Load cell junction box JB4T-INTELLIGENT

wall-mountedDIN railincreased safety

Continuous, cost-effective load cell monitoring with an instant alarm signal - just like having a service engineer on-site 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The JB4T-INTELLIGENT junction box is designed to continuously monitor a load cell weighing system for error or fault conditions. Up to 4 load cells can be monitored in the same weighing system; if a fault condition occurs with one or more load cells then an alarm signal is triggered via a relay output. There is no need for a standard junction box as well. It is powered directly from the weight indicator / transmitter so there is no need for an external power supply. Reasons to use the Intelligent Junction Box: • Minimises wastage on batching systems • Reduces chances of expensive and damaging product recalls • Increased safety of the weighing system - it can detect load cell overload • Load cell errors / faults / damage can be quickly identified and solved • Can be used with any brand of indicator/transmitter that meets the stated requirements Fault conditions monitored: • Out-of-balance signal across all the load cells • Load cell signal is outside a pre-set range • Reduction in excitation voltage • Load cell is in a short or open circuit state Key features: • Continuous monitoring of weighing system with up to 4 load cells • Alarm signal via relay • Red LED display shows error message if fault condition occurs • No separate power supply required - it is powered from the weight indicator / transmitter • Simple, fast installation using removable terminal blocks • IP65 ABS casing (Stainless Steel or Omega/DIN rail mount options) • Permitted excitation voltage from indicator / transmitter: 4-12V DC
