Calibration

After all parts of the weighing system (belt scale, speed sensor, integrator) have been properly
installed and connected, the weighing system and integrator must be calibrated. The calibration
is initially done using the test weight(s), however material tests are recommended to achieve the
greatest accuracy. Refer to the integrator operating instructions for programming and calibration
details and for information about material tests. All operating instructions are available for
download at our web site:

6.2

Test load

The test load value is required for calibration of the integrator. Enter the calculated value into the
associated programming parameter of the integrator in kilograms per meter or pounds per foot.
The test load value is calculated as follows:
Test load = test weight mass
where idler spacing = L/2 [minimum 0.6 m (2.0')]
