PRECAUTIONS
Prior to installation, operation or maintenance activities, carefully read this user
manual. Follow the instructions strictly.
Prior to the first use, carefully read this user manual. Use the device only
as intended.
Protect the device against considerable temperature variation, solar and
UV radiation, substances causing chemical reactions.
The device must not be operated in hazardous areas endangered with
explosion of gases, and in dusty environments.
In the case of damage, immediately unplug the device from the mains.
The device to be decommissioned must be decommissioned in
accordance with valid legal regulations.
If the device is to be operated in conditions that are difficult due
to electrostatics (e.g. printing house, packing centre, etc.), you must
connect it to the earth wire. To enable this, the device features functional
earthing terminal, marked with symbol.

1. INTENDED USE
The MW-01-A mass converter is designed to be a component of an industrial
load cell scale. Depending on the needs, communication with the mass
converter can be carried out via the following communication interfaces:
RS232, RS485, Ethernet, Profibus, Profinet, Ethernet IP. The MW-01-A mass
converter is compatible with indicators and PC.
Operation of the MW-01-A mass converter via PC is carried out using
„MwManager” software.
2. WARRANTY CONDITIONS
A. RADWAG is obliged to repair or exchange all elements that appear to be
faulty by production or by construction.
B. Defining defects of unclear origin and means of their elimination can only
be realized with the assistance of the manufacturer and the user
representatives.
C. RADWAG does not bear any responsibility for damage or losses
resulting from unauthorized or inadequate performing of production
or service processes.
D. The warranty does not cover:
mechanical damage caused by product exploitation other than
intended, damage of thermal and chemical origin, damage caused by
lightning, overvoltage in the power network or other random event,
inappropriate cleaning habits.
E. Loss of warranty takes place if:
a repair is carried out outside RADWAG authorized service point,
service claims intrusion into mechanical or electronic construction by
unauthorized people,
the device does not bear security seal stickers.
F. Warranty conditions outline the warranty period for rechargeable
batteries attached to the device for 12 months.
G. For detailed warranty conditions read the service card.
H. Contact with the central authorized service: [phone].
3. MAINTENANCE
In order to clean the mass converter risk-free, it is necessary to disconnect
the device from the mains.
Avoid using cleansers containing any corrosive chemicals, e.g. bleach (with
chlorine). Do not use cleansers containing abrasive substances. Always
remove the dirt using a microfiber cloth, do it to avoid damage to the protective
coating. In the case of daily maintenance:

6
1. Remove the dirt using cloth dipped in warm water.
2. For best results, add a little bit of dishwashing detergent.
4. SERVICE AND REPAIR
In the case of any sign of damage, it is necessary
to disconnect the device from the mains immediately.
The damaged component must be replaced or repaired
by RADWAG service directly.
In the case of any problems with correct operation of the device, contact
the closest manufacturer's service point.
In the case of defects, deliver the faulty product to the manufacturer's service
point. If the product cannot be delivered to the manufacturer's service point, call
the service and report the defect. Repair scope and method will be set up.
The user is NOT ALLOWED to carry out any kind of repair
of the device himself/herself. Any attempt of module
modification, repair etc. by unauthorized persons, will result
with loss of validity of manufacturer-issued certificates,
declarations and warranty.
5. RECYCLING
The MW-01-A mass converters must be recycled, they are not to be treated as
a regular household waste. Devices to be decommissioned must be
decommissioned in accordance with valid legal regulations.
6. MECHANICAL DESIGN
The mass converter is equipped with metal housing. Depending on the
MW-01-A model, the communication with external devices is carried out via
the following communication interfaces: RS232, RS485, Ethernet, Profibus,
Profinet, Ethernet IP. The module can be equipped with 3 digital inputs,
3 analog inputs and outputs such as current loop or voltage output. It is
powered with 12÷24VDC voltage.
