implement.

Ring torsion load cells
SIWAREX WL280 RN-S SA Mounting unit with guide element

Overview Design (Continued)

After the mounting units have been installed in the scale, the load
bearing implement is ideally aligned. The load cells are not yet
loaded. Finally, the load bearing implement is lowered by loosening
the hexagon nuts under the top plate. The weight now rests on the
load cells.
In this state, the load cell and the mounting unit together form a
self-centering bearing unit. The mounting unit allows the top plate
(and thus the load bearing implement) to be displaced up to 2 mm
(for the 60 ... 280 kg (132.28 ... 617.29 lb) versions) or 3 mm (for
the 0.5 ... 13 t (1 102.31 lb, 0.98 tn. l.) versions) to the side in all
directions. The countersunk head screws prevent the load bearing
implement from being lifted off or tipping. The countersunk head
screws secure the load bearing implement against sharp lateral
movement on the occurrence of sporadic lateral forces.
Using the mounting unit as an installation aid results in optimum
alignment of the load cells. This is essential to enable the load cells
SIWAREX WL280 RN-S SA mounting unit with guide element, front
to perform at their best in terms of accuracy. For maintenance or
troubleshooting purposes, the load cell can be relieved again by
tightening the hexagon nuts. After loosening the clamping wash­
ers, it can then easily be replaced.
Guide elements are used if the lateral movement of a load bearing
implement is to be prevented. Lateral movements can be initiated
by agitator start-up in a container, by braking or accelerating forces
in a roller conveyor, or through forces exerted by the wind on out­
door silos.
A guide element consists of two flanges and one clamping screw.
The clamping screw is adjusted to the correct length. The guide ele­
ment is attached to the operational mounting unit. A guide element
can be mounted on the front or rear of the mounting unit. If neces­
sary, two guide elements can be used in parallel in order to double
the transferrable lateral force.
In the case of scales with four load cells, only three mounting units
may be equipped with guide elements.
Shims are used to compensate for angular errors and delays in the
SIWAREX WL280 RN-S SA mounting unit with guide element, rear
lug plates. If more than three load cells are used, the shims are also
used to adjust the height of the lugs.
The mounting unit, together with the load cells of the
SIWAREX WL280 RN-S SA series, forms a self-centering unit. The
guide elements prevent containers, for example, from moving side­ Selection and ordering data
ways due to an external lateral force. The guide elements can be

Overview Design

The junction box of die-cast aluminum consists of a lower section


and cover. The enclosure is dust-protected and splashproof accord­
ing to IP66 degree of protection. The cables are fed in through met­
ric cable glands. In the enclosure, screw terminals are fixed onto a
connection board.
The internal resistance, characteristic value and rated load of all par­
allel-switched load cells must be identical. The value of these vari­
ables is not limited by the junction box. Load cells can be connected
in 4-wire or 6-wire systems.
For 6-wire systems, 2 jumpers must also be separated.

Overview

The ultra-flexible grounding cable is for discharging parasitic cur­


rents.

Design

The grounding cable is 400 mm long and is an electrical shunt.


It protects the load cell from undesired voltages such as those that
occur during welding or lightning strikes.
We recommend using one grounding cable per load cell.
The load cell and/or other mounting components are not included
in the scope of delivery of the grounding cable.

Introduction
Configuration examples
Introduction

Overview
Number of load cells
The three-point bearing is statically determined and offers a stable
setup for any application.
If there are more than three bearing points, the load is likely to be
unevenly positioned and, in extreme cases, that two diagonally
positioned load cells would have to accommodate the entire load.
Three-point bearing should therefore be used wherever possible.
To exclude the possibility of an uneven base, in the case of a bear­
ing with more than three load cells, the prevailing weight distribu­
tion on the relevant load cells should be checked and a height
adjustment performed if necessary. This can be achieved by using a
suitable support to raise the load cells which are carrying less
weight.

Force bypass
Force bypasses are produced if a partial load is transferred past the
load cells into the base.
There are various reasons for a force bypass (e.g. third-party sup­
ports, frictional forces, stresses, etc.).
Force bypasses must be avoided at all costs as they lead to measur­
ing errors.

