Cardinal Scale’s model 201 weight transmitter is a fast, accurate
instrument for process control-based static and dynamic weighing
applications. The 201 is capable of powering up to eight 350-ohm load
cells and comes with a 35-mm DIN rail mounting bracket. The USA-
made 201 transmitter features a 0.5-inch-high, six-digit, transflective
LCD display with up to seven different colors and is viewable in all
lighting levels from direct light to total darkness. A variety of mounting
options and ColorZONE control options make it ideal for quick visual
verification of weight status.
The model 201 offers sample rates of up to 200 samples per second
and standard communication protocols include serial interface RS232/
RS485, mini-USB-B, Analog (0-10V or 4-20mA), Ethernet TCP/IP,
EIP, and Modbus TCP, making it easy to connect to a PC, PLC, and
other smart devices. Four programmable digital inputs and outputs are
included to make it even more flexible. Connectivity set-up is simple
using the printed legend on the front of the 201 enclosure. Setup and
calibration of the model 201 is fast and easy using both the on-screen
indicator menu prompts or Web browser interface via IP address.
The 201's 4-in W x 4.2-in H x 1.9-in D compact size uses very
little panel space, and the enclosure can be DIN rail mounted
with the display either internal or remotely mounted on the
face of the cabinet making it easy to implement into new and
existing systems. The 201 is both NTEP and Measurement
Canada certified for legal-for-trade applications and is UL
listed and CE certified.
