Each K-TRON SODER weigh feeder
is composed of components A, B, C and D.
This specification describes component C.
Use
The Smart Lopo Module (SLM) serves the purpose of operating, regulating and controlling a
single K-TRON SODER weigh feeder under the following conditions:
- DC motor
- Motor power 180 W max.; 180 to 200 V DC
- Single point weighing system or weigh bridge
The SLM was developed for the K2G and K-CL-24-KT20 weigh feeders without a separate
agitator
External operating panel with
housing
In addition, the control for a K-TRON Hurricane refill device is integrated.
Installation
The control module SLM is always installed in a housing at the feeder. The operating panel may
either be placed in the same housing or in a separate housing which can be attached or builtin anywhere as desired. Up to a distance of 10 m it may be powered by the controller; in the case
of distances up to 500 m by an external 24 V power supply.
Given in the three figures are three possible configurations:
- External housing with the operating panel
- SLM with operating panel at a K2G feeder
- SLM with operating panel at a K-CL-24-KT20 feeder

Programming
The initial settings (equipment and process data) are entered into the controller only once during
initial programming.
All entries are made through the easy to operate key pad. The data may be displayed any time
through the display.

Operation
The operation is very simple. The data entry is accomplished
with keys, which are marked with easily recognizable symbols.
This data, as well as the resulting operation data, are filed in a
sort of index. They can be leafed through and looked at with the
Next Key.
