Other available options include custom frames for pit installations, and access ramps for all sizes and models of the RoughDeck. Decks designed for use in pits can be ordered with holes drilled in the deck directly above each foot for adjusting foot height with a screwdriver from above. See Section 4.4 on page 12 for replacement part and optional equipment part numbers.
Keep hands, feet and loose clothing away from moving parts. Operating Requirements The following are basic operating requirements for the RoughDeck floor scale. Electrical Grounding For systems where the scale is connected to a 115 VAC circuit, the indicator must be directly connected to an earth ground with a ground interface cable of no more than 3Ω...
Remove all packing material and inspect scale for visible damage caused during shipment. All RoughDeck models have threaded holes in the deck to allow installation of eye bolts with shoulders for use when lifting the scale with chains or using a spreader bar.
For installations using access ramps, mounting plates are not necessary as the ramps have built-in mounting plates to secure the scale feet. SCALE DECK .812" DIA 4.50" MOUNTING PLATE FOOT Figure 2-2. Mounting Plate Installation RoughDeck Low Profile Floor Scale Installation Manual...
Junction Box Connections The indicator terminal strip is used to connect the main cable to the indicator which is shown in Figure 2-3 Determine the indicator’s load cell input connections from the operating manual. Run a cable from your indicator terminal into the junction box and make the connections.
Debris, floor sweepings, or material spills may accumulate in the pit and interfere with scale operation. You should periodically clean the pit. All RoughDeck models have threaded holes for eye bolts so the scale can be easily lifted from the pit.
Access Ramps Access ramps for RoughDeck floor scales are designed to bolt to the floor, with built-in mounting plates that attach to the scale feet. When used with access ramps, side movement of the scale is automatically eliminated, and no other mounting plates are necessary.
70% - 80% of the scale’s capacity. If several weights are used, they should be evenly distributed around the platform. Perform a span calibration. Remove the test weights and check the zero reading. Repeat the calibration process if necessary. RoughDeck Low Profile Floor Scale Installation Manual...
