Operating information
6.1.4 Scales and weighing systems
Monitoring liquid volume within the imPULSE S.U.M. during operation
can be critical. This can also be a useful practice for increasing the
scalability of the imPULSE S.U.M. by starting the process run at
minimum operating volume.
Please ensure that load cells are locked down before any
movement of the imPULSE S.U.M. unit.
(Refer to section 2.2.1)
In order to ensure accurate mass measurements, tare your imPULSE
S.U.M. system using the following steps before filling the BPC with
liquid.
Note:
If you are using load cells, the Mass module must be
configured on the Touchscreen Console before you can tare the
system. See section 3.4.3 for information about configuring the Mass
module.
1. Verify that all parts of the mixer (probe door plates, probe clips, etc.)
are located on the outer support container. The BPC should also
be installed in the unit.
2. If you are not using load cells, tare the skid on the scale with the
BPC installed.
3. If you are using load cells, ensure that the Mass module on the
Touchscreen Console has been configured. Touch the Mass
module on the Home screen and select
