The 1756-WS weigh scale module, engineered by Hardy Solutions for integration within the Allen-Bradley ControlLogix PLC system, excels in digitizing and conditioning weight signals from strain gauge sensors or load cells. Capable of supplying 5 Volts DC to up to four 350 Ohm load cells, this module efficiently transmits gross weight, net weight, and rate of change data over the chassis backplane to the ControlLogix processor. It boasts an impressive resolution of 1:8,388,608 and a conversion rate of 50 updates per second, while maintaining power efficiency with a draw of less than 1 Amp at 5 Volts DC and its robust design ensures reliable operation within a temperature range of 0 to 60 degrees Celsius, supported by both electronic (C2) calibration and traditional test weight calibration methods.
