Description
The Hardy Instruments Filler/Dispenser/IBC controller is
part of a complete line of application specific process weigh-
ing and condition monitoring instruments. The Filler/Dis-
penser/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 available 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

The HI 3010 Filler/Dispenser/IBC is field configurable for
filling, dispensing and IBC (Intermediate Bulk Container)

each of the twelve internally stored material configurations.
Output alarms warn the operator of overfills, feed time-outs,
