weighting with 1500 cpu

Hi Ron,

the best solution for weighing with ET200SP is the Siwarex WP321. http://w3.siemens.com/mcms/sensor-systems/en/weighing-systems/weighing-electronics/plc-based-weighing-modules/Pages/Weighing-module-SIWAREX-WP321.aspx 

The module can be integrated easily into a S7-1500 system. There are "Ready for use" TIA-Projects for this: https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/de/en/view/94109373  

The Manual you find here: https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/de/en/view/90893240 

The evaluation of the weighing signal you have to do with the PLC.

To decide load cell type and mounting units I would need more information about the installation like dead load, length of the conveyor, time to measure, drawing of the conveyor.... See also attached questionnaire.

You can send all these data into a support request: https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/sc/2100/support-request?lc=en-DE

Hi ABenno,

Thanks for the reply. I thought about using the WP321 but then I've been told that it's not for dynamic weighing. For now I don't see a simple solution. I'll probably use a 3rd party weight...

New question published by AutoGen_948162 is split to a separate thread with the subject How can i calculate perameter to use third party weight module.

Best regards
