Accessories Industry Ohaus Discrete I/O Kit, 2-In/4-Out, R71

The Accessories Industry Ohaus Discrete I/O Kit, 2-In/4-Out, R71 is a versatile interface accessory designed for Ohaus Ranger 7000 (R71) weighing systems. It enables seamless integration between the scale and external control devices, allowing automation, process control, and data communication in industrial environments. This kit helps users expand the capabilities of their weighing setup, making it ideal for applications that require fast, precise, and automated operation.

Features

The Discrete I/O Kit provides two input channels and four output channels, giving users flexible control over connected equipment such as relays, alarms, feeders, or PLCs. It allows the Ranger 7000 to send or receive digital signals based on user-defined weight thresholds or events. This functionality supports applications like checkweighing, batching, filling, or process monitoring.

Ohaus engineers built the R71 I/O Kit with industrial-grade components to ensure stable communication and long-term reliability. It easily connects through the indicator’s interface port and offers plug-and-play compatibility, reducing setup time. The kit also includes all necessary connectors and cables for quick installation. Furthermore, its compact design fits neatly inside the indicator housing without affecting other functions.
