Description
The Hardy Process Solutions Filler/Dispenser/IBC controller
is part of a complete line of application specific process
weighing instruments. The Filler/Dispenser/IBC instrument
is available as an HI 3010, a stand alone controller with a
display (4 lines; 20 characters) and key pad or an HI 3010R,
blind remote stand-alone controller, swivel mounted with no
display. A remote 6 digit, 7 segment LED display is avail-
able as an option for the HI 3010R. The Filler/Dispenser
controller has built-in totalizers that keep you up to date as to
the following:
• History of Totals for each of the twelve
(12) internally stored material configura-
tions include:
1. Number of Cycles
2. Amount of material in a cycle
The Hardy Filler/Dispenser/IBC is designed with output
alarms, for example:
• Over Fills/Under Fills
• Feed Time-outs
• Out of Tolerance
• Not OK to Fill
• Too Many Jogs
• Discharge gate is not responding
• Change an Intermediate Bulk container
The HI 3010 Filler/Dispenser/IBC is field configurable for
filling, dispensing and IBC (Intermediate Bulk Container)
applications. This instrument is a stand-alone controller with
fast and slow speeds and auto-adjusting preacts for precise,
rapid process control. Displays keep the user up to date as to
the number of cycles and amount of material in the cycle. In
addition the instrument maintains a history of the totals for
each of the twelve internally stored material configurations.
Output alarms warn the operator of overfills, feed time-outs,
out of zero tolerance, not OK to fill, too many jogs, if the
discharge gate is not responding or when to change an inter-
mediate bulk container. The Filler/Dispenser/IBC contains
Hardy’s core features:
• WAVERSAVER

- Eliminates the effects
of vibration on the scale.
• C2

Electronic Calibration - Calibration
without test weights.
• SMM (Secure Memory Module) - Mem-
ory for manual transfer of configuration
data to another HI 3010 instrument(s).
All of Hardy’s 3000 Series instrumentation is loaded with
standard features like a selectable 10/100 BaseT Ethernet
port and an embedded web server to link performance diag-
nostics and setup data to and from your local Intranet,
Extranet, VPN or via the Internet (World Wide Web). A stan-
dard Devicenet interface allows multiple applications to be
viewed and controlled from one display and allows 3rd party
I/O to be easily added to the system. Mapped I/O saves you
wiring costs by distributing the I/O where you need it at the
process or in the control room. The controllers act as “Mas-
