Weight Transmitter

EL5 Ethercat

The brand new EL5 weight transmitter can be used in any industrial weighing system with the purpose of regulation and supervision. Practical, fast, flexible, suitable for systems up to 8 load cells. The EL5 weight transmitter can be configured via PC using dedicated software or directly from the Master via the communication protocol used. Main functions: field and remote fault diagnostics, emulation function of the faulty cell with exclusion from the weighing system and automatic recalibration of the new load cell. It is the natural evolution of the E LINK 3000 weighing instrument. It has two serial inputs: COM1: RS232 for configuring parameters from PC and COM2: RS485 with Modbut RTU or Fieldbus protocol (Profinet, Profibus, Canopen, Ethernet IP and classic Ethernet ). EL5 has extractable terminal blocks for electrical connection to load cells. Value for quality, performance, price, simply incredible. A real must have for all weighing systems.
