Model TE100
Electronic Small Bagging Scale
3.5 Dry Cycle
Once all electrical/pneumatic connections have been made, the operator should dry cycle the machine to
test the control components. If all components operate properly, the machine is ready to calibrate.
Note: The cylinders may be cycled manually by pressing the test buttons on the solenoid valves.
1. Make sure the power connection has been connected to the power source.
2. Turn the power switch on the control panel of the TE100 to the ON position.
3. Make sure that the air pressure on the FRL is set to specification.
4. If equipped with a bag position switch, place a bag, or piece of a bag, over the bag position
switch.
5. Trip the bale on the START switch. This should result in the following actions:
•
The bag clamp cylinders will extend and pushing the bag clamp arms out against the bag
clamp pads.
•
The shut off gate cylinder will extend to open the shut off gate and simulate the start of the
fill cycle.
6. Press the STOP button to simulate the package reaching target weight. This should result in the
following actions:
•
The shut off gate cylinder will retract to close the shut off gate.
•
The bag clamp cylinders will retract, pulling the bag clamp arms inward, thus releasing the
bag.
7. Test the dribble gate function by pressing the test buttons on MAC valve that controls it.
3.6 Calibration
The TE100 is calibrated before it is shipped from the factory. However, the TE100 should always be
inspected and calibrated again before being put into service.
The TE100 should be calibrated on a weekly basis during the first month of operation. After the first
month of operation the TE100 should be calibrated once a month. The TE100 will also require
calibration anytime the full-scale weight range is changed.
When calibrating the TE100, always use a certified test weight.
Prior to starting the calibration process, the operator should familiarize themselves with the controls on
the outside and inside of the control panel.
The TE100 can be calibrated to weigh packages in pounds or kilograms. The procedures in this chapter
are written for weighing in pounds. To set up a machine for metric weighments, simply substitute a
metric certified test weight in place of the standard test weight referenced in the calibration procedures.
