Enhance measurement or control applications with an ultra-fast A/D conversion rate of 366 Hz,
patented TraxDSP™ digital filtering technology, and an I/O bus update rate of 50 Hz. The IND570
delivers precision measurement data from milligrams to tons in a single cost effective package that
easily integrates into existing systems.
The versatile IND570 excels in controlling simple filling and dosing applications delivering best-in-
class performance for fast, precise, accurate results in manual, semi-automatic, or fully automatic
operations. Utilize the control capabilities of the IND570 to effectively manage project costs. Control
up to 20 digital outputs through the IND570 without intervention from a PLC. Target control outputs
can be latched, eliminating the need for external logic devices.
For more advanced filling, the Fill-570 Application Software adds additional sequences and
component inputs. Without complex and costly programming, quickly configure the Fill-570
advanced filling software, creating custom filling and dosing sequences along with blending
applications for up to 6 materials that cue operators and track process data, ultimately supporting
efficiency, quality and safety.
Whether communicating weight data to a PLC or providing an easier way to perform terminal
configuration, the IND570 offers multiple connectivity options to improve applications.
Direct PLC connectivity is available using 4-20mA Analog Output, PROFIBUS DP, DeviceNet,
ControlNet, EtherNet/IP or Modbus TCP protocols. Interfaces are also available for serial data via RS-
232/422/485 and Ethernet TCP/IP networking. A standard USB Host interface provides the ability to

NOT ALL VERSIONS OF THE IND570 ARE DESIGNED FOR USE IN HAZARDOUS (EXPLOSIVE) AREAS. REFER TO
THE DATA PLATE OF THE IND570 TO DETERMINE IF A SPECIFIC TERMINAL IS APPROVED FOR USE IN AN AREA
CLASSIFIED AS HAZARDOUS BECAUSE OF COMBUSTIBLE OR EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES.
The IND570 represents the latest in METTLER TOLEDO technology and is one of the
most versatile weighing terminals available today. Choose from conventional strain
gauge or high-precision electromagnetic force restoration weighing technologies.
Specify direct PLC or PC communication interfaces or digital I/O control. Combine
these selections with the option of panel or desk/wall/column-mounting, and the
IND570 is the perfect match for nearly any industrial weighing application, including:
· Basic Weighing
· Filling and Blending
· Drum filling
· Shipping and Receiving
