TLM8 PROFIBUS DP Weight Transmitter

Laumas TLM8 PROFIBUS DP weight transmitter

The Laumas TLM8 PROFIBUS DP monitors eight separate weighing channels, giving the control system visibility of individual load-cell signals instead of only a combined total. This is particularly useful on large tanks, silos, hoppers and platforms.

The eight inputs accept up to sixteen 350 Ω load cells in total. For plant integration, this version is fitted with a PROFIBUS DP interface for established process and factory networks.

An RS485 connection is available for setup and secondary communication. Match the channel layout, load-cell quantity and PROFIBUS DP interface to the proposed control system.
