Note: The catalog confirms the number of Load Cell channels, resolution, signal range, adjustable measurement rate, and power supply information, but does not specify Excitation Voltage details, weighing system accuracy, or Zero/Tare function. Therefore, it is necessary to check the specific model datasheet before designing a real weighing system.
Load Cell Input of 2 Channels
The PLC EXPLX3V-2WT supports connecting two Load Cell sensors for reading signals related to force or weight from measuring devices.
This can be used to collect data from two weighing positions or a system that requires measuring signals from multiple Load Cells. Please refer to the manufacturer's manual for connection and setup details.
Supports 1-15 mV/V Load Cell Signal
The module supports measurement signals in the range of 1-15 mV/V as per the catalog, which is the signal sensitivity related to the Excitation Voltage of the Load Cell.
Selecting a Load Cell requires checking Rated Output, Excitation Voltage, Input Impedance and signal wiring configuration to match the module for accurate weighing system design.
The range 1-15 mV/V should not be directly interpreted as an input voltage range in millivolts because mV/V is the ratio of output signal to excitation voltage of the Load Cell.
24-bit Resolution
EXPLX3V-2WT has a 24-bit resolution for converting signals from Load Cells into digital data for processing in PLC systems, as per the catalog information.
The 24-bit resolution refers to signal conversion capability and does not directly indicate accuracy or the number of significant figures that can be guaranteed for weighing results.
Actual measurement performance depends on sensors, mechanical load, installation conditions, environment, and calibration.
Adjustable Measurement Rate in 7 Levels
| Measurement Rate |
Catalog Value |
| Setting 1 | 7.5 Hz |
| Setting 2 | 10 Hz |
| Setting 3 | 25 Hz |
| Setting 4 | 50 Hz |
| Setting 5 | 60 Hz |
| Setting 6 | 150 Hz |
| Setting 7 | 300 Hz |
The EXPLX3V-2WT can adjust the measurement rate as specified in the catalog to suit the characteristics of the weighing system.
Determining the Measurement Rate should consider weight change speed, signal noise, and data stability requirements. Refer to the manufacturer's manual for setup details and impact on measurements.
Works with PLC Systems
EXPLX3V-2WT is a Weighing Control Module for PLC systems that are supported, used to receive data from Load Cell and send measurement data to the control system based on the capabilities of the PLC.
The selection must be verified with the main CPU compatibility, number of supported modules, and load cell connection methods as per the manufacturer's manual before installation.
Power Supply System 24 VDC ±20%
The module uses a power supply voltage of 24 VDC ±20%, with the catalog specifying an electrical consumption of 2 VA.
In control cabinet design, it is necessary to check the power source coordinates, wiring, and electrical protection systems appropriately for the module and connected equipment.
