Weight Controller offers ControlNet(TM) network interface.
November 27, 2009 -
Measuring 3 in. deep, Model HI 4050 is available with ControlNet(TM) network interface, which allows transfer of time-critical application information at 5 Mbit/sec in redundant, deterministic, and predictable manner. Information can be transmitted to up to 98 additional nodes at distances of 250-5,000 m. In addition to WAVERSAVER®, which eliminates effects of vibration, controller includes C2® electronic calibration, SD-based memory card, and IT® for system diagnostics.

Hardy Instruments' HI 4050 Weight Controller Now with Optional ControlNet(TM) Network Interface
San Diego, CA (short version) - Only three inches deep, Hardy Instruments' HI 4050 general-purpose weight controller is now available with a ControlNet(TM) network interface. ControlNet allows the fast transfer of time-critical application information at 5 Mbit/sec in a redundant, deterministic and predictable manner. Information can be transmitted to up to 98 additional nodes at distances of 250 to 5,000 meters. The interface comes with two BNC convertors for cable redundancy.
The HI 4050 weight controller includes WAVERSAVER® to eliminate the effects of surrounding vibration for fast, stable weight display, C2® electronic calibration without test weights, a Secure Digital (SD) based Secure Memory Module card for fast transfer of configuration data, and INTEGRATED TECHNICIAN (IT®) for system diagnostics and troubleshooting. It comes standard with EtherNet, and optional DeviceNet, ControlNet, EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP, Profibus, Allen-Bradley Remote I/O, or Analog.
An ISO 9001-certified manufacturer, Hardy Instruments is based in San Diego, California. For more information about Hardy Instruments, please visit www.hardyinstruments.com or call 1-800-821-5831.
San Diego, CA (long version) - Only three inches deep, the HI 4050 general-purpose weight controller is now available with a ControlNet(TM) network interface. ControlNet allows the fast transfer of time-critical application information at 5 Mbit/sec in a redundant, deterministic and predictable manner. Information can be transmitted to up to 98 additional nodes at distances of 250 to 5,000 meters. The interface comes with two BNC connectors for cable redundancy but can operate with a single or dual RG-6 coaxial cable bus. The HI 4050 is used in vessel weighing, batching/blending, filling/dispensing, check weighing, level-by-weight, and force measurement applications.
To meet your specific installation needs, the HI 4050 is available with AC or DC power and in-panel, wall, remote or blind DIN rail mounting packaging configurations. Installations are simplified with no special tools required to cut rectangular holes. Just use the included template to drill standard holes and install. The controller includes a standard EtherNet 10/100 Base T with an embedded web server and an RS 232 printer or scoreboard display port. Optional network communications over DeviceNet, ControlNet, Ethernet/IP, Modbus TCP, Profibus, Allen-Bradley® Remote I/O, or Analog are also available.
The HI 4050 weight controller includes Hardy Instruments' core technologies:
o WAVERSAVER®, which eliminates the effects of surrounding vibration to provide a fast, stable weight display
o C2®, which allows for electronic calibration without the need for test weights
o Secure Memory Module with Secure Digital (SD) card (SMM®-SD), which allows manual transfer of configuration data to another instrument or PC using SD technology
o INTEGRATED TECHNICIAN (IT®) for system diagnostics and troubleshooting
