System overview
The W-4510 Weigh Scale detector uses Ohmart's GEN2000 electronics. The W-4510 Weigh
Scale system consists of three main components:
•
Source holder
•
W-4510 Weigh Scale detector assembly (includes GEN2000 sensor and GEN2000 power
supply and communications)
•
Smart Pro or Smart Pro Pac electronics
4-20 mA
current loop
DCS
The following statements describe the source holder:
•
A cast or welded steel and lead enclosure that houses a radiation-emitting source
capsule
•
Directs the radiation in a narrow collimated beam through the process material
•
Shields the radiation elsewhere
•
A shutter on the source holder either completely shields the radiation (source off) or
allows it to pass through the process (source on)
•
Self-contained calibration absorber for performing a Two-point calibration on an empty
belt.
