Siemens Milltronics MSI belt scale now also manufactured in India

The Milltronics MSI belt scale will now be manufactured locally in India, in addition to its existing manufacturing location in Canada. Local production means reduced costs for Indian industries as well as reduced time to market. Customers can now expect delivery in less than 3-4 weeks after placing their order. These scales will come with the same world-class quality and industry-leading weighing technology customers have come to expect from Siemens.

Siemens Milltronics belt scales combine simple drop-in installation, low maintenance, and repeatable accuracy for productive operation. All designs have no moving

parts, include corrosion-resistant load cells, and are designed for 150% of rated capacity and 300% of ultimate load cell capacity. With approvals for hazardous locations and international legal-for-trade approvals, Milltronics belt scales can be used in almost any industrial environment or application. They are proven in a wide range of tough applications, from extraction (in mines, quarries and pits), to power generation, iron and steel, food processing and chemicals.

Product Launch

Siemens introduces Siwarex WP231, a versatile weighing module for the Simatic S7-1200, that is suitable for monitoring filling levels in silos and bins and for goods being weighed on platform scales. It is the first weighing module for this control and is intended for industries requiring a high level of measurement accuracy, such as the Food & Beverage, Pharmaceutical and Chemical industries. Furthermore it can be used in explosive atmospheres as well. Ethernet connections and an RS485 RTU interface with Modbus protocol enables it to be operated from a Modbus HMI panel without being connected to the Simatic S7-1200 control.

Siwarex WP231 weighing module can be fully integrated into the Simatic S7-1200 control, and its parameters can be quickly and easily set via the TIA Portal engineering platform. The module has four digital inputs and outputs and one analog output. The Siwarex WP231 can be

Siwarex WP231- a versatile weighing module for Simatic S7-1200

connected to various systems and operator panels via an Ethernet or RS485 interface with Modbus protocol. This makes it possible for the module to be used in various applications. Additionally, the module can be operated directly from a Modbus HMI panel in the event of failure of the control unit.

Due to its high resolution – one million parts – and a measurement cycle of 10 milliseconds, the Siwarex WP231 is able to measure with a high degree of accuracy. Clear menus mean that the weighing module is easy to operate, whether in conjunction with the Simatic S7-1200 or via a directly connected HMI panel. Moreover, thanks to its automatic set-up function, the measuring system is ready to use within a few minutes.

Answers for Industry

A ray of hope in the dark

A mine winder is a lifeline of any mine. Many of the mines in India use mine winders for transportation of men and material. They are often the only means of transport for hundreds of personnel in the scary depths of the mine. An occasional failure of power or control may result in a mine load of material and people to be suspended midway for hours. Additionally, absence of any means to communicate with the people in the control room may lead to panic and at times fatal evasive reactions as well. A reliable means of communication then becomes the most important tool to secure help and assurance. The battery powered Siemens SCALANCE W786 along with S7 1200 provides a rugged and extremely reliable means of communication and alarms between those in the mine winder and in the control room. This trustworthy solution, which is a boon for the mine workers, is rapidly being adopted in mines in India.

A smart meter for a smart water grid

The Municipal Corporation of a port city in India was using mechanical turbine meters for measuring industrial water consumption. However the customer was looking for an alternative technology to replace their mechanical turbine meters

due to its associated problems such as wear and tear leading to high maintenance, very low accuracy of 10% etc. Siemens offered its Mag 8000, battery operated Magmeters with wireless communication interfaced to the central control system. Readings from all the Mag 8000 measuring points installed across the city are collected together in the central SCADA system to monitor the water consumption at different time intervals.

This solution helped the Municipal Corporation to effectively monitor its water network and increase its water distribution revenue by approximately 40% annually. Also the customer was able to achieve reduction in their maintenance budget as Mag 8000 Battery magmeters do not have any moving parts. Accuracy of 0.5% offered in Mag 8000 has helped the Corporation to transparently invoice the customers based on their actual usage of

MSI Belt scale instrumental in generating green energy

Organic Recycling Systems Pvt. Ltd., a leading integrated solids waste management company uses Siemens MSI Belt scale system for weighing the ‘mixed urban waste’ moving over an open conveyor.

Unique parrellogram load cell design ensures that there are no moving parts in MSI belt scale. Absence of such moving pivot points makes the MSI belt scale an ideal choice since the performance is not affected by accumulation of waste around the belt scale. Despite a chemically aggressive solid waste, the suitable mounting and high protection class of the load cell ensures reliable operation.

water. Riding on this success, Siemens is well placed to associate with other Municipal Corporations and water supply boards for managing city water networks.

Accurate and repeatable performance of MSI belt scale has enabled the customer to achieve continuous feed of solids waste into the combustion chamber at a pre-defined speed. This is critical in efficient steam generation while achieving maximum heat recovery. Most importantly Siemens belt scale is instrumental in generating green energy from alternate sources!

answer with Moby D RFID system working at HF frequency along with reusable paper tags & high temperature passive tags. With the RFID system in place, the key quality parameters of the tobacco samples collected from various locations inside the factory were automatically recorded. This information then flows directly into the management system without any human intervention.

“Thanks to Siemens we finally have a reliable system to monitor the quality parameters of each cigarette manufactured in our factory” was how the customer reacted!

Quality became reality

One of the leading cigarette manufacturers in India approached Siemens for tracking & tracing of the tobacco samples from the process. For the manufacturer, each and every parameter of the tobacco sample was critical to determine the quality of the cigarette. For this, the

customer required a solution that would track the different blends & brands of the tobacco samples throughout the factory at different process areas.

Siemens provided the

Performance under pressure

One of the leading chiller manufacturers was facing challenges with vacuum pressure measurement.

Despite deploying various technologies, the customer was unable to achieve accurate and reliable vaccum measurements, which is highly critical in the absorption chillers.

Siemens provided the answer to the manufacturer’s challenge with the state-of-the-art piezo-resistive DSIII series absolute pressure transmitter.

In order to achieve highest reliability, the customer put this transmitter through various test cycles before using it on the application. In all the test results, Sitrans P DSIII emerged as the best choice for reliable measurement in the low vacuum range. In addition to the technical features of the transmitter, the customer also benefited from the excellent support received from Siemens configuration center in India.

Today, customer has migrated to Sitrans P DSIII for all the vacuum measurement applications.
