Connecting the Weighing Platform
Please note that the person or Company who connects any non-Sartorius-
approved indicating and control devices (e.g., a Computer) or power
supplies to the weighing platform shall assume all risks and responsibilities
associated with this equipment.
Plug the connecting cable into the connector of a Sartorius
isi industrial
terminal. Afterwards, hand-tighten the locking ring.
The connecting cable is 3 meters long (approx. 10 feet). To order an
extension cable or to customize a cable to your requirements, refer to the
list of accessories or contact Sartorius.
Cable Lengths:
Since you can choose to power the weighing platform via the interface port
of the Sartorius
isi industrial terminal or a separate power supply unit, there
are a few restrictions that apply to the cable lengths between these
components.
lf you use a cable that is longer than 12 meters (~ 40 feet) between the
weighing platform and the Sartorius
isi industrial terminal, each of these
components must be energized by a separate AC adapter.
Separate Power Connection (Optional) for the Weighing Platform Have
your local Sartorius dealer or service technician connect the weighing
platform separately to line current (mains supply). This separate power
connection is required when you use cables that are longer than 12 meters
or if you interface the weighing platform directly with a Computer.
The diagrams on the next page show the options for powering weighing
platforms and industrial terminals:
