PRECAUTIONS Prior to installation, operation or maintenance activities, carefully read this user manual. Follow the instructions strictly. Prior to the first use, carefully read this user manual. Use the device only as intended. Protect the device against considerable temperature variation, solar and UV radiation, substances causing chemical reactions.
1. INTENDED USE The MW-04 mass converter is designed to be a component of an industrial load cell scale. Depending on the needs, communication with the mass converter can be carried out via the following communication interfaces: RS232, RS485, Ethernet, Profibus, and Modbus protocol. The MW-04 mass converter can connect with PUE 5.15, PUE 5.19, indicators or a PC.
5. RECYCLING MW-04 mass converters must be recycled, they are not to be treated as a regular household waste. Devices to be decommissioned must be decommissioned in accordance with valid legal regulations.
