IND256x Overview

The IND256x reflects the latest weighing technology from METTLER TOLEDO. The IND256x has
passed third-party certification for weighing in hazardous areas, and can be directly used in Zone
1/Zone 21 locations.
A high-performance single-range or multi-range weighing terminal, the IND256x uses analog load
cells to achieve reliable weighing at low cost, from grams to tons. It is easily integrated in an
existing weighing system.
By connecting the appropriate safety barrier or isolated barrier, the IND256x can provide various
intrinsically safe communication interfaces to communicate with PCs and printers in the safe area.
These features permit IND256x to support a majority of weighing applications in most industrial
fields, including:
