  • 6-Wire Load Cell Connection: Provides automatic compensation for long signal cables.
  • 7-Digit LED Display: Large 0.8-inch LED digits provide clear weight visibility.
  • AC/DC Dual Power: Supports mains power and an external rechargeable battery for flexible installation.
  • Large Data Storage: Stores up to 1001 weighing records, 1000 vehicle ID and tare records, and 201 commodity records.
  • Flexible Communication: Standard RS232 with optional RS422 or RS485 interfaces supports computer and remote data applications.
  • External Display Support: Can connect to a remote large scoreboard through current-loop or RS232 communication.
  • External Printing Support: The A9 has no built-in printer but provides interfaces for compatible external printing equipment.
Working Principle Analog load cells installed beneath the weighing platform generate a small electrical signal proportional to the applied load. The A9 indicator supplies excitation voltage to the load cells and receives the combined measurement signal through the weighing junction system.

Its Sigma-Delta A/D converter converts the analog signal into digital weighing data. After calibration, zero tracking and signal processing, the measured weight is displayed on the LED screen and can also be stored, transmitted to a computer or external display, or sent to compatible printing equipment.

Installation & Maintenance
  • Confirm that load-cell type, resistance and total number are compatible with the indicator before connection.
  • Use the correct 6-wire load-cell wiring configuration and ensure all terminals are securely connected.
  • Keep signal cables separated from high-power motor and electrical cables to reduce interference.
  • Perform zero setting and calibration after installation or major scale maintenance.
  • Use the two-point correction function where required by the weighing-system calibration procedure.
  • Protect the indicator from direct water spray, excessive condensation, dust accumulation and mechanical impact.
  • Check battery condition and charging status regularly when DC backup power is used.
  • Verify RS232, RS422 or RS485 communication settings before connecting computers or remote devices.
  • Back up important weighing records before service or configuration changes.
  • Electrical installation and calibration should be carried out by qualified personnel familiar with electronic weighing systems.
Product FAQ

Q: What type of weighing systems can use the A9?
A: It is designed for static electronic weighing systems such as platform scales, floor scales, livestock scales and truck scales using compatible analog load cells.

Q: How many load cells can be connected?
A: The A9 supports up to eight 350-ohm load cells or sixteen 700-ohm load cells.

Q: Does the A9 have a built-in printer?
A: No. The standard A9 does not have a built-in printer. The A9+P version provides an integrated printer, while the A9 can connect to compatible external printing equipment.

Q: Can the indicator connect to a computer?
A: Yes. RS232 communication is standard, while RS422 and RS485 are available as optional interfaces.

Q: Can a remote large display be connected?
A: Yes. The indicator provides an interface for an external scoreboard using current-loop or RS232 communication.

Q: Does it work when mains power is unavailable?
A: Yes. The indicator supports an external 6 V / 10 Ah rechargeable battery in addition to AC power.
