2.0 Installation

This section provides an overview of the BenchMark HE-X installation procedure and grounding information.

2.1 Unpacking

Immediately after unpacking, visually inspect the scale to ensure that the unit is undamaged. The shipping carton should

contain the bench scale and this manual. If the bench scale was damaged in shipment, notify Rice Lake Weighing Systems and

the shipper immediately.

2.2 Leveling the Scale

1. Place the scale in the desired location that is reasonably level and free of unnecessary vibrations and air currents.

2. Lift off the scale top cover and locate the level bubble.

3. Adjust the four corner feet on the scale base until the level bubble and all feet contact the support surface so the scale

does not rock.

4. Lock the jam nuts on the feet when the final level is correct.

2.3 Connecting the Load Cell Cable

All models come with 10' color-coded load cell cable.

Do not cut this cable. Cutting this cable voids the warranty.

See the indicator manual to determine the proper load cell cable input connector. Use the following color codes to

wire the load cell cable to the indicator.

Connect Sense and Excitation wires together if using 4-wire system without sense leads.

Note

Installation

2.4 Grounding the Scale Base

BenchMark HE-X can build up a static electricity charge during weighing operations. If powerful enough, the charge can travel

through the load cell cable to the indicator. The unit should be adequately grounded so static charges and transient electrical

surges can drain directly to the ground. It is recommended to connect the scale base to an AC ground circuit using at least

#12 ga. wire. The BenchMark HE-X has a grounding hole for a grounding screw located on the bottom of the lower frame.

2.5 Calibration

It is recommended that the scale be exercised by loading it to near capacity two or three times before calibration to ensure

everything is seated. See the specific indicator manual for the proper calibration procedure.

To calibrate, see the following procedure:

1. With no load on scale, place the indicator in its calibration mode and perform a zero calibration.

2. Place certified calibration weights on platform equal to 70%–100% of scale’s capacity. If several weights are used,

distribute them evenly around the platform.

3. Perform a calibration.

4. Remove certified calibration weights and check the zero reading. If necessary, repeat the calibration process.

See the indicator manual for the specific indicator calibration procedure.

2.6 Overload Stop Adjustment

The scale contains an overload protection screw on the bottom of the scale underneath the load cell and overload protection

stops in the four corners.

Figure 2-1. Overload Protection

1. To check or set the overload screw underneath the load cell, place 125% of capacity on the center of the scale.

2. Using the appropriate hex wrench, screw in the overload protection until it touches the load cell then back it off 1/6 turn.

3. Recheck calibration.

4. To check or set the corner overload stops, load the scale corner with 30% of scale capacity then adjust the screw

under that corner to just touch the top frame then tighten the locking nut if one is used.

If no locking nut is used, apply a drop of an industrial sealing agent to seal threads.

5. Repeat this process for each corner.

Ensure the load cell is not touching the overload protection screw below the load cell with the load on the corner.
