Calibration
General
After the WD600 has been installed in accordance with the installation procedure,
calibration of the weighing system must be done in conjunction with the selected
integrator. Refer to the integrator instruction manual for programming and calibration.
The calibration is initially done using a calibration test weight. Where possible, material
tests are recommended to achieve maximum accuracy. (For more information about
material tests refer to the integrator manual.)
Test Load
The test load (stated in kilograms per meter or pounds per foot) for the WD600 is
stamped on top of the calibration test weight. Enter this value into the integrator as the
test load programming parameter.
If the actual weigh span (see diagram on page 8) differs from the design data provided at
time of purchase, recalculate and re-enter a new test load value as follows:
test load (kg/m or lbs/ft) = weight of calibration weight (kg or lbs)
Zero
Perform the zero calibration as described in the calibration section of the selected
integrator manual.
Span
1.
Hang the calibration test weight from the hole in the top load cell mount.
2.
Perform the span calibration as described in the calibration section of the selected
integrator instruction manual.
3.
After the span calibration has been completed, remove the calibration test weight
and store it in a convenient location.
