Laumas MODWF Wi-Fi serial weight transmitter

The MODWF provides a wireless serial link for compatible Laumas weighing equipment where running a communication cable is inconvenient. It is intended for transferring weighing data within a correctly configured Wi-Fi installation rather than replacing the load-cell measuring electronics.

This compact interface can be useful when adding remote supervision or connecting an existing weighing installation to networked equipment. Performance will depend on signal coverage, network configuration and the surrounding industrial environment.

Before ordering, confirm the serial connection on the weighing instrument, the required communication arrangement and the available Wi-Fi coverage at the installation point.
