Operating Instructions Combics Indicators 11
Shock Resistance
The weighing platform has a robust design; however, falling weighing samples, side
impacts and shocks should be avoided. The weighing platform can withstand loads
specifi ed in the DIN standard IEC68 Part 2-27.
Notes on Planning Superstructures
3
Superstructures must be completely attached before the weighing platform is
connected to the power.
The weighing platform is designed for system integration. Scale drawings are the
basis for the selection of the required superstructures. The fi xing of model CAH*IG*
weighing platforms should be carried out using the YAS04IS fastening kit.
Moving or rotating parts on the weighing pan must be designed so that the
weighing results are not infl uenced. Rotating parts should be counterbalanced,
for example.
The weighing pan must be free on all sides so that there is no connection between
the weighing platform and fi xed parts due to falling parts or dirt. Cables and hoses
between the weighing platform and other devices may not exert any forces on the
weighing platform. These cables may not touch the weighing pan.
When setting up systems in hazardous areas (Zone 2 or 22), any relevant
specifi cations should be observed, e. g.: EN60079-14.
The design should ensure that moving parts do not cause electrostatic discharges
(e. g. roller conveyors).
Preload Range (Zero Set Range)
The weight of the superstructures that are attached to the weighing platform is
designated as a “preload.” The preload is electronically compensated for in the
weighing platform so that the full weighing range remains available and thus
zeroing and/or calibration/adjustment (with external weights) is possible.
Greater preloads reduce the weighing capacity. You may not fall below the following
weighing range values:
– For CAH*E-16ED... and CAH*E-32ED... a min. 20 kg weighing range must be
maintained
– For CAH*E-64ED... and CAH*G-64FE... a min. 35 kg weighing range must be
maintained
– For CAH*G-150IG-H and CAH*G-300IG-H a min. 60 kg weighing range must be
maintained
The preload must always be set before verifi cation.
Acclimatizing the Device
Condensation can form on the surfaces of a cold device when it is brought into a
substantially warmer area.
t Allow the device to acclimatize for about 2 hours at room temperature, leaving
it unplugged from AC power.

Entering Geographical Data for Use in Legal Metrology
Purpose Entering geographical data allows the external adjustment of weighing equipment
at a place (e. g. at the manufacturer or vendor's place of business) that is not the
same as the place of installation. If the weighing equipment is adjusted at the place
of installation, it is not necessary to enter geographical data.
The sensitivity of weighing equipment changes depending on the place of
installation as it is dependent on the on-site gravitational force – or, more precisely,
on gravitational acceleration. Saving geographical data makes it possible to change
the place of installation of the weighing equipment after external adjustment has
been carried out.
The adjustment of weighing equipment is valid at the place of installation and
within a specifi c tolerance zone. At 3000 e this zone extends ±100 km from the set
geographical latitude and ±200 m from the set elevation above sea level.
Installation Location in Germany An exception to this is the setting for “Germany (Zone D):” If during external
adjustment of weighing equipment within Germany the geographical data
– Geographical latitude: 51.00 degrees
– 513 m elevation above sea level
are entered, the weighing equipment can be used throughout Germany.
Gravitational acceleration for “Germany (Zone D)” is 9.810 m/s
2
. On delivery the
geographical data for “Germany (Zone D)” are entered in the output device.
It is recommended to use the geographical data settings for “Germany (Zone D)”
when adjusting and delivering the weighing equipment within Germany. Entering
exact geographical data will lead to a higher level of accuracy but will also restrict
the tolerance zone.
Setup Information – It is only possible to enter geographical data when the menu access switch is
open.
– When the Service mode is activated, you can enter geographical data in the
Setup menu for the fi rst weighing platform under WP-1 and COM1 / WP-2,
UNICOM / WP-2 or COM-WP for the second weighing platform. The settings are
made in the corresponding Setup menu under menu item 1.20.
– You can enter either the “geographical latitude in degrees” (LATITUD menu
item 1.20.1) and “elevation in m above sea level” (ALTITUD menu item 1.20.2),
or the value for gravitational acceleration (GRAVITYmenu item 1.20.3).
Gravitational acceleration takes precedence over the geographical latitude and
elevation of the location: If it has been entered, input fi elds for latitude and
elevation show the values 99999.99 and 9999999 respectively. If only elevation
and latitude have been entered, 0000000 is displayed for gravitational
acceleration.

If you return to the highest level of the Setup menu without saving the
configuration parameter beforehand (save menu item 1.20.4) any settings that
have been made will be deleted.
