Section 1: Introduction
Section 2: Description
The 6001 Series analog platforms are lightweight scale platforms
that feature matched loadcells.
The 12” x 12”, and the 14” x 14” platforms are constructed of a lightweight,
durable composite material.
The 18” x 18” platforms have a powder-coated steel platform cover for
added strength and durability.
The 24” x 24” size is constructed entirely of steel, that is also powder
coated.
The 6001 Series Platforms utilize 'matched' load cells making
cornering adjustment circuitry unnecessary. Their capacities range from 6
lbs to 500 lbs, in different four sizes:
Platform Size
Capacity Division Size
12” x 12" 6 lb 0.002 lb
12” x 12" 12 lb 0.005 lb
12” x 12" 25 lb 0.01 lb
14” x 14” 60 lb 0.02 lb
14” x 14” 150 lb 0.05 lb
18” x 18” 100 lb 0.05 lb
18” x 18” 300 lb 0.1 lb
24” x 24” 200 lb 0.1 lb
24” x 24” 300 lb 0.1 lb
24” x 24” 500 lb 0.2 lb
The 6001 Series Analog platform will easily interface to most any analog
indicator. All models are approved for commercial use by NTEP COC # 99197A2.

Section 3: Installation
The platforms are shipped ready to interface to an analog indicator. All
models use the same wiring color code.
1. Place the platform where it will be used
2. Level the platform using the feet
3. Connect the Interface cable to the indicator. The loadcell interface
cable is identified as follows:
Platform T
ermination Wire Color Function
TB1-2 Black (-) Excitation
TB1-1 Green (+) Excitation
TB1-3 Yellow Outer Shield-Grd
N/A Bare
Inner Shield-Chassis Grnd
TB1-4 White (+) Signal
TB1-5 Red (-) Signal

TOOLS
REQUIRED:
• #1 Phillips
screwdriver
• 7/64” Allen
wrench
Section 4: Parts Replacement
A. Load Cell Replacement:
1. Remove power to the indicator.
2. Set the platform up-side-down, unscrew and remove all four feet.
3. Use a 7/64” allen wrench to remove the screws in the foot holes.
4. Place the platform upright without the cover.
5. Unplug the suspect load cell from the load cell junction assy.
6. Remove the screws holding the load cell and spacer in place.
7. Remove the load cell and cable.
NOTE the cell and cable placement!
8. Install the new load cell and the spacer(s).
9. Tighten the load cell mounting screws to 8 ( ± 2 ) INCH/LBS of
torque ONLY.
10. Route the load cell cable exactly as the original's cable & plug
connector in.
11. Place the base up-side-down into the platform cover and align
the holes.
12. Insert the allen head screws and tighten to 8 (± 2 ) INCH/LBS of
torque ONLY.
13. Calibrate the indicator.