Rated load of load cells


The rated load is selected under maximum load, taking into account
centers of gravity and load distribution on the individual load cells.
The rated load is generally selected according to the most heavily
loaded load cell. A check also needs to be performed to see if any
dynamic forces are superimposed on the static load of the load cell.
In this case, the rated load of the load cell must be calculated from
the sum of the static load and the peak dynamic force.

Example (please also refer to configuration example 1)


Even load distribution, without dynamic
influences
Number of load cells 4
Container empty weight 1.2 t (1.18 tn. l.)
Maximum capacity 1.8 t (1.77 tn. l.)
Total load 3 t (2.95 tn. l.)

The 4 load cells are each loaded with 0.75 t (0.74 tn. l.) in order to
ensure even load distribution. During configuration and selection of
load cells, approx. 20% should be added to the calculated rated load
for safety reasons. This produces a required load cell rated load of
0.75 t × 1.2 = 0.9 t (0.74 tn. l. x 1.2 = 0.89 tn. l.).
It therefore follows that it is necessary to select the next highest
rated load level, with 1 t (0.98 tn. l.).

Example 1: Container weighing


The total center of gravity S of the suspended container lies above the level of the load cells.
It is supported on 4 lugs (container manufacturer specification), has an empty weight (dead load) of 1.2 t (1.18 tn. l.), and a maximum capa­
city of 1.8 t (1.77 tn. l.). The load is evenly distributed across all 4 load cells.
Note
The three-point bearing of the container is statically determined and represents a stable state (see comment in the introduction).
Selection of load cells and mounting components
The determination of the rated load, as described in the introduction, results in a rated load of 1 t (0.98 tn. l.).
For the example above, 4 SIWAREX WL280 RN-S SA load cells were used with a rated load of 1 t (0.98 tn. l.) since the construction height of
the high-quality WL280 RN-S SA precision load cells is extremely low.
Self-centering compact mounting units are used as mounting components because, in addition to their oscillation function and oscillation
limitation, they are also fitted with anti-lift protection. The anti-lift protection can absorb a maximum vertical force of 4.2 kN. In the event of
greater lifting forces (e.g due to wind load), the container must be safeguarded with additional catastrophe protection.

Example 2: Container weighing


The combined center of gravity S of the suspended container lies below the level of the load cells.
It is mounted on 3 lugs, has an empty weight (dead load) of 1.2 t and a maximum capacity of 1.8 t. The container has a diameter of 1 m
(3.3 ft). Weighing of the individual components produces a chemical reaction that raises the temperature of the container with contents
from approx. 18 °C (64.4 °F) to approx. 55 °C (131 °F).
Selection of load cells and mounting components
We recommend using 3 SIWAREX WL280 RN-S SA load cells with a rated load of 2 t (1.97 tn. l.) (for determination of the rated load: please
refer to introduction). Due to its low constructional height, the WL280 RN-S SA load cell was selected.
Self-centering self-aligning bearings are used as mounting components as the container is suspended and cannot lift up from the self-align­
ing bearing.
The 37 K temperature rise will cause the diameter of the container to increase by 0.4 mm (0.02 inch).
The self-aligning bearing permits a maximum oscillation path of ± 4 mm (0.16 inch) and is therefore able to accommodate the temperature
expansion of the container.
An oscillation limitation is not necessary because there is a small gap of b = 3 mm (0.12 inch) between the container and the platform. In
this case, the platform acts as an oscillation limitation.
For wider gaps in other applications, either compact mounting units have to be used (instead of the self-aligning bearings) or external pen­
dulum limiters must be provided as an alternative.

precision load cell has an extremely low constructional height (for determination of rated load, please refer to introduction).
Self-centering elastomer bearings are used as the mounting components to minimize the vibrations caused by the mixer.

