INTRODUCTION

This manual contains installation, operation and maintenance instructions for the VN Series Floor Scale.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Please follow these safety precautions:

•Never operate in hazardous areas.

•The VN Series may be used in dry environments only.

•The foundation at the installation site must be capable of safely supporting the weight of the floor scale

plus the weight of the maximum load.

•Ensure that vibrations due to machines near the installation site are kept to a minimum. This applies also

when the floor scale is integrated into conveying systems.

INSTALLATION

Unpacking

1. Remove the outer packaging materials from the

top and sides of the floor scale.

2. Install the two included eye bolts into opposing

sides of the floor scale, see Figure 1.

3. Lift the floor scale from the packaging material,

see caution notice.

CAUTION: THE FLOOR SCALE IS VERY HEAVY. ALWAYS USE AN APPROPRIATE HOIST TO LIFT IT

FROM THE PACKAGING OR TO MOVE IT INTO THE REQUIRED POSITION.

Figure 1. Hoisting Method.

EN-2 VN Series Floor Scale

Positioning

Ensure the surface is flat in the area where the scale will be positioned, especially in the region of the load cell feet. Small

differences in height can be compensated by adjusting the load cell feet.

1. If an Indicator is included with the floor scale ensure that it is kept with the floor scale during positioning as there may

be an attached connecting cable.

2. With the floor scale positioned over the final work area, remove the 4 shipping feet (if installed).

3. Install the 4 load cell feet (if not already installed).

4. Lower the scale on to the final work area.

5. Check that the floor scale is level; check that the 4 feet are in contact with the floor; make adjustments by rotating the

nuts on the load cell feet. Use an external level.

6. Ensure that the floor scale’s output cable does not become trapped or crushed during lifting or positioning.

Foot Plates

Foot Plates (available separately) mount around the feet of the Floor Scale and prevent movement of the scale. Installation of

Floor Plates must be done before final placement of the Floor Scale. Refer to the section on Accessories for Foot Plate

installation.

Connecting an Indicator

Certain Floor Scale systems will have an Indicator already attached to the cable end. If the Indicator is not attached or if the

Indicator is purchased separately follow the steps listed below to make the proper connections.

1. Route the Floor Scale cable to the position where the

Indicator will be mounted.

2. Consult the installation instructions of the Indicator to

properly attach the cable connections inside the Indicator,

3. The Signal names of the Floor Scale wires are shown in

Table 1, Floor Scale Wiring Color Code.

CAUTION: Ensure that the cable is protected against possible

damage when routed to the Indicator.

OPERATION

For setup, calibration and proper operation, refer to the instruction manual supplied with the indicator. Refer to the specifications

section of the floor scale for capacity, and readability information.

For continued best operating performance:

•Avoid falling loads, shocks and hard lateral impacts

•When weighing, all items should be centrally located on the floor scale and not over

hanging the sides or the ramps.

•Verify the calibration of the floor scale system at regular intervals.

Operating Limits

Although the floor scales have extremely rugged construction, certain load limits must not be exceeded. Depending on the type of

loading, the maximum safe static load, i.e. the maximum admissible loading, is shown in Table 2.

MAINTENANCE

Daily Checks

•Check that the feet are properly seated in the holes of each load cell.

•Check that the 4 feet are in contact with the floor.

•Check that the scale is free from debris, especially under the edges of the scale.

•Check that there is no damage to the connecting cable.

Cleaning

Risk of Electrical Shock

Disconnect the power source before cleaning the scale with any liquids.

Maintenance of the floor scale is limited to regular cleaning.

- Wipe surfaces with a damp cloth.

- Use only common household cleaning agents.

- Never use water spray or high pressure cleaners.

- Keep the air gap at the edge of the Floor Scale free of debris.

INSTALLATION OF OPTIONAL FOOT PLATES AND RAMPS

Installation of each Ramp also requires the installation of one set of Foot Plates. Foot Plates are available separately and are

included with the Ramp accessory kit. Refer to Figure 5 for mounting of the Foot Plates and Ramps. Installation of Floor Plates

and Ramps must be done before final placement of the Floor Scale.

Notes: 1. Expanding bolts require 12.5mm (0.5”) diameter holes drilled 60mm (2.4”) deep into the floor surface.

2. Foot Plate center to center dimensions W and L are shown in Table 6.

3. The Floor Scale must be positioned so that the load cell feet rest within the large holes of the Foot Plates.

4. Ensure that a free air gap exists between the sides of the Floor Scale and the edges of the Ramps.
