2. GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
Weight meter !"#$ is designed for cooperation with load cells (strain gages) in
application not required to be approved. Device is equipped with push-buttons allow easy
setting of tare and zero, and also switching between nett and gross indications. Measured
weight is displayed on 6-digit readable LED display. The device can be equipped with two
relay outputs or two OC-type outputs and one of following: active current output, passive
isolated current output, active voltage output, which allow to use as controller for simple
systems with batching function. Build in analogue output and R -485 interface enable remote
controlling of the device by a host system if required. The device software allows to use two
calibration methods: data sheet calibration, or dead weight calibration. All critical states of the
device are signalised by proper error messages.

4. DEVICE INSTALLATION
The unit has been designed and manufactured in a way assuring a high level of user
safety and resistance to interference occurring in a typical industrial environment. In order to
take full advantage of these characteristics installation of the unit must be conducted correctly
and according to the local regulations.
- Read the basic safety requirements on page & prior to starting the installation.
- Ensure that the power supply network voltage corresponds to the nominal
voltage stated on the unit’s identification label.
- The load must correspond to the requirements listed in the technical data.
- All installation works must be conducted with a disconnected power supply.
- Protecting the power supply clamps against unauthorized persons must be
taken into consideration.

4.1. UNPACKING
After removing the unit from the protective packaging, check for transportation damage. Any
transportation damage must be immediately reported to the carrier. Also, write down the unit
serial number on the housing and report the damage to the manufacturer.
Attached with the unit please find:
- user’s manual,
- warranty,
- assembly brackets - 2 pieces.
4.2. ASSEMBLY
- The unit is designed for mounting inside housings (control panel, switchboard)
insuring appropriate protection against surges and interference. Metal housings
must be connected to ground in a way that complies with the governing
regulations.
- Disconnect the power supply prior to starting assembly.
- Check the connections are wired correctly prior to switching the unit on.
In order to install the unit, a 90.5 x 43 mm mounting hole (/$0,$1) must be
prepared. The thickness of the material of which the panel is made must not
exceed 5mm. When preparing the mounting hole take the grooves for catches
located on both sides of the housing into consideration (/$0,$1). Place the
unit in the mounting hole inserting it from the front side of the panel, and then fix it
using the brackets (/$&). The minimum distances between the centre points
of multiple units - due to the thermal and mechanical conditions of operation - are
115 mm x 67mm (/$%).

4.3. CONNECTION METHOD
Caution
- Installation should be conducted by qualified personnel . During installation all
available safety requirements should be considered. The fitter is responsible for
executing the installation according to this manual, local safety and EMC
regulations.
- The unit is not equipped with an internal fuse or power supply circuit breaker.
Because of this an external time-delay cut-out fuse with minimal possible nominal
current value must be used (recommended bipolar, max. 2A) and a power supply
circuit-breaker located near the unit. In the case of using a monopolar fuse it must
be mounted on the phase cable (L).
- The power supply network cable diameter must be selected in such a way that in
the case of a short circuit of the cable from the side of the unit the cable shall be
protected against destruction with an electrical installation fuse.
- Wiring must meet appropriate standards and local regulations and laws.
- In order to secure against accidental short circuit the connection cables must be
terminated with appropriate insulated cable tips.
- Tighten the clamping screws. The recommended tightening torque is 0.5 Nm.
Loose screws can cause fire or defective operation. Over tightening can lead to
damaging the connections inside the units and breaking the thread.
- In the case of the unit being fitted with separable clamps they should be inserted
into appropriate connectors in the unit, even if they are not used for any
connections.

- If the unit is equipped with housing, covers and sealing packing, protecting
against water intrusion, pay special attention to their correct tightening or clamping.
In the case of any doubt consider using additional preventive measures (covers,
roofing, seals, etc.). Carelessly executed assembly can increase the risk of electric
shock.
- After the installation is completed do not touch the unit’s connections when it is
switched on, because it carries the risk of electrical shock.

–Avoid common (parallel) leading of signal cables and transmission cables together with
power supply cables and cables controlling induction loads (e.g. contactors). uch cables
should cross at a right angle.
–Contactor coils and induction loads should be equipped with anti-interference protection
systems, e.g. RC-type.

User manual - WEIGHT METER SWI-94
–Use of screened signal cables is recommended. ignal cable screens should be
connected to the earthing only at one of the ends of the screened cable.
–In the case of magnetically induced interference the use of twisted couples of signal
cables (so-called “spirals”) is recommended. The spiral (best if shielded) must be used
with R -485 serial transmission connections.
–In the case of measurement or control signals are longer than 30m or go outside of the
building then additional safety circuits are required.
–In the case of interference from the power supply side the use of appropriate anti-
interference filters is recommended. Bear in mind that the connection between the filter
and the unit should be as short as possible and the metal housing of the filter must be
connected to the earthing with largest possible surface. The cables connected to the filter
output must not run in parallel with cables with interference (e.g. circuits controlling relays
or contactors).
Connections of power supply voltage and measurement signals are executed using the
screw connections on the back of the unit’s housing.

Notes related to connection of strain bridges:
- Installation should be made according to local safety and electromagnetic
compatibility regulations. While installation pay special attention to:
- use of shielded wires,
- shield of wires should be connected with metal housing using a conductive
glands or metal clamp to ensure proper electrical contact.
- shielded wires should be mounted as close metal case of the device (e.g.
connection box) as possible, and as far from disturbing wires (e.g. powering
motors) as possible.

4.4. MAINTENANCE
The unit does not have any internal replaceable or adjustable components available to
the user. Pay attention to the ambient temperature in the room where the unit is operating.
Excessively high temperatures cause faster ageing of the internal components and shorten
the fault-free time of unit operation.
In cases where the unit gets dirty do not clean with solvents. For cleaning use warm water
with small amount of detergent or in the case of more significant contamination ethyl or
isopropyl alcohol.
Using any other agents can cause permanent damage to the housing.
Product marked with this symbol should not be placed in municipal waste. Please
check local regulations for disposal and electronic products.