Installation tips
Position the scale
Locate the scale close to the tail section of the conveyor belt where
tension is minimal and more consistent. Mount the scale on rigid
mountings, away from equipment that may produce measurement
disturbing vibrations. Avoid variable tension points, transition
points, or slope change. The ideal location is a horizontal, even belt
section, but you can achieve good results on slopes if the idlers are
properly aligned. If the conveyor curves, locate the scale a proper
distance from the tangent points of the curve. For concave curved
conveyors, the recommended minimum distance is 12 m (40 ft)
from the tangent points of the curve. With convex conveyors, the
minimum distance is 6 m (20 ft) on the approach side, and 12 m
(40 ft) on the retreat side. Be sure to install the scale a sufficient dis­

Install speed sensors
The speed sensor should be attached to the tail pulley or bend pul­

speed sensor be properly mounted as described in the Operating
Instructions and free of excessive vibration. Whenever possible,
mount the speed sensor on a solid face pulley. The use of wing- or
beater-type pulleys is not recommended.
Wheel driven speed sensors, that are applied to the return strand of
the belt, should be located close to a return idler to ensure a stable

Milltronics MLC

Overview

Milltronics MLC is a low-capacity scale for light belt loading.

Benefits
• Unique parallelogram style load cell design
• Designed for light product loading
• Compact and easy to install
• System includes weighing idler
• Stainless steel option
• Low cost of ownership

Application

The MLC is suitable for monitoring such products as fertilizer,


tobacco, animal feed pellets, or sugar.
The MLC’s proven use of parallelogram style load cells results in fast
reaction to vertical forces, ensuring instant response to product
loading. This enables it to provide outstanding accuracy and repeat­
ability even with very light loading. The MLC may be easily installed
in existing flat belt conveyors or belt feeders.
Operating with Milltronics BW500, SIWAREX WT241, WP241, or FTC
microprocessor-based integrators, the MLC provides indication of
flow rate, total weight, belt load and belt speed of bulk solids
materials on a belt conveyor. A speed sensor monitors conveyor
belt speed for input to the integrator. When used in conjunction
with Milltronics BW500 integrator with PID controller, the MLC may
also be used in the food industry as part of a pre-feed control sys­
tem for extruders, cookers and de-hydrators.

Milltronics MUS

Overview

Milltronics MUS is a modular designed, medium- to heavy-duty belt


scale for process indication.

Benefits
• Unique modular design
• Simple installation
• Low cost
• Easy retrofit

Application

Milltronics MUS operates with products like aggregates, sand, or


minerals, providing continuous in-line weighing at a minimal cost.
With no cross bridge, this versatile unit will fit most conveyor
widths and standard idlers, and product build-up is reduced.
The construction and easy assembly of the MUS ensures quick deliv­
ery to meet even the tightest of schedules. Where scales are moved
from conveyor to conveyor, the MUS also provides unmatched flex­
ibility.
Operating with Milltronics BW500, SIWAREX WT241, WP241, or FTC
microprocessor-based integrators, the MUS provides indication of
flow rate, total weight, belt load, and speed of bulk solids materials
on a belt conveyor. A speed sensor monitors conveyor belt speed
for input to the integrator.

Milltronics MSI and MMI

Overview Application
Milltronics MSI belt scale
Milltronics MSI belt scale provides continuous in-line weighing on a
variety of products in primary and secondary industries. It is proven
in a wide range of tough applications from extraction (in mines,
quarries and pits), to power generation, iron and steel, food pro­
cessing and chemicals. The MSI is suitable for monitoring such
diverse products as sand, flour, coal, or sugar.
The MSI’s proven use of parallelogram-style load cells results in fast
reaction to vertical forces, ensuring instant response to product
loading. This enables it to provide outstanding accuracy and repeat­
ability even with uneven loading and fast belt speeds.
Operating with Milltronics BW500, SIWAREX WT241, WP241, or FTC
microprocessor-based integrators, the MSI provides indication of
flow rate, totalized weight, belt load, and belt speed of bulk solid
materials. A speed sensor monitors conveyor belt speed for input to
the integrator.
The MSI is installed in a simple drop-in operation and may be

with belt scale. minimum, with just periodic calibration checks required.

