SECTION 1.0 DESCRIPTION
EAGLE MICROSYSTEMS WT3600 Weigh Trunnion was designed specifically for weighing standard t on
containers for Chlorine and Sodium Dioxide. Rollers made of UHMW plastic on stainless steel axles allow
easy ton rotation and require no greasing or other preventive maintenance. Two sealed stainless steel,
electronic load cells provide an accurate weight reading. Each WT3600 weighs less than 50 pounds so it
is shipped via parcel service and can be handled and installed by one person. Several WT3600’s can be
daisy chained to create a multiple container scale. This modularity allows easy reconfiguration to
accommodate growth or downsizing without waste of resources.
SECTION 2.0 PREPARATION FOR USE
2.1 RECEIVING INSPECTION
1. Upon receiving the WT3600, carefully inspect the condition of the shipping container including
the banding and any protective covering used for shipping. Report any damage to the shipper and to
Eagle Microsystems.
2. Remove the WT3600 from the box and inspect for damage. Report any damage to the shipper
and to Eagle Microsystems.
2.2 SHIPMENT
Should re-shipment of your WT3600 become necessary.
1. Use a strong, well-built shipping container. The shipping container must be larger than the outer
dimensions of the WT3600 to protect it in shipping.
2. Make sure the hook-up cable is protected and secured in crate.
3. Use strong banding to secure WT3600 in shipment.
2.3 SITE SELECTION
1. Line power devices causing large inductive currents should not run off the same circuit as
the weigh system. Fluctuations in line voltage caused by such devices may result in display instability.
2. The hook-up cable to the read-out should not run close to other unshielded cables. Display
instability may result.
3. For best accuracy, a flat, level, and rigid surface is recommended to support the WT3600.
4. The area should be accessible for periodic cleaning.
