The Allen Bradley 1756-2WS is a dual-channel weigh scale module, specifically intended for high-precision measurement tasks. It is capable of handling two separate scale channels, enabling efficient management of multiple load cells. Support for up to eight 350-ohm Full Wheatstone Bridge strain gauge load sensors is a key feature, making this module suitable for precise weighing applications.
Power specifications indicate that this module requires 1.0 A of backplane current at 5V DC and a minimal draw of 0.0125 A at 24V DC, which aids in energy-efficient operations. In terms of temperature requirements, the device can function within an ambient range of 0 °C to 60 °C, ensuring adaptability to various environments. The unit is also capable of being stored in temperatures as low as -40 °C and up to 85 °C, reflecting its robustness across different storage conditions.
Operating efficiently in a relative humidity range of 5% to 95% (non-condensing), the 1756-2WS is designed to maintain performance integrity despite moisture variations. Additionally, it can be installed at altitudes up to 1000 meters, catering to diverse operational environments while remaining reliable in performance.
