Shear beam load cell DLC08

single-pointstrain gaugedigital

The Model DLC08 is a high-performance, digital load cell interface for precision measurement of strain gage transducers. With DLC08 technology, any analog load cell can be converted to a full-function digital load cell. The interface circuit board can either be embedded in the load cell (space permitting), or installed in a 9 pin “D” type connector at the load cell cable end. Simple RS-485 wiring connects the DLC08 to any PC, PLC, or DCS device. All calibration and operating procedures are fully documented on the accompanying installation CD ROM. Open architecture DLC08 software provides instant access to all configuration and calibration parameters. DLC08-enabled summing junction boxes offer digital interfacing for multiple load cell scales via an RS-485 bus. Features: • Serial interface (RS-485) • All settings made through the serial interface • Simple calibration, test and setting via HyperTerminal programming, or via Revere’s software • Automatic unit conversion, zero tracking • Gravity factor compensation • Tare function • Suitable for PC-base, μC, PLC application • Weight result format: six digits, eight announciators • Up to 64 nodes • ESD protection up to 15 kV • Optional • USB interface • Tilt sensor Applications • OEM machinery • Load cell digitizers • Inventory and level control
