•Indicator not tobe subject toshock, excessivevibration or extremes oftemperature
(beforeor after installation).
•Inputsareprotected against electricalinterference, but excessivelevelsofelectro-
magneticradiation and RFI mayaffect the accuracyand stability.
•The instrument shouldbe installed awayfrom anysources ofexcessiveelectricalnoise.
•The load cell cableisparticularlysensitivetoelectricalnoise and shouldbe located well
awayfrom anypower or switchingcircuits.
•For full EMCor for RFI immunity, termination ofcableshields and correct earthingofthe
instrument isessential.
•Indicator and load cell cablearesensitivetoexcessiveelectricalnoise. Install well away
from anypower or switchingcircuits.
3.3.Electrical Safety
•For your protection all mains electricalhardwaremust be rated for environmental
conditions ofuse.
•Pluggableequipment must be installed near an easilyaccessiblepower socket outlet.
•Toavoidthe possibilityofelectricshockor damagetothe instrument, alwaysswitch off
or isolatethe instrument from the power supplybeforemaintenance iscarried out.
3.4.Cleaning
•Tomaintainthe instrument, never use harsh abrasivecleanersor solvents. Wipe the

3.6.CableConnections
All cableconnections aremade tothe rear ofthe instrument usingscrewless terminals.
Wires must be stripped ofinsulation byat least 10mm. Toinstall, depress the orangelever
beside the terminalrequired and push wireintothe hole. Release the lever and pull gentlyon
the wiretoensureit issecurelytrapped inthe terminal. It isnot necessarytotinthe ends of
the wirewithsolder or toadd crimpferrules tothe wires, however, these techniques arealso
compatiblewiththe terminalsand mayultimatelymakefor aneater job.
Figure2: CableConnections
3.7.DC Power(DC PWR+ , DC PWR–)
The DC supplyneed not be regulated, provided that it isfree ofexcessiveelectricalnoise and
sudden transients. The instrument can be operated from ahighqualityplug-packas longas
thereissufficient capacitytodrivebothit and the load cells.
Ifan optionalbatterypackisfitted, then the supplied chargingsystem must be used.
3.8.LoadCell Connection
3.8.1.LoadCell Signalsand ScaleBuild
Verylowoutput scalebases maybe used but mayresult insomeinstabilityinthe weight
readingswhen used at higher resolutions. Generallyspeaking, the higher the load cell output,
or the lower the number ofdivisions, the greater the displaystabilityand accuracy.
The instrument can displaythe millivolt-per-volt readingthat can be used tocheckscalebase
signaloutput levels. For moreinformation, refer toTEST(SpecialTest Functions) page37.
The instrument maybe connected for either 4-wireor 6–wireoperation. Tocorrespond withthe
actualcablinginstallation the instrument must be configured insetup tothe correct setting. For

Figure14 illustrates an exampleofpossibleconnections. Also shownarethe connecting
cables restrained usingcableties fastened around the cablestrainreliefanchors.
Figure14: CableShieldConnection
3.11.1.CableShieldConnection and Earthing
•Careshouldbe taken when connectingshields tomaximise EMCor RFI immunityand
minimise earthloops and cross-talk(interference) between instruments.
•For full EMCor for RFI immunity, termination ofthe cableshields at the earthlugisvery
important. The earthlugofthe instrument must be separatelyconnected toground
potentialviaareliablelink.
•The instrument shouldonlybe connected toearthviaasinglereliablelinktoavoidearth
loops.
•Whereeach instrument isseparatelyearthed, interconnectingcableshields shouldbe
connected at one end only. Thisalso applies tocommunications cableshields inRing
Networks, refer toShort RingNetworkand LongRingNetworkconnections under ‘RS-
232 Serial’ pages 12 and 13.
•Caution: Someload cellsconnect the cableshielddirectlytothe load cell (and therefore
the scalebase). Connection ofthe load cell cableshieldinthissituation maybe site
specific.
3.12.RegulatorySealing Requirements
Tocomplywithregulatorysealingrequirementsfor each instrument, (ie. toensureinstrumentsare
not accidentallyor deliberatelytampered with), it isimportant that proper sealingprocedures be
adhered to. Refer toAppendix- Trade Sealingpage54 for moreinformation.
