Should such an enclosure be unavoidable, an alternate method of platter
removal using two coins may be employed, however a minimum vertical
clearance of 1.5” (3.8 cm) MUST be provided (reference
Figure 2-2
).
Another consideration is that the scan zone must be kept free of obstruc-
tions such as enclosures, keyboard mounts, etc.

Ventilation and Spacing
The scanning-scale’s perimeter housing has been designed to provide ade-
quate space for convective cooling and unrestricted movement of the
weighing apparatus.
Figure 2-3
shows the debris chutes and ventilation
slots. The checkstand design must allow:
• The ambient air temperature inside the checkstand adjacent to
the scanner must not exceed 104°F (40°C).
• A source of air that provides adequate cooling by convective air
flow.
NOTE
DO NOT place the scanner in a close-fitting, fully enclosed checkstand. Pro-
vide a MINIMUM of 16 square inches (103.2 square centimeters) of air intake
from below the installation for sufficient convective cooling.
