4–20 mA Output Weighing Scale – Weight Signal Direct to Your PLC
Price on Request
HSCo weighing scale with a built-in 4–20 mA analogue output proportional to load, for PLC batching, tank weighing and conveyor control. Custom capacity, platform, MS or SS.
A 4–20 mA output scale is an HSCo weighing scale with an analogue 4–20 mA signal built in at the factory. The current rises in step with the load, so a PLC or controller can read the weight directly for batching, tank weighing or conveyor control. We build it to your capacity, platform size, display type and MS or SS finish.
Why use a 4–20 mA scale
- Direct to your PLC. An analogue signal proportional to the applied load.
- Real-time control. Continuous weight feedback for batching and dosing.
- Proven industrial standard. Works with the analogue inputs most control systems already have.
- Built to suit. Capacity, platform size, display type, MS or SS finish.
Where it is used
| Chemical processing | Weight feedback into process control |
|---|---|
| Batching plants | Controlled addition of ingredients |
| Food manufacturing | Recipe and fill control |
| Tank weighing | Level by weight into the PLC |
| Conveyors and process lines | Monitoring and automation |
| Warranty | 1 year |
Scale or add-on?
This product is a complete scale with 4–20 mA built in. Already have a scale? The 4–20 mA output for weighing scales is the add-on for an existing HSCo scale and most other makes. For digital links, see the RS485 port scale. More in Connectivity & Customised Scales.
