Works as described

No major issues. The finish and fit are both acceptable for this range.

5 FAQ

Q: What is the maximum overload capacity before permanent damage occurs?

A: The sensor can withstand a safe overload of 150% of the rated capacity (R.C.) and an ultimate overload of 300% R.C. without permanent deformation, though calibration may need verification after extreme events.

Q: Is the cable length customizable for deep silo installations?

A: The standard unit comes with a 5-meter cable. However, we offer customization services where the cable can be extended up to 50 meters upon request at the time of order.

Q: Can this be used for dynamic weighing on fast-moving conveyor belts?

A: Yes, the high sampling rate and digital filtering make it suitable for dynamic weighing applications like belt scales, provided the mechanical installation minimizes vibration transfer.

Q: Do you provide a USB-to-RS485 converter for testing?

A: We do not include the converter in the box, but we sell a compatible USB-to-RS485 adapter separately. Alternatively, any standard industrial RS485 interface will work for configuration and testing.

Q: Does this sensor support daisy-chaining multiple units on one RS485 line?

A: Yes, these sensors support Modbus RTU over RS485, allowing you to daisy-chain up to 32 units on a single pair of wires by assigning unique addresses to each sensor.
