SIWAREX FTA Weighing Module


The SIWAREX FTA (Flexible Technology, Automatic Weighing Instrument) from Siemens is a versatile and flexible weighing module. It can be used wherever a scale needs to work automatically according to a defined plan.

The module can be used on its own, however it has been designed for use with SIMATIC.

The functionality of the scale includes, non-automatic, automatic for balancing, automatic for catch weighing and automatic for discontinuous totalising.

Features and Benefits


• Uniform structure and universal communication

• Uniform project planning with SIMATIC

• Direct application in SIMATIC automation system

• Application in the decentralised system concept by connecting to PROFIBUS DP/PROFINET through ET 200M

• Weight measurement or force to resolutions of 16 million parts

• Precision of 3 x 6000 d, calibratable (0.5 μV per e)

• Calibratable display with SIMATIC HMI standard operator panels

• Several dosage speeds

• Smooth or step controlled dosage control

• Parameter definable inputs and outputs

• Standalone operation possible

• Extensive diagnostic functions

Product Application Information


Typical fields of application are:

• Liquid filling

• Bagging in a packaging system

• Weighing catch levels, level decrease and fill weighing

• Catch level testing

• Material loading with totalising

Where weighing technology requires high speed and precision, the SIWAREX FTA is the optimal solution. The high-resolution scales can be built to work precisely over broad areas.
