Guide Rail Scale PCE-SD ... CR series
Guide Rail Scale up to max. 150 kg / bi-directional RS-232 interface / 
width of guide rail approx. 580 mm / 
optionally purchasable: RS-485, analogue outputs 4 ... 20 mA, 0 ... 10 V,  USB interface

The guide rail scale PCE-SD ... CR series is designed for applications in many processes and delivery businesses, since the guide rail scale supports many interfaces. Furthermore the guide rail scale features a standard RS-232 interface. In addition the guide rail scale PCE-SD CR series can be equipped with further interfaces, which enable controlling the guide rail scales. For example, the guide rail scale can be extended with an analogue output 4-20 mA or 0-10 V, or even potential-free contactors. Apart from that the guide rail scale is calibrated and thus can be used for tasks in areas of custody transfer. The guide rail scale can be also integrated into larger guide rails, and by that can be used as an extension module.

Optional Equipment for the Guide Rail Scale

Interfaces
Due to its high protection category the guide rail scale does not feature any interface. 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 guide rail 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 guide rail 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 guide rail 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 guide rail scale 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
