Allen-Bradley 1769-2WS | Dual-Channel Weigh Scale Module

Overview

The Allen-Bradley 1769-2WS is a dual-channel weigh scale module designed for seamless integration with CompactLogix and MicroLogix 1500 controllers. Manufactured by Hardy Process Solutions, a Rockwell Automation Silver Technology Partner, this module is engineered to support up to eight (8) load cells and is ideal for high-accuracy weighing applications in industrial settings.

With a backplane current consumption of < 0.5 Amps at 5V DC, the 1769-2WS operates efficiently within the controller’s system. It accepts input signals ranging from -0.3mV to +15.3mV and provides +5V DC excitation output. The module's high resolution of 1:8,388,608 ensures precise weighing results, while its 100 updates per second conversion rate guarantees rapid data processing.

The module supports Net, Gross, and Rate-of-change weighing modes, providing flexibility for various applications. Calibration can be performed electronically (C2) or traditionally using test weights, ensuring ease of setup and high reliability. Designed for DIN-Rail or panel mounting, the 1769-2WS can be easily integrated into existing systems.
