U-Shape Scale PCE-SD U SST series
Calibrated U-shape scale made of stainless steel / incl. transport rollers / IP68-IP65 / 
Unit Counter / Summation function / analogue outputs 4 ... 20 mA, 0 ... 10 V optional

The U-shape scale is a calibratable scale that will be already calibrated before delivery. The measurements of the U-shape scale are exactly accordant to serial EU palettes. The U-shape of the platform scale allows a quick and easy load of the scale even by means of forklift scales. The four load cells of the U-shape scale are IP68 protected and are embedded at the corners of the U-shape scale. The weighing frame is made of massive stainless steel that is resistant to acids. The display of the U-shape scale is IP65 protected and can be mounted either to a wall or placed on a table. There is also an option to extend the U-shape scale with interfaces, e.g. RS-232, USB, LAN, 4-20 mA etc., whilst it should be considered that the IP protection would be affected by that. For a more comfortable transport and moving from one location to another, the U-shape scale also features rollers at its pillars. Functions of the U-shape scale are automatic tare, unit counter, tare memory, gross / net weighing, percentage calculation, threshold measurement etc. In case that you should have more questions regarding the U-shape scale PCE-SD U SST series, please read the following technical data, use our contact form or call us: +44 (0) 2380 98703 0. Our technicians and engineers will gladly advise you regarding palettes scales or any other product in the field of Control Systems, Laboratory Equipment, Measuring Instruments or Scales and Balances of PCE Instruments Ltd.

- Calibratable incl. initial calibration before delivery

Optional Equipment for the U-shape Scale

Interfaces
Due to its high protection category the U-shape scale does not feature any interface. Although there is the option to integrate these interfaces by order. They cannot be mounted subsequently.
RS-232 interface Item-Nr. AF-RS232-PCE
RS-485 interface Item-Nr. AF-RS485-PCE
USB interface Item-Nr. AF-USB-S
LAN interface Item-Nr. AF-LAN-S

Software Procell
The software is able to simulate a manual data feed-in and can transfer the data e.g. straight to Excel with time and date. There is also the option of saving a TXT file in the background. (data cable not included in delivery) 
It.-nr. PCE-SOFT-Procell

USB stick
If there is no computer or printer to be connected to the U-shape scale, the weighing data can be saved with time and date stamp as a txt.-file on a USB stick. The USB stick is to connect to the U-shape scale via the RS-232 interface. The adapter requires a separate external power source (adapter incl.)
Item- Nr. PCE-USM

Analogue output 4-20 mA / 0 ... 10 V
The 16 bit analogue output converts the weight value into a mA or V signal, so that e.g. a SPS control system can response to that. Example with 4 ... 20 mA: At 0 kg a signal of 4 mA is sent, while at maximum load a 20 mA signal is released. The 20 mA / 10 V limit can be also customized individually.
Item-Nr. AF-4-20mA-PCE
Item-Nr. AF-0-10V-PCE

Potential-free contacts
This contactor is called in short-terms an OC-contactor. It means that by reaching preset weight limits e.g. MIN / OK / MAX, the scale is able to switch a maximum of three contacts. The switch can be either set as an impulse or a continuous signal. 
Item Nr. AF-TSD

Printer
For immediate print-out of values from the U-shape scale (e.g. for protocol of weighing data). Delivery of printer incl. RS232 printer cable and 240 V network adapter, paper width 112 mm ( 1 role incl.).
Item Nr. PCE-BP 1

Signal lights
This signal lamp helps assuring a visible signal system for the whole personnel. If the weight is below the minimal limit, the yellow lamp brightens up, if the values are within the preset thresholds, the green lamp brightens, if the weight trespasses the upper limit, the red light starts brighten. 
Item -Nr. PCE-CSD

RS-232 cable
This serial cable has a total length of 1 m, and features the accordant pins 2-3/ 3-2 / 5-5 for a bi-directional communication path of the waterproof steel balance with a computer.
Item-Nr. PCE-BDM-RS232

USB adapter
This adapter is meant for a conversion from a RS-232 interface Sub D 9 to a USB interface. It additionally requires a serial cable with the right poling.
Item Nr. RS232-USB
