1.3 Usage precautions
Do not use the scale as a dynamic weighing instrument. Even if small quantities of
weighed material are added or removed from the weighing pan of the instrument,
the reading should be taken only after stabilisation of the measurement results. Do
not place any magnetic materials on the weighing pan, as this can cause damage
to the measuring system of the instrument.
Be sure to avoid impact shock and overloading the scale in excess of the
prescribed maximum measuring range (max capacity), minus any possible tare
weight that has been applied.
Never use the scale in an environment where explosion is possible. This scale has
not been adjusted for operation in hazardous areas.
There must not be any modification made to the scale.
1.4 Warranty
Warranty is invalid for the following:
• non- observation of the guidelines of this user manual,
• use of the scale other than specified in this manual,
• alteration to or opening of the device,
• mechanical damage and damage caused by media, water, wear and tear,
• inappropriate assembling or defects of electric installation,
• overloading of the measuring instrument.
1.5 Metrological parameters monitoring
Metrological characteristics of the scale require periodical inspection to be carried
out by its user. Inspection frequency is dependent on ambient conditions in which
the scale is used, types of performed processes and accepted quality management
system in organization.
1.6 User manual significance
Please read the user manual carefully before assembling and start-up, even if you
are experienced with this type of weighing instruments.
1.7 Staff training
This scale should only be operated and maintained by personnel who is trained and
experienced in using this type of scales.

2. TRANSPORT AND STORAGE
2.1 Delivery check
Please check the packaging immediately upon delivery, while unpacking the device
make sure that there are no visible signs of external damage.
2.2 Packaging
Please retain all parts of the original packaging should the scale be transported in
the future. Only the original packaging shall be used for shipping the scale. Before
packing, disconnect all attached cables and remove any loose/movable parts
(weighing pan, anti-draft shield, etc.). Please place scale and its components in the
original packaging, thus protecting them against damage during transport.

3. UNPACKING, INSTALLING AND TESTING
3.1 Place of use and installation
• The scale should be stored and used in locations free of vibrations and
shakes, and free of air movement and dust.
• Ambient air temperature should not exceed the range of: +10 °C ÷ +40 °C.
• Ambient relative humidity should not exceed 80%.
• During operation, ambient temperature in the weighing room should not
change more than 3 °C within one hour.
• The device should be located on a stable wall console desk or a stable
working table, not affected by vibrations, distant from heat sources.
• Since part of the scale is a strong magnet it is necessary to take special
precaution when weighing magnetic objects. Should such loads be
weighed, use under-pan weighing option, with this the weighed load is
removed from an area influenced by the magnet. The hook for under-pan
weighing is installed in scale base.
• In order to avoid the influence of static electricity on the measurement
process, ground the scale housing. The grounding bolt is located at the
back of the scale housing.
3.2 Unpacking
Cut the sealing tape. Take the scale out of the packaging. Open the accessories
box and take all necessary components. Upon placing the scale in the desired
location, assembly its weighing pan and other parts following an instruction.
Be as gentle as possible so as not to damage the scale mechanism by accident.

HRP 150 platform installation
1. Take the scale out of its packaging, make sure that you touch „OUTER
FRAME” only.
2. Connect the terminal and the weighing module.

- 14 -
3. Install mandrels for the weighing pan.
4. Disassembly transport lock by undoing screws and removing fixing washers.

- 15 -
5. Install the weighing pan.
3.3 Levelling
Before plugging the device to the mains, level it by turning its
feet. Keep turning the feet until an air bubble takes central
position of the level indicator ring. Make sure that your device is
placed firmly on all its feet.
3.4 Maintenance and cleaning
1. Be careful while cleaning the device so as not to cause any damages to
the mechanism.
2. Use a dry flannel cloth in order to clean the device components (mild
cleanser may be used if it does not contain any abrasive substances).
3.5 Connecting to the mains
The device can be connected to the mains only with a power adapter that comes
standard with it. Nominal power supply of the power adapter (specified on the data
plate of the power adapter) must be compatible with the power from the mains.
Plug the scale to the mains – the power supply socket is located at the back of the
housing.

First, display unit test is carried out (all the elements and pictograms are backlit for
a short time), next, the name and the program number appear consequently, the
indication is ZERO (with scale-related reading unit). During scale start-up, internal
adjustment mechanism is tested (single location and elevation of the internal mass
adjustment).
If the indication is different from zero, press button.
3.6 Connecting peripherals
It is inevitable to disconnect the scale from the mains before coupling it to any
peripheral devices (printer, PC computer, additional display, computer keypad,
etc.). Follow this rule also when replacing any coupled peripheral device with a new
one.
Connect only the equipment recommended by the manufacturer.
When the devices are coupled, plug the scale to the mains.

6. START-UP
When plugged to the mains, the scale displays program name and number, next it
proceeds to the weighing mode.
6.1 Temperature stabilization period
Prior to measurement it is necessary to wait until the scale stabilizes thermally,
For scales stored in much lower temperatures before plugging to the mains (e.g.
during winter period), thermal stabilisation period shall take 4 – 8 hours. During the
thermal stabilization, the indications on the display panel can change. For correct
operation it is recommended that ambient temperature changes at place of use
were insignificant (slow to change).
