Operation - Siemens Milltronics WD600 Instruction Manual

Operation

WD600 works with an existing flat belt conveyor and the selected Siemens integrator. As
material is moving along the conveyor belt and travels over the belt scale, it exerts a force
proportional to the material load through the suspended weighbridge to the load cells.
WD600 reacts only to the vertical component of the applied force. The resulting
movement in each load cell is sensed by its strain gauges. When the strain gauges are
excited by voltage from the electronic integrator, they produce an electrical signal
proportional to weight, which is then applied to the integrator. The vertical movement of
the load cells is limited by the positive overload stop incorporated into the design of the
load cell mount.
