The device’s 1,000 Hz sampling rate and processing time combined with a digital output response time of less than one millisecond work to ensure accuracy and repeatability.

May 18, 2020 - Siwarex WP351 is Siemens’ solution for intelligent weighing automation. Measuring 0.8 inches wide by 2.6 inches high, the module is designed to be one of the smallest weighing electronics units available. The device’s 1,000 Hz sampling rate and processing time combined with a digital output response time of less than one millisecond work to ensure accuracy and repeatability.

As an integral part of Simatic ET 200SP, Siwarex WP351 can be integrated into Simatic and non-Simatic automation systems. The intelligent firmware gives users the ability to control weighing processes directly from the module, thereby reducing the load on the connected PLC. Through the ethernet-connected web server, users can commission and maintain the device - or gain emergency access to the scale in case of a failed or disrupted PLC. Connectivity coupled with device status transparency and full access to all scale data ensures servicing. Compatible with almost all analog strain gauge load cells, Siwarex WP351 is a versatile solution for demanding weighing applications such as mixing, filling, bagging, checking, or totalizing.
