Regarding whether the weighing instrument should accumulate data
Thread Content
The weighing instrument is interlocked with the valve; when a certain weight is reached, the valve closes and gets stuck. In this case, is it necessary to accumulate data?
The cumulative amount is not being output. I think the cumulative amount can be calculated using algorithms.
I would like to ask everyone: when it is mentioned that process conditions should be accumulated, what does accumulation mean? I’m not quite sure. Could you all please explain it? Thank you
:) The scale displays the flow rate of the material in real time, for example 5 t/h; this value keeps changing and can be high or low. Accumulation: On the other hand, process engineers are also interested in knowing how much material has passed through in total over this period of time (this is an integral operation, similar to a water meter at home)
The answer seems to have strayed a bit from the topic. As for whether accumulation is necessary, I’m not sure what type of weighing device you have. If the material keeps flowing onto the weighing device and then immediately flows off again, then accumulation is required； If there is only an inflow of materials and no outflow over a period of time, then accumulation is not necessary. Which type are you? Generally, the former is more common; the latter is more like a weighbridge
