DWS2103

Digital technology opens up completely new opportunities

The DWS2103 is a digital scale display for communication with legal-for-trade load cells and electronics. Combined with the AED digital transducer family or FIT® digital load cells it enables legal-for-trade, automatic weighing instruments (AWI) to be implemented, for example, automatic catch weighers, automatic checkweighers, and automatic gravimetric filling instruments.

The DWS2103 meets the maximum requirements in terms of security. The latest MID EC directive (Measuring Instruments Directive requires data transmission that excludes manipulation. In legal-for-trade mode, the DWS2103 digital scale display guarantees secure, encrypted transmission of measurement data. Consequently, legal-for-trade capability is fully guaranteed at any time.

Benefits of digital signal transmission

Purely digital signal transmission opens up opportunities for new concepts. These include WLAN data transmission or voltage supply by self-contained systems, for example solar, fuel cells or rechargeable batteries. Wireless transmission offers more advantages, such as galvanic isolation. In addition, the DWS2103 needs not be installed in close proximity to the actual weighing instrument; multiple scales can be operated simultaneously using a single display. Moreover, digital technology enables asset management of weighing applications to be implemented, because information about the sensor can be read out.

Fully digital measuring chain

Combined with FIT® load cells or the AED digital transducers, HBM is the only manufacturer worldwide to offer a digital solution ranging from components to complete solutions, i.e. the complete, purely digital measuring chain.

Also for use with analog systems

Incidentally: You need not replace all analog load cells, if you want to use the DWS2103. Digitize the signals of analog load cells using the AED product family. This enables you to continue using your systems and, at the same time, benefit from digital precision.
