Siemens SIWAREXCF Module

SIWAREX CF is a transmitter for connecting strain-gauge sensors for tasks such as measuring force and torque. The compact module is easy to install in all SIMATIC automation systems. Complete data access to the current measured values is then possible via the SIMATIC.

SIWAREX CF is a compact function module (FM) of the SIMATIC S7 and can be snapped direct onto the SIMATIC ET 200S backplane bus. Assembly and wiring are also greatly simplified by using rails with snap-on technology.

The sensors and the power supply are connected via the standard connection block.

SIWAREX CF provides the voltage supply required by the EMS. The force produces a corresponding measuring signal, which is then further processed in the SIWAREX CF module.

The signal is amplified, coarse-filtered, and then converted to a digital value. A connectable digital filter can additionally reduce noise on the measuring signal.
