4.2. OPERATING PROCEDURES
• The Zero, Tare and the AZT functions require the displayed weight to be stable
before these functions will operate.
• The weight reading is stable if the variation in weight is less than the programmed
MOTION BAND .
4.3. GROSS, TARE AND NET Weight
There are three terms used when weighing an object’s or
load’s amount.
The NET WEIGHT (product only) is the GROSS
WEIGHT (total amount) minus the TARE WEIGHT
(container only).
NET WEIGHT = Gross Weight – Tare Weight
WORKING EXAMPLE
A full can of house paint is an object to be weighed. The empty can is the TARE
weight. The paint is the NET weight. Together they equal the GROSS weight.
