Hardy's Enviro™ checkweigher bench scales meet the need for sanitary checkweighing electronics that withstand high-pressure, high-temperature washdown environments. Versatile enough for use in various food and chemical applications, the Enviro's sanitary design, commercial approval, washdown rating and easy-to-use front-panel checkweighing functions make it the ultimate checkweighing instrument.

WEIGHING APPLICATIONS.

• Heavy washdown
• Food processing
• Batching
• Filling
• Process control
• System integration

Ulimate Sanitary Design

Made of stainless steel 304 and featuring an IP69K rated instrument, the Enviro™ washdown checkweighers are designed for easy cleaning and sanitizing. All welds are continuous, which prevents processing materials and moisture from accumulating and forming colonization points for harmful bacteria like Listeria Monocytogenes, Salmonella and E. Coli. The ultra-thick overlay resists punctures and abrasive cleaning agents. Adhering to the AMI's strict standards ensures that Enviro™ scales are safe for use in RTE areas and other production applications.

Versatile in Functionality

The Enviro™ checkweigher features four programmable checkweigh ranges, Peak Hold to capture the highest weight value recorded, multi-point calibration, three remote switches, accumulation or auto-accumulate, print or auto-print, and RS232 and RS485 outputs (standard). It also boasts the most visible display in the industry, with larger-than-average digits and amber LEDs with seven selectable intensity settings to reduce eye strain.

Bench Scales

The superior sanitary design and durable stainless steel construction of the Enviro™ washdown bench scales are a perfect foundation for a reliable sanitary bench scale configuration. Just add your choice of a Hardy Instruments weight controller/ indicator. All surfaces are visible and accessible for clearning and sanitizing. Closed corners on the platform cover prevent splash collection of water or processing materials inside the scale. Bushing and spacers are used to eliminate lap joints and facilitate quick and easy cleaning.

This weight controller / weight indicator acts as a front end to a PLC, PC or DCS system for most weighing applications, or as a stand-alone for simple control or weight monitoring.

Modularity – Configure the HI 4050 weight controller to suit your applications:

• Specify it with or without a display
• Choose either AC or DC power
• Add some Digital I/O
• Select a communication network: Analog, DeviceNet, EtherNet/IP, Allen-Bradley Remote I/O, Profibus, or Modbus TCP/IP
• Choose between a panel/remote mount and a DIN rail mount. With a display, you choose either to panel mount the entire assembly, or to mount the controller housing assembly remotely.

Ease of Installation – Installation is easy, with no special tools or expertise required. Just drill five to nine standard holes in your panel, and attach the front panel keyboard display. There is no rectangular cutout required. The controller housing can be attached to the rear of the panel or remotely up to 100 feet away to a DIN rail. Need to replace an HI 2151/30WC or HI 2110WI? Just drill four holes and plug the HI 4050 controller in.

Small Footprint – The HI 4050 Series controller is designed to optimize panel space and depth is only 76.2 mm (3 in).

Ease of Set-up – By using its embedded web server, you can access the weight controller remotely to control information, instrument parameters and diagnose problems. Front panel keys and graphic display with simple menus provide quick easy setup with process weight and parameter display.

Accessibility – The embedded EtherNet communications port in the HI 4050 weight controller enables users to easily share data across a production facility, eliminating the time and costs associated with new network wiring.

The Hardy Instruments HI 3030 Weight Controller is a flexible, world-class weight controller that can monitor and control up to four scales simultaneously.

The Multi-scale weight controller can act as a front end to a PLC, PC or DCS system for applications such as level, batching, filling, dispensing, and check weighing, or as a stand alone for simple control or weight monitoring.

As a bridge to a PLC, its four scales can share one network connection, whether it’s DeviceNet, ControlNet, Ethernet/IP, Allen-Bradley Remote I/O, or Profibus. You can also link additional HI 3030s with their multiple scales and share the same network connection. Just like the other Series 3000 products, you can configure or monitor the HI 3030 operating using your Palm OS PDA, web browser, or network interface.

Hardy Instruments Filler/Dispenser Controller Model HI 3010 is designed to fit nearly any filling, dispensing, or Intermediate Bulk Container Application.

The HI 3010 handles all materials from all types of feeding mechanisms (gates, feeders, or valves) to all types of destination (packages, containers, vessels, or trucks).

Whether filling or dispensing solids, liquid or gases, the Hardy Instruments Filler/Dispenser automates your entire process. The HI 3010 achieves accurate and repeatable results, not only through the use of our core weight control technologies, but also because it controls, monitors, and tunes the entire filling or dispensing operation.

As a stand-alone controller, it offers fast and slow speeds with auto self-adjusting preacts for fast precise process control. Built-in totalizers keep you up to date as to the number of cycles and amount of material in the cycle, as well as history totals for each of the twelve internally stored material configurations. Output alarms warn you of overfills, feed timeouts, out of tolerance, not OK to fill, too many jogs, if the discharge gate is not responding, and even when to change an intermediate bulk container.
