Case Study

A company required a cost-effective solution for monitoring individual silos with a simple display. The solution involved installing four load cells connected to digital strain cards (DSCs) and a multi-channel DSJ4, allowing connection via RS485 to an LED display. This setup enabled users to view changes in the silo and receive error alerts for any issues with the load cells.

Environmental and Compliance
  • CE Environmental Approvals: European EMC Directive 2004/108/EC.
