The Hardy HI 3030 is a flexible weight
controller that can monitor and control up
to four scales simultaneously. It can act as a
front end to a PLC, PC or DCS system for
applications such as level, batching, filling,
dispensing, and check weighing, or as a
stand alone for simple control or weight
monitoring.
NETWORKING
As a bridge to a PLC, its four scales can share
one network connection, whether it is
DeviceNet, ControlNet, EtherNet/IP Profibus or
,
Analog. You can also link additional HI 3030s
with their multiple scales and share the same
network connection. Just like the other Series
3000 products, you can also configure or
monitor the HI 3030 using a web browser or
network interface.
THE PLC SOLUTION
Imagine you have eight storage tanks and
would like to monitor and control the weight in
each of the tanks using your PLC. You could
buy two HI 3030s, each with four scale inputs
and tie them together with the built-in Ethernet
communications. Bring all eights scales back to
your PLC using just one of the HI 3030s and
one of its optional technologies:DeviceNet,
ControlNet, Profibus, or EtherNet/IP network
card. If you are in need of more than eight
storage tanks, you can connect up to 16
controllers, for a total of 64 scales, through
that same single interface.You save wiring,
time, and money.

THE STAND-ALONE SOLUTION
Let’s again take the example of the eight storage
tanks, but this time you wish to control tank
weights outside of the PLC. No problem! With or
without a connection to the PLC, you can set up
the HI 3030 to automatically refill each of the
storage vessels when they get to their individual
“low” levels. Now you can also save on
programming costs.
COMPLETE FLEXIBILITY
With the flexible I/O mapping and twelve
independent internal setpoints in the HI 3030,
you can direct alarms or enunciators to a local
output or to any point on the plant network.You
can even have an alarm emailed directly to you!
Don’t need a display or keypad on the controller?
Use the Blind Remote HI 3030R, and control or
configure the unit via your web browser or your
local network.
INTEGRATED TECHNICIAN®
The HI 3030's INTEGRATED TECHNICIAN,
used in conjunction with an IT Junction Box,
provides built-in system diagnostics that enable
you to troubleshoot and diagnose your
weighing system right from its front panel or a
web browser. You can read individual load
sensor voltages and weights, make
comparisons, and isolate individual system
components for quick and easy
troubleshooting.
