HBM has developed a digital amplifier, VKIA405, that securely and permanently protects warehouse-storage areas from overloading.
The amplifier guarantees long-term stability of a storage system because it enables monitoring of loads during operations and prevents any possibility of overloading in the storage area.
Up to four SG load cells can be connected to the VKIA405 amplifier from HBM to ensure stability in warehouse monitoring.
Up to four analogue load cells can be connected to the amplifier.
The VKIA enables digital measured-value processing with long-term stable-supply voltage for the analogue load cells.
An HBM-tested off-centre load-compensation network is integrated in the VKIA405, which simplifies installation because no additional wiring connection boxes for the load cells are needed.
The VKIA405 is fitted with a serial RS485 interface.
This ensures effective integration with the control and data-processing system of a warehouse.
A typical use of the VKIA405 is to integrate the amplifier and corresponding load cells at the charging station so they are part of the material flow.
The VKIA405 is also suitable for simple weighing and monitoring tasks beyond legal-for-trade requirements.