Milltronics MMI belt scale


Milltronics MMI belt scale consists of two or more MSI single idler
belt scales installed in series. It provides high accuracy continuous
in-line weighing on a variety of products in primary and secondary
industries. The MMI system is proven in a wide range of tough
applications from extraction to power generation, iron and steel,
food processing and chemicals. The MMI is suitable for monitoring
such diverse products as fertilizer, sand, grain, flour, coal, or sugar.
The MMI’s proven use of parallelogram-style load cells results in fast
reaction to vertical forces, ensuring instant response to product
loading. This enables it to provide outstanding accuracy and repeat­
ability even with uneven or light loading, short idler spacing and
fast belt speeds. Operating with Milltronics BW500 integrator (for
custody transfer applications), the MMI provides indication of flow
rate, total weight, belt load and belt speed of bulk solids materials
on a belt conveyor. A speed sensor monitors conveyor belt speed
for input to the integrator.

Milltronics WD600

Overview

Milltronics WD600 is a light- to medium-duty slider bed belt scale


used for process and load-out control in manufacturing, including
the food, pharmaceutical and tobacco industries.

Benefits
• Simple installation
• Long weigh span for more retention time on load cells

Application

WD600 works with an existing flat belt conveyor and the selected
Siemens integrator. As material is moving along the conveyor belt
and travels over the belt scale, it exerts a force proportional to the
material load through the suspended weighbridge to the load cells.
WD600 reacts only to the vertical component of the applied force.
The resulting movement in each load cell is sensed by its strain
gauges. When the strain gauges are excited by voltage from the
electronic integrator, they produce an electrical signal proportional
to weight, which is then applied to the integrator.
The vertical movement of the load cells is limited by the positive
overload stop incorporated into the design of the load cell mount.

Milltronics TASS

Overview Design

Note:
The TASS can be mounted to a
conveyor cross member or to a
non-weighing idler frame.

Milltronics TASS is a compact low-profile, wheel-driven return belt


speed sensor, ideal for use on mobile crushers and in constricted
TASS
spaces.

Benefits
• Rugged design TASS Installation
• Easy, low cost installation 
• Compact, low-profile speed sensor 
• IP67 rated

Application

Milltronics TASS speed sensor operates in conjunction with a con­


veyor belt scale, providing signals to an integrator (Milltron­
ics BW500, or SIWAREX FTC) which computes the rate of material
being conveyed. The trailing arm speed sensor monitors conveyor
belt speed, with the output signal transmitted by cable connection
to the integrator.
Easily installed close to the belt scale assembly, the TASS provides a
signal generated as the wheel rotates on the return belt. Pulses are
generated by the internal proximity switch detecting the rotation of
the five spoked wheel. The TASS is mounted to the static beam of
the belt scale or to a structural cross member via a pivoting bracket
assembly.
The TASS is a compact, low-profile, rugged speed sensor, most
often used on mobile crusher applications where space is limited.
The TASS output can be applied to any Milltronics belt scale integ­
rator.

Application

Milltronics RBSS monitors conveyor belt speed, with the output sig­


nal transmitted by cable connection to the integrator (Milltron­

Easily installed close to the belt scale assembly, the RBSS provides a
signal generated as the wheel on the sensor rotates on the return
belt. To secure this cost-effective unit in place, position a cross bar
between stringers - either just before or after a return belt idler, or
use the optional mounting bracket. The weight of the RBSS ensures
positive rotation of the wheel in the middle of the return belt, and
pulses from the magnetic sensor are generated by the rotation of
the 60 toothed speed sprocket driven by the wheel.
The RBSS output can be applied to any belt scale integrator.

Speed sensors
SITRANS WS300

Overview

SITRANS WS300 is a low- to high-resolution shaft-driven speed


sensor.

