The digital load cell FIT5A by HBM Test and Measurement ensures secure and reliable dynamic weighing operations, even in harsh working conditions. Weighing and filling machines application in food industry needs to ensure precise filling, to minimize overfill and increase output, working in challenging conditions such as high humidity. The FIT5A digital load cell, heart of weigh fillers, has been upgraded by HBM with full IP68 and IP69K protection, even at the connector, has slim design, requiring minimal space in rotational fillers, and has been optimized in every small detail for use in weigh fillers machinery in food industry.
Integrated filters and a filling algorithm make it perfectly suitable for batching tasks, and the cell offer 1000% overload stability, even withstanding cleaning crews stepping on it while working. Available in different versions, with maximum capacity up to 50 kg, in extended version the FIT5A is also capable of autonomously controlling valves, thus taking over the entire filling process not requiring an additional PLC. Tried and testing filling algorithm provides many specialized functions, such as bottle breakage detection, prepared for every filling and batching task. The operation via free PanelX software saves valuable development time.
