The Hardy HI 6200 analog single channel weight transmitter series are high performance single-channel processors featuring either 4-20 mA analog or EtherNet/IP (previously released).

They enable OEMs and systems integrators to build features like electronic calibration, high resolution, and fast update rates into their machines and process skids. Hardware design and the company’s WAVERSAVER filtering technology ensure fast, stable weight readings even in adverse conditions where mechanical vibrations can plague process control. A color touch-screen interface gives access to advanced features such as C2 electronic calibration, Zero and Tare functions. The HI 6200 EIP version uses a proactive scale design with bidirectional communications to reap the benefits of IIoT device-level connectivity though the built-in Webserver or directly via the UDP layer. All versions include a set of exclusive productivity tools; the HI 6200 EtherNet/IP also features embedded Webserver for setup, monitoring, and control from any browser-anywhere on the network; INTEGRATED TECHNICIAN instrument diagnostics; and a suite of Premier Integration tools such as Rockwell EDS_AOPs and Faceplate/Add-on-Instructions.