Benefits
• Compact and economical
• Easy, low-cost installation
• Accurate belt speed detection
• Optional resolutions for measurement over a range of belt speeds
• Corrosion resistant

Application

SITRANS WS300 speed sensor operates in conjunction with a con­


veyor belt scale, providing a signal to an integrator which computes
the rate of material being conveyed. At only 1.22 kg (2.68 lb), it is
one of the lightest and most durable units ever developed for mon­
itoring conveyor belt speed. With its rugged cast aluminum hous­
ing, it is suitable for outdoor installation, and its low weight pro­
longs bearing life.
It is directly coupled to a rotating tail or bend pulley shaft to ensure
accurate belt-travel readout, eliminating problems caused by belt
slippage or material build-up. The WS300 converts shaft rotation
into a pulse train of 32, 256, 1 000, or 2 000 pulses per revolution
using a high precision rotary optical encoder. The digital signal is
transmitted as speed input to any Siemens integrator for calculation
of belt speed, flow rate and totalized weight.
This low- to high-resolution speed sensor provides a frequency sig­
nal proportional to the shaft speed, enabling a range of speeds to
be read accurately. The quadrature type shaft encoder prevents
erroneous speed signals due to vibration or shaft oscillation. The
WS300 is easily mounted and is bi-directional for either clockwise or
counter-clockwise belt travel.
The IS version uses an inductive proximity switch detecting rotating
targets.

Accessories
Calibration weight lifter Milltronics MWL

Overview

Milltronics MWL weight lifter is a mechanical calibration weight lift­


er for MCS, MSI, MMI, and MUS belt scales.

Benefits
• Safe and easy application of belt scale reference weights with the
operator remaining external to the conveyor
• Modular construction, easily adaptable to different conveyor
widths
• Low profile allowing easy fit into belt conveyor
• Easy to install and apply
• Easy to store drive handle that can be applied to left or right side
of MWL
• Security pin used to ensure safe storage of weight 
• Can be used with new and existing applications

Application

Milltronics MWL mechanically raises and lowers the static weights


and then stores the weights securely above the belt scale calibra­
tion arms, and allows the operator to lower and apply them safely
without having to lean into the conveyor. The MWL is manually
operated, and uses a high mechanical advantage to enable weights
up to 340 kg (750 lb) to be applied with very limited effort. The
crank handle uses twelve rotations for full range of motion, and can
be removed and stored for safety with the locking ball-pin which
secures the MWL when it is not in use.
Two lifting arms support a base-bar weight above the calibration
(test) weight brackets of the belt scale: either flat bar or round bar
style calibration weights are applicable. Locating notches in the
base-bar weight engage the calibration weights securely on the lift­
ing arms in the stored position, and the gear drive locks the lifting
arms in place.
Installation is easy, just four bolt holes to drill after locating the
MWL gear modules (LH and RH) on the conveyor with respect to the
belt scale. After running the MWL empty to ensure proper align­
ment, and then tightening mounting bolts, you are ready for the
loading of the calibration weights. This is the last time that they will
have to be lifted by hand.

Overview

Roller test chains are used for belt scale calibration when material
tests are not practical. All test chains are bushed. Minimum length
is 4 feet (1.2 m).

Benefits
• Heavy-duty design for rugged applications and long life
• Precision machined components for accurate calibration
• Bushed rollers to ensure rotation during calibration
• Alternative to material tests when they are not possible

Application

Milltronics calibration test chains provide simulated material flow


on a conveyor belt for use with belt scale calibration. Designed for
use in environments where material tests cannot be performed, test
chains come in a variety of capacity options for use in any applica­
tion. They ensure constant and uniform belt loading similar to
material being conveyed, and can be stored on a storage reel for
quick and easy application. The use of a calibration test chain
ensures that production totals are guaranteed.

Overview

Test chain storage reels are used to store roller test chains. All test
chain storage reels come with a geared brake motor.

Benefits
• Mounts to existing conveyor structure above belt
• Motorized application and retraction of test chains for calibration
• Fast and easy calibration

Application

Milltronics calibration test chain storage reels provide motorized


application and retraction of test chains. Complete with an AC
motorized storage reel, test chain reels ensure safe and quick use of
calibration test chains. Designed for use in environments where
material tests cannot be performed, test chain storage reels are
available in any belt width to meet existing customer conveyor geo­
metry. For linearity tests dual compartment reels are available for
different chain weight calibration. Test chain storage reels have a
brake integral to the motor ensuring that test chains do not un-reel
during power outages or material running.

