  • Page 5: Introduction

    1.0 INTRODUCTION • The CFW series of scales provide an accurate, fast, versatile series of general purpose weighing scales with counting and check-weighing functions. • There are 2 series of scales- CFW scales are kilogram only scales and the CFWa scales offer changeable unit from pounds to kilograms. The scales share the same functions but special instructions will be given for the CFWa series to be able to change the weighing units.

  • Page 8: Installation

    3.0 INSTALLATION LOCATING THE SCALES • The scales should not be placed in a location that will reduce the accuracy. • Avoid extremes of temperature. Do not place in direct sunlight or near air conditioning vents. • Avoid unsuitable tables. The table or floor must be rigid and not vibrate.
  • Page 9: Setting Up The Scales

    Excess cable can be stored within the tube. • The CFW Series comes with a stainless steel platform packed separately. Place the platform in the base. • Level the scale by adjusting the four feet. If the scale rocks re-adjust the feet.
  • Page 10: Key Descriptions

    4.0 KEY DESCRIPTIONS [Zero] Sets the zero point for all subsequent weighing. The display shows zero. A secondary function is of "Enter" key used when setting up the value for the Parameters. [Tare] or Tares the container. Stores the current weight of the container in memory as tare value, subtracts the tare value from the total weight of the container and the sample and shows the results.
  • Page 11: Displays

    Selects the weighing unit to be displayed from those [Unit] or [U] which are enabled. See parameter F2 in section 7. A secondary function is to move the active/flashing digit to the right when setting values for the Parameters. Selects the Functions of the scale. If the scale is [Func] or [F] weighing, it will select parts counting.

    tared a second time if another type of product was to be added to the first one. Again only the weight that is added after taring will be displayed. • When the container is removed a negative value will be shown. If the scale was tared just before removing the container this value is the gross weight of the container plus all products that was removed.
  • Page 14 • Press the [Zero/Enter] key again when the number matches the number of parts used as the sample. As more weight is added the display will show the number of parts (pcs). • Pressing the [Pcs] key will display the unit weight (g/pcs), pressing it second time will display the net weight (pcs and kg) and the third time, it will be the count again (pcs).
  • Page 15: Check-Weighing

    CHECK-WEIGHING Check-weighing is a procedure to cause an alarm to sound when the weight on the scale meets or exceeds values stored in memory. The memory holds values for a high and a low limit. Either or both can be used. See PARAMETERS Section for the procedure.
  • Page 16: Accumulated Total

    Checkweighing facility can be set up during Weighing or Parts Counting by entering values as Low or/and High Limits keyed in by the user. The limits are displayed in kg or pcs respectively. Checkweighing during Weighing Checkweighing during Parts Counting To disable the Check-Weighing function enter zero into both limits by pressing the [Func/C] key when the current limits are shown then pressing [Zero/Enter] to store the zero values.
  • Page 17 • Remove the weight, allowing the scale to return to zero and put a second weight on. Press the [Print/M+] key, the display will show 2", then the new total and finally the value of the second "ACC weight. No. of accumulation of weights Total weight for 3 accumulations •...
  • Page 18: User Parameters

    7.0 USER PARAMETERS • The scale has 7 User Parameters that can be set by the user. To set these Parameters press the [Func] key. The display will show the first parameter, "F0 H-L". • Pressing the [Tare/ ] will cycle through the other parameters. •...
