3.1.3. Finding the best location
Position the equipment with these points in mind:
•
Intense direct sunlight can harm the display.
•
Do not locate near magnetic material or equipment/Indicators which use magnets
in their design.
•
Avoid areas which have extreme variations in room temperatures. Temperatures
outside the Indicator’s specifications will affect the weighing accuracy of this product.
•
Do not open the Indicator if there is any evidence of damage to it or any other
scale component or supporting structure.
•
When selecting the right location for the Indicator and the scale, keep the
components completely away from all high water, such as low-lying areas that
may flood, and away from any drain pipes.
IMPORTANT INSTALLATION NOTICE
•
All load cells, load cell cables and interconnecting cables used to connect all
scale components shall be located a minimum distance of 36” inches
away from all single and multiple phase high energy circuits and electric current
carrying conductors.
•
This includes digital weight indicators, junction boxes, sectional
controllers, and power supplies.
•
This includes any peripheral devices, such as printers, remote
displays, relay boxes, remote terminals, card readers, and auxiliary
data entry devices.
•
Also included is the scale components themselves, such as 120 volt
AC, 240 volt AC, 480 volt AC and electric supply of higher voltage
wiring runs and stations, AC power transformers, overhead or buried
cables, electric distribution panels, electric motors, florescent and
high intensity lighting which utilize ballast assemblies, electric heating
equipment, traffic light wiring and power, and relay boxes.
•
All scale components, including digital weight indicators and peripheral
devices are not designed to operate on internal combustion engine
driven electric generators and other similar equipment.
Electric arc welding can severely damage scale components such as
digital weight indicators, junction boxes, sectional controllers, power
supplies, and load cells.