Bend pulleys

Overview

Return belt driven pulley provides rotation for shaft-driven speed


sensors. 4.5 inch size is self-cleaning.

Benefits
• Heavy-duty design for high belt tension
• Self-cleaning 114 mm (4.5 inch) diameter option
• Steel drum 152 mm (6 inch) diameter option
• Steel drum 152 mm (6 inch) with 6 mm (¼ inch) rubber lagged
option
• Spherical self-aligning pillow block bearings
• Fast installation, easy maintenance

Application

Milltronics bend pulleys provide constant belt contact for use with
Siemens speed sensors. Designed for use in rugged operating envir­
onments common to mining, aggregates, cement, minerals, and
other process industries. They ensure concentric speed sensor rota­
tion to reduce pre-mature bearing failure. The use of a bend pulley
driven speed sensor ensures no modification is required on any
existing conveyor shaft. Options include stainless steel construc­
tion, epoxy painting, polymer bearings, self-cleaning style, and
lagged style.

Introduction

Overview

SITRANS weighfeeders from Siemens can improve the accuracy of


processing, blend consistencies, accountability, and record keeping.
All weighfeeders come standard with a belt weigh bridge and speed
sensor. An integrator is required to complete the system.

Mode of operation

The weighfeeder is used to deliver an accurate mass flow rate of


material. In the majority of applications, material is profiled by an
adjustable mechanical shear gate, which fixes the correct material
bed depth for a given particle size.
The feed rate is then maintained and adjusted by varying the speed
of the belt. However, in some cases the belt speed is constant with
rate control (if any) done by a pre-feeding device.
The system consists of three components: weight and speed sens­
ing, integration and control, and the mechanical conveying system.
Using the belt load and the belt speed signals, small incremental
totals of weight per time are measured by the integrator and then
the flow rate is calculated. The measured flowrate is compared
against the desired flowrate and the on-board PID controller makes
necessary corrections to the belt speed.

Design and Applications

SITRANS WW100
The platform weigh bridge mounts directly to a corrosion-resistant
platform load cell. The direct load design eliminates all intermediate
mechanical suspension and allows material weight to be directly
applied to the load cell.
This design minimizes zero drift normally caused by intermediary
suspension components and allows for the use of a very sensitive
precision platform load cell. Load cell size and construction are
chosen for each specific application.
SITRANS WW200
A stainless steel platform weighdeck with a PD-HD slider bar
assembly mounts directly to two corrosion-resistant, sealed plat­
form load cells. The direct load design eliminates all intermediate
mechanical suspension and allows material weight to be directly
applied to the load cells. The frame of the WW200 is sturdy and
rigid, ensuring stable and repeatable results, maximizing resolution
and weighing accuracy.

Weighfeeders
SITRANS WW100

Overview

SITRANS WW100 is a high-accuracy, low-capacity weighfeeder used


for minor ingredient additives.

Benefits
• High accuracy
• High turn down ratio; 100 to 10 % of capacity
• Corrosion resistant components
• Fast and easy belt removal for replacement or cleaning
• Simple installation, easy to clean and maintain
• Available with gear or servomotor

Application

SITRANS WW100 is one of the most accurate in-motion weighing


systems on the market. It is specially designed for high accuracy on
light loading processes. The design eliminates material buildup to
ensure accurate, reliable measurement.
The unique long length platform weigh bridge mounts directly to a
corrosion-resistant platform load cell. An adjustable mechanical
shear gate profiles the material and fixes the correct material bed
depth for a given material particle size. The belt speed can be auto­
matically adjusted to attain the correct feed rate.
Standard components include an anti-static food grade belt, gravity
tensioned roller, tail pulley driven belt for maximum weighing
accuracy, belt tracking rollers, belt scraper and plow for self-clean­
ing.

Overview
SITRANS WW200

Weighfeeders
SITRANS WW200

Overview

SITRANS WW200 is a low- to medium-capacity weighfeeder used for


minor ingredient additives.

