● For sensors, external inputs/outputs, RS-232C and options, use shielded cables.

● The temporary overvoltage applied to the power should not exceed 1500V.

● For turning on/off the power, be sure to keep intervals of 5 seconds or more.

● After power-on, make sure to warm up the F600AT for at least 30 minutes or more before use.

● If the F600AT is not used by the specified method, its protective performance may be

impaired.

● Maintenance

- When performing maintenance, disconnect the power.

- Do not wipe with a wet rag, or with benzine, thinner, alcohol, etc. Doing so may cause discoloration or deformation of the F600AT. In the case of heavy contamination, wipe off the contamination with a cloth after dipping it into a diluted neutral detergent and wringing it well, and then wipe with a soft, dry cloth.

● When the F600AT is shipped, spacers made of corrugated cardboard are used as

cushioning materials. Though it is factory-designed so that shocks can sufficiently be absorbed, breakage may result if shocks are applied when the spacers are reused for transportation. If you send the

F600AT to us for repair, etc., take adequate measures against shocks by using polyurethane materials, etc., separately.

● If you dispose of the product, handle it as industrial waste.

● Remove the lithium batteries used in the F600AT and make sure to dispose them according

‘n’ (number) loadcells connected in

parallel are considered one unit whose

capacity is ‘n’ x rated capacity of

loadcells (loadcells must have the same

capacity, bridge resistance, and mV/V).

The averaging resistor (R) must be in

same relative ratios with a low

temperature coefficient.

Averaging resistors are not needed if

loadcells were designed for parallel

connection.

Notice

When connecting several loadcells in parallel, loadcell capacity should be higher than

expected load to compensate for mechanical shock or eccentric loading.

Rated Output capacity

In case of the load

F600AT

Loadcell

Rated output value (mV/V) + Indicated value

A data sheet is attached to a loadcell at the time of purchase.

The data sheet provides data including:

Capacity Load (in kg, t, etc.)

Rated Output voltage (in mV/V)

non-linearity, hysteresis,input resistance,output resistance and zero balance.

Enter the capacity and the rated output value required for equivalent input

calibration into the F600AT.

4. CALIBRATION

Calibration is performed for matching the F600AT to a loadcell. The following two types of calibration

are available for the F600AT.

◇ Actual load calibration

Apply an actual load to the loadcell and enter the actual load value by the keys for calibration.

Calibration is accurately performed with reductions in errors.

◇ Equivalent input calibration

Calibration is performed without an actual load by entering the rated output value (mV/V) and the

capacity (to be indicated) of the strain-gage sensor by the keys. Calibration is easily performed when

no actual load is available.

For example, the gain is automatically determined by entering:

as indicated for a load.
