English
Span
1.
The span reference (test load) is simulated using the test weight.
2.
Place the test weight onto the test weight bracket.
3.
Perform the span calibration as described in the Calibration section of the integrator
instruction manual.
After completing the span calibration, remove the test weight and store it.
With a successful zero and span calibration, and with the test weight(s) removed from the
belt scale, the MCS belt scale system is ready for operation. Ensure that the belt scale
integrator is left in RUN mode.
Material Test
To achieve accuracy with respect to absolute values, perform material tests. Refer to the
associated integrator manual for instructions on material testing.
Re-Rating
If the rate, speed, or idler spacing is changed from the original design, you may need to
re-program the integrator and re-perform the calibration.