Benefits
• High accuracy
• Ideal for low- to medium-capacity loads
• Fast installation, easy to clean and maintain
• Flexible, rugged design allows configurations to suit many applic­
ations
• Quick delivery on standard units 
• Outboard mounted load cells with protective cover

Application

SITRANS WW200 has been field tested and proven in hundreds of


applications.
The unit can be customized to meet exact application needs. Stain­
less or mild steel units are available in open or enclosed styles. Cus­
tom lengths, belt types, inlet configurations, drives, and other
options are available to meet your requirements.
Its cantilevered mechanical design provides for quick belt removal
and easy maintenance. It is designed to eliminate material build-up,
ensuring high accuracy and reliability. The unique weigh system
reduces dead load and applies live load directly to two platform load
cells. Load cells are externally mounted for easy access and main­
tenance.
Standard components include an anti-static food grade belt option,
horizontal slider bars for self-cleaning and minimal product build
up, belt tracking rollers, belt scraper, and plow for self-cleaning.

Siemens SITRANS WF product portfolio includes two basic types of
impact flowmeters: the linear variable differential transformer
(LVDT), and the strain gauge load cell. Each uses a different sensor
to convert the horizontal force on the sensing plate to flow rate.
The totally enclosed design of SITRANS WF heavy-duty solids flow­
meters eliminates product waste or contamination, and reduces
plant maintenance. The dust-tight design creates a healthier work
environment, especially when monitoring hazardous substances.

Common flowmeter infeed types


A solids flowmeter’s performance will be as repeatable and consistent as the flow of material it is measuring. The following arrangements
are typical of pre-feed chute configurations used to ensure consistent flow patterns. Arrangements will vary depending on the upstream
equipment or chute work. Applications should be reviewed by a Siemens solids flowmeter specialist to achieve best results. During initial
setup, use pre-weighing or post-weighing of material samples to calibrate the flowmeter and verify accuracy using the material sample
weights.

Overview
SITRANS WF100

Solid Flowmeters
SITRANS WF100

Overview

SITRANS WF100 flowmeter is a low to medium capacity flowmeter


for various product sizes, densities, and fluidities in restricted
spaces.

Benefits
• Flowrates from 3 to 200 t/h (4 to 220 STPH)
• Continuous monitoring of the material flow without interrupting
the process
• Dust-tight construction: suitable for use in hazardous areas and in
washdown applications that require frequent cleaning
• Minimal maintenance or recalibration after the initial installation
and material tests

Application

WF100 is unaffected by corrosive, abrasive, or hot materials. Hand­


ling various product sizes, densities, and fluidities including fine
powders such as sugar, the WF100 helps to improve final product,
increase operating efficiency, and realize significant cost savings.
Dry bulk solids enter the flow guide producing a mechanical deflec­
tion as they strike the flowmeter sensing plate before continuing
through the process un-hindered. The WF100 converts the deflec­
tion into an electrical signal that feeds into an accompanying integ­
rator, which instantaneously displays the flow rate and totalizes the
weight.
• Key applications: cement, wood chips, cereals, seeds, grains, soy­
bean and rice hulls, unshelled peanuts, starch, sugar, potato
flakes, grain tailings and screenings, and plastic pellets

Solid Flowmeters
SITRANS WF200 series

Overview

SITRANS WF200 and WF250 flowmeters are medium to high capa­


city flowmeters for various product sizes, densities, and fluidities.

