3 INTRODUCTION
Overview
FT-112(D) Panel weighing indicator is economic and powerful state-of-the-art indicator for industrial weighing
applications like basic weighing, checkweighing, classifying, peak holding, labelling, filling and totalization etc.
This compact instrument provides flexible solutions besides its high-speed weighing and interfacing features.
The weighing indicator has two identification data memory each has 500 items record size, 500 items record
size specific tare memory and 500 items set memory which has 6 set values for each item.
Digital inputs and outputs of the instrument can be programmed as a Remote IO on the fieldbus. This feature
gives advantage to eliminate additional PLC in the cabinet for only having remote IO’s.
The scales equipped with FT-112(D) Panel weighing indicator can be used in all kind of industrial areas up
harsh to wet and hygienic environments with its fast and efficient cleaning that was designed and built
according to the international guidelines.

4 INSTALLATION
PRECAUTION: Read this section carefully before installation of the instrument. Applying the
recommendations in this section will increase your system reliability and its long-term performance.
Recommendations
4.1.1 Environment
The weighing indicator should be placed in an area which is clean, not getting direct sun light if possible,
having a temperature between -15 ºC and +55 ºC and humidity not exceeding 80% non-condensing. All
external cables should be installed safely to avoid mechanical damages.
This instrument is very low level signal measuring instrument. To avoid electrical noise, it should be separated
from equipment that produce electrical noise. The instrument body must be connected to the good ground
against the electromagnetic disturbances. Load cell cable must be separated from other cables especially
from power cables if possible. If there are electrical noise-generating equipment such as heavy load switches,
motor control equipment, inductive loads etc., please pay attention to the EMC interference and take all the
prevention. Connect parallel reverse diodes to the DC inductive loads like relays, solenoids etc. to minimize
voltage peaks on the DC power lines.
4.1.2 Cabling
- All cables coming to the instrument shall be high quality and shielded.
- Distance from load cell cables, interface cables and DC power supply cables to power line cables shall
be minimum 30 cm. The separate cable tray usage for these low signal level cables is strongly
recommended.
- Shields of all cables should be connected to the grounding screws under terminals as shown at the
picture below.
Figure 4.1–The shield connection to the protective earth.
4.1.3 Electrical Connection
- Always remember that FT-112(D) Panel terminal is very low voltage measuring instrument used in the
industrial environment. Your proper installation increases reliability and performance of the instrument.
- Only trained persons should interface the instrument against malfunction at installation.
- If the energy condition of your plant is not good enough, prepare a special power line for DC power
supply in the cabinet.
- The quality of your plant grounding will provide weighing accuracy and the safety of FT-112(D) Panel.
If grounding of your plant is not good enough, prepare a special grounding.
- Power off the instrument before connecting or disconnecting any peripheral instrument.
- The shielded cable usage and ground connection of the cables’ shields will increase the immunity of
FT-112(D) Panel against electrical disturbances.
- All required electrical connections should be done as described in the installation section.
- If you have to service the terminal, turn the power off and wait at least 30 seconds before opening
housing.

4.1.4 Location of the Peripheral Connections
The electrical terminals are located on the rear of the instrument as shown in the picture below.
Figure 4.2 –The rear view of the instrument and terminal names.
Cleaning
Warning:Disconnect the instrument from power source before start cleaning for your safety.
FT-112(D) Panel weighing indicator is designed for using in wet, hygienic and harsh environment. To maintain
the instrument, never use harsh abrasive cleaners or solvents. Wipe the instrument with a soft cloth slightly
dampened with warm soapy water or with mild detergent.
Disposal
In conformance with the European Directive 2002/96 EC Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE),
this device may not be disposed of with domestic waste. This rule also applies to the non-EU countries,
according to their specific regulations. Please dispose of this product in accordance with local regulations at
the collecting point specified for electrical and electronic equipment. For your questions, please contact the
responsible local authority. Thank you for your attention to environmental protection.

Mechanical Installation
Before starting the installation, prepare the weighing indicator location on the cabinet front.
Prepare the Protective Earth (PE) cable to grounding the FT-112(D) Panel housing. The protective earth
should be as good as possible for scale reliability.
Use high quality and EMC certified DC power source in the cabinet.
Follow the requirements on cabling. Refer to page 16.
Cut the panel of the cabinet to install the
instrument.
Insert the instrument into the panel after placing
the waterproof sealing rubber between the panel
and FT-112(D) Panel.
Place holder parts of the instrument to the both
side of the instrument.
Use 2 pcs M4 screws to mount the instrument to
the panel after alignment.

Electrical Connections
4.6.1 Analogue Load Cell Connection (Only FT-112 Panel)
To avoid damages, the load cell wiring should be made carefully before energizing the instrument. Load cell
connection schematics are in Figure 4.3
The same polarity sense and excitation pins of the load cell connector should be short circuited for 4-wire
installation. If you have junction box in your system, use 6 wire cable between indicator and the junction box,
and short circuit these pins in junction box for better performance as shown in the Figure 4.3
