SITE PREPARATION REQUIREMENTS
The Detecto APS Enterprise Scale is a precision weight-measuring instrument. As with any precision instrument, they require an acceptable environment to operate at peak performance and reliability. This section is provided to assist you in obtaining such an environment.
Site Requirements
In order to keep cooling requirements to a minimum, the indicator should be placed out of direct sunlight and to provide adequate air circulation, keep the area around the indicator clear.

natural_image

NO!
natural_image
Simple line drawing of a device emitting a lightning bolt (no text or symbols)Environmental Conditions
The APS Enterprise scale has been designed to operate under the following environmental conditions:
- Indoor use only.
- Ambient temperature range of 14 to 104^ (-10 to +40 °C
- Main supply voltage fluctuations not to exceed ± 10% of the nominal voltage.
- Transient overvoltage's according to Installation Categories II (Overvoltage Categories per IEC 1010). Temporary voltage spikes on the AC input line that may be as high as 1500V for 115V models and 2500V for 230V models are allowed.
- Used in an environment of Pollution degrees 2 (i.e., where normally only non-conductive atmospheres are present). Occasionally, however, a temporary conductivity caused by condensation must be expected, in accordance with IEC 664.
SITE PREPARATION REQUIREMENTS, CONT.
Electrical Power
The APS Enterprise scale is powered by a 100 to 240 VAC 50/60Hz 12 VDC 1A wall plug-in UL/CSA listed AC power adapter. Note that a special order is not required for operation at 230/240 VAC.
- The socket-outlet supplying power to the scale should be on a separate circuit from the distribution panel and dedicated to the exclusive use of the scale.
- The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible. Note that the wall plug-in AC power adapter serves as the power disconnect.
- The wiring should conform to national and local electrical codes and ordinances and should be approved by the local inspector to assure compliance.
- On installations requiring 230 VAC power, it is the responsibility of the customer to have a qualified electrician install the proper power adapter plug that conforms to national electrical codes and local codes and ordinances.
Electrical Noise Interference
To prevent electrical noise interference, make certain all other wall outlets for use with air conditioning and heating equipment, lighting or other equipment with heavily inductive loads, such as welders, motors and solenoids are on circuits separate from the scale. Many of these disturbances originate within the building itself and can seriously affect the operation of the scale. These sources of disturbances must be identified and steps must be taken to prevent possible adverse effects on the scale. Examples of available alternatives include isolation transformers, power regulators, uninterruptible power supplies, or simple line filters.
Transient Suppression
The following recommendations will help to reduce transients:
• Always use shielded cables to connect signal wires to the weight scale.
- Do not run signal cables from the scale alongside or parallel to wiring carrying AC power. If unavoidable, position the signal cables a minimum of 24" away from all AC wiring.
- Always use arc suppressors across all AC power relay contacts (see recommendations at http://www.paktron.com/pdf/Quencharch_QRL.pdf).
RFI Immunity
The operation of sensitive electronic equipment can be adversely affected by RF (Radio Frequency) radio transmissions. Digital weight scales are one such type of equipment. Radio transmissions come from things like hand-held radio transmitters and cell phones. One symptom of RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) in a digital weight scale is weight indication instability during a radio transmission.
The APS Enterprise scale was designed with special grounding and RFI shielding to achieve a high degree of immunity to common RFI. To maximize the scale's immunity to radio transmissions, follow these guidelines:
- ALWAYS use shielded cable for all I/O (Input/Output) connections to the scale.
- NEVER operate any radio transmitter within 2 meters (\~6ft.) of the scale.
- NEVER connect un-terminated cables to the scale.
- KEEP the intended external I/O devices connected to I/O cables entering the scale.
- ALWAYS connect the shield of the shielded I/O cable at the scale end only. Leave the shield unconnected at the I/O device.

CARE AND CLEANING

NOTE: The APS Enterprise scale contains no user-serviceable parts and maintenance should be limited to an occasional cleaning as required.
- Do not submerge the scale in water, pour or spray water directly on it to clean. The scale is not waterproof and covering it with water will damage it and void the warranty.
• Always remove power before cleaning. - Do not use wire brushes, abrasives, or cleaning tools such as steel pads and scrapers, which will scratch the surface. Instead, use soft cloths or plastic scouring pads for cleaning.
- When possible use treated water. Hard water can leave behind deposits. Soft water is much gentler on the stainless steel and painted surfaces.
- Avoid the use of acetone, thinner or other volatile solvents and abrasive type cleaners for cleaning. If required, a mild solvent such as mineral spirits can be used to remove oil, grease, tars, wax, and similar substances. Use a cloth dampened with mineral spirits and only apply to areas that are contaminated. Follow up the use of this mild solvent with detergent cleaning and rinsing.
SECURITY SEAL INSTALLATION
If your metrology laws require the use of physical sealing, a lead and wire security seal can be installed on the APS Enterprise scale to prevent the Calibration Switch Access screw located on the bottom of the scale base from being removed to gain access to the calibration switch thereby preventing unauthorized access to the calibration adjustments.
NOTE: In order to install the lead and wire security seal, two screws must be replaced with two drilled screws. They are available from the Cardinal/Detecto Parts Department. The part numbers are:
6021-0605 (SCW FILLISTER. MACHINE-SCW 06-32X.375)
6024-0126 (WASHER FLAT)
6021-1108 (SCW FILLISTER. MACHINE-SCW 10-32X.375)
To install a lead and wire security seal, follow the steps provided below:
- Remove the Calibration Switch Access screw and replace it with the drilled 10-32 screw. Make certain it is securely tighten before proceeding.
- Remove the PCB Cover screw as shown and replace it with the drilled 6-32 screw and flat washer. Make certain it is securely tighten before proceeding.
- Thread the sealing wire through the hole in the drilled screws.
- Pull the wire tight and install the lead seal.
- The screws cannot be removed without damaging the seal.
