Figure 1-1. CW-90B/90XB Bench Scale The CW-90B and CW-90XB are both NTEP-certified and available in a 10" x 10" (254 mm x 254 mm) and 12" x 12" (304 mm x 304 mm) platform with capacities from 5 to 100 lb (2.5 to 50 kg). The light capacity scales are constructed with 304 stainless steel to withstand many years of rugged use.
Do not operate or work on this equipment unless you have read and understand the instructions and warnings in this manual. Failure to follow the instructions or heed the warnings could result in injury or death. Contact any Rice Lake Weighing Systems dealer for replacement manuals. Proper care is your responsibility.
Immediately after unpacking, visually inspect the scale to ensure that the unit is undamaged. The shipping carton should contain the bench scale and this manual. If the bench scale was damaged in shipment, notify Rice Lake Weighing Systems and the shipper immediately.
Connecting the Load Cell Cable The CW-90B and CW-90XB come with a standard 10 foot or 34 inch color-coded load cell cable. See your indicator manual to determine the proper load cell cable input connectors. Important Do not cut the load cell cable. The load cell cable is temperature compensated for an exact cable length.
It is recommended that the scale be “exercised” by loading it with test weights. Do this two or three times before calibrating to make sure that the scale is seated. To calibrate the CW-90B/90XB scale, place test weights on the scale platform equal to 70 - 100% of the scale’s capacity.