Benefits
• For specialized pre-feed applications
• Sensing element mounted outside process
• Flowrates from 200 to 900 t/h (220 to 990 STPH)
• Continuously monitoring of the material flow without interrupting
the process
• Dust-tight construction: suitable for use in hazardous areas and in
washdown applications that require frequent cleaning
• Minimal maintenance or recalibration after the initial installation
and material tests

Application

Operating with a microprocessor based integrator package, the


WF200 series flowmeters display flow rate, totalized flow, and rate
alarms. Outputs are 0/4 to 20 mA proportional to rate and contact
closure for remote totalization. Dry bulk solids enter the flowmeter
before continuing through the process unhindered. The load cells
convert the horizontal force of the deflection into an electrical sig­
nal. The integrator processes this into flowrate and integrated total
weight. The sensing process is immune to the effect of product
build-up as only the horizontal force is measured.
With load cells located externally to the process, the WF200 series
flowmeters measure high capacities with a maximum rate of
900 t/h (990 STPH). For high capacity aerated gravity conveyor pre-
feed, the WF250 has a maximum rate of 900 t/h (990 STPH).
• Key applications: aggregates, grain, cement, mineral processing

Overview
SITRANS WF300 series

Solid Flowmeters
SITRANS WF300 series

Overview

SITRANS WF300 series are low to medium capacity flowmeters for


various product sizes, densities, and fluidities.

Benefits
• For specialized pre-feed applications
• Sensing element mounted outside process
• Flowrates from 0.2 to 300 t/h (0.2 to 330 STPH)
• Continuously monitoring of the material flow without interrupting
the process
• Dust-tight construction: suitable for use in hazardous areas and in
washdown applications that require frequent cleaning
• Minimal maintenance or recalibration after the initial installation
and material tests

Application

With weighing mechanics located externally, the WF300 series


solids flowmeters are unaffected by corrosive, abrasive, or hot
materials. Handling a wide range of product sizes, densities, and
fluidities including fine powders such as cement, they operate at
process temperatures to 230 °C (450 °F). The flowmeters help to
improve final product, increase operating efficiency, and realize sig­
nificant cost savings.
Operating with the appropriate SITRANS WFS sensing head and a
micro-processor-based integrator package, the WF300 series flow­
meters provide a display of the flow rate, totalized flow, and alarms.
Outputs are 0/4 to 20 mA proportional to rate, and open collector
output for remote totalization.
Dry bulk solids enter the flow guide producing a mechanical deflec­
tion as they strike the flowmeter sensing plate before continuing
through the process unhindered. The LVDT in the sensing head con­
verts the deflection of the horizontal force into an electrical signal.
The integrator processes this signal into a display of flowrate and
integrated total weight. The weighing process is immune to the
effect of product build-up as only the horizontal force is measured.
SITRANS WF330 flowmeters are totally enclosed, with external
weighing mechanics, operating with corrosive, abrasive or hot
materials. SITRANS WF350 series operates with aerated gravity con­
veyors, and includes integral vents and baffles for air separation.
For applications with little available headroom, the SITRANS WF340
series flowmeters provide the answer.

Overview
SITRANS WFS300 sensing heads

Solid Flowmeters
SITRANS WFS300 sensing heads

Overview

SITRANS WFS300 and WFS320 sensing heads are out-of-the process


sensing elements for SITRANS WF300 series solids flowmeters.

Benefits
• Easy installation with modular assembly
• ± 1 % accuracy (or better) with high repeatability
• Totally enclosed, dust-tight, flow metering of bulk solids
• Sensing mechanism is outside the process, protected from con­
tamination
• No zero drift, due to unique sensing mechanism
• Low maintenance; only the sensing plate is in the process
• No restriction of product flow

Application

SITRANS WFS300 and WFS320 sensing heads are used in applica­


tions such as product rationing, batch load-out, and process feed
rate control, the WFS series of sensing heads has been field-proven
in thousands of applications with some units providing over a
quarter century of reliable performance.
The WFS sensing heads use only the horizontal force created by
impact of product upon the sensing plate and then apply the hori­
zontal deflection to a highly reliable linear variable differential
transformer (LVDT).
Friction-less pivots exclude the vertical force from the sensing pro­
cess and the LVDT travel range is controlled by a coil spring selected
for the specified full-scale flow rate. A viscous fluid damper provides
mechanical damping in the event of pulsating flows.
The LVDT converts the horizontal movement, proportional to the
impact forces into an electrical signal, which is converted by the
integrator to time-based flow rate indication and totaling. This
method of sensing material flow has been proven best in thousands
of applications all over the world.
