The HI 4060 is a compact, single-feeder, closed-loop rate controller for use in applications including auger, belt and vibratory-based feeders, converting them from volumetric to gravimetric.
After supplying excitation to the load sensors and digitising the weight signal, the rate controller provides an analogue output to control the feeder speed and adjusts this signal based on the required rate at which the feeder is losing weight.
The rate controller features an embedded web server, true five-point automatic rate calibration, automatic feeder refill, various alarms including rate tolerance and disturbance, and optional Devicenet, Ethernet/IP, Remote I/O, Profibus, Modbus TCP/IP, and Analog communications.
It also includes Waversaver to eliminate the effects of surrounding vibration for fast, stable weight display, C2 electronic calibration without test weights, a secure digital (SD) memory module card for fast transfer of configuration data, and Integrated Technician for system diagnostics and troubleshooting.
To meet specific installation needs, the HI 4060 is available with AC or DC power, and in-panel, remote, wall, or blind DIN rail-mounting packaging configurations.
Panel installations are simplified with no special tools required to cut rectangular holes.
Just use the included template to drill standard holes and install.
