CSL NEUTRON

Modernize any scale without replacing it

Neutron is a compact connectivity module that turns existing serial weighing devices into secure, connected systems — without changing the scale.

Available in OEM and standalone versions for retrofit, embedded, and application-specific deployments.

Keep existing scales

IT-approved security

Open & vendor-independent

Remote control & support

Why buyers choose Neutron

Keep existing scales

Avoid costly scale replacement projects. Neutron connects directly to existing devices and unlocks digital capabilities without modifying firmware or infrastructure.

Enterprise-grade security

Supports WPA2/WPA3 Enterprise, EAP-TLS/TTLS, and TLS encryption, allowing seamless deployment within corporate IT environments.

Works with existing infrastructure

Integrates with your current network, ERP, MES, WMS, or cloud systems using standard interfaces and open protocols.

Remote fleet management & support

Monitor, configure, and update all devices remotely through a single platform, reducing on-site maintenance and service costs.
THE PROBLEM

Why connecting scales to the cloud is still a challenge

Most industrial scales were never designed for modern cloud architectures or enterprise IT requirements.

Legacy interfaces

RS-232 / RS-485 with no native cloud support.

IT security restrictions

Corporate policies can block deployments.

No enterprise Wi-Fi

Hard to deploy in regulated networks.

Vendor lock-in & costly service

Proprietary ecosystems and on-site diagnostics increase cost.

Modern cloud integration should not require redesigning your scale or compromising security.

Neutron solves the integration and security layer, while keeping your scale unchanged.

HOW IT WORKS

Connect existing scales to modern systems

Neutron acts as a secure bridge between the serial side of a weighing device and the digital side of your infrastructure. On the device side, it connects through UART, RS-232, or RS-485. On the system side, it can communicate with cloud services, servers, and applications using modern network and API-based methods. Configuration can be done through web tools, Bluetooth BLE, or other CloudScaleLink utilities, making deployment fast in both OEM and retrofit scenarios.

System side

MQTT, REST, WebSocket, TCP/IP, cloud platforms, custom apps

Manufacturer-independent by design

Neutron works with any scale or weighing indicator, regardless of brand. Weight data is securely transmitted using industry-standard protocols.

No proprietary protocols. No vendor lock-in. Just secure, open connectivity.

INTEGRATION

Built for real integration

Neutron is designed for projects where a scale must become part of a wider digital workflow. It supports modern communication approaches used by cloud platforms, server applications, enterprise systems, and custom software environments.

Supported integration paths

  • MQTT / MQTTS for brokers, IoT platforms, and publish-subscribe workflows

  • REST / HTTP for applications, services, and API-driven integrations

  • WebSocket / WSS for live two-way browser and cloud communication

  • TCP/IP client and server modes for direct socket-based integrations

SECURITY

Built with security at the core

Neutron is designed with security as a foundation. Secure Boot and Flash Encryption help protect firmware integrity and sensitive data stored on the device, while only trusted, signed firmware can be executed. For cloud connectivity, all communication is protected using TLS encryption, helping secure data exchange between Neutron and external systems. This security-first approach makes Neutron well suited for professional OEM, industrial, and cloud-connected deployments.

Wi-Fi security for every environment

Whether you connect through a simple local router or a highly controlled corporate network, Neutron supports the security options required for reliable deployment.

Most industrial scales were never designed for modern IT policies. Neutron bridges that gap with Wi-Fi security options that fit everything from standalone installations to enterprise-grade infrastructure.
