4 Installation and commissioning, operating instructions
4.1 Conditions applicable to the place of installation
-
Level installation surface
-
It must be ensured that the location is free from vibrations and that
installation is carried out in as dry an area as possible that is not subjected
to drafts.
-
Arrange the equipment in such a way as to facilitate operation, working
procedures and service.
-
As far as systems subjected to compulsory calibration are concerned, the
person weighing must have an unobstructed view from the evaluation
equipment to the place of weighing.
The weighing system is not suitable for the following environmental areas:
-
Potentially explosive areas
-
Areas subjected to vibrations and jarring
External temperature ranges with temperatures below -10°C or
-
above +40°C
4.2 Installation of the weighing system
Unpack the weighing system carefully at the place of installation paying special
attention to the connecting cables.
Weighing belts or roller conveyor tracks may only be installed on the load carrier
after consulting with KERN.
Moving parts must not be able to re-charge.
Power-driven weighing belts or roller conveyor tracks must comply with the
requirements of the 98/37/EC directive on machinery.
4.3 Function test/ready-to-operate
An automatic function test is carried out as soon as the FIS is connected to the
mains supply.
The weighing terminal is operative when a weight value is displayed.
Maximum weighing accuracy is reached following a short warm-up period.
It is favourable to leave the weighing terminal connected to the mains voltage
for the entire working day.
A consistent operating temperature and highest possible balance accuracy are
achieved in this way.
Please be sure to observe chapter 13 on calibration (CAL).
