Batchweigher Installation & Adjustment
The batchweigher gauge is mounted on rubber isolation mounts attached to the
water tank support whilst the loadcell, attached to the gauge via a capillary hose is
mounted vertically on the mainframe behind the hopper cradle.
The capillary hose must on no account be disconnected from the gauge.
Although this manual contains a section on maintenance relating to the batchweigher
gauge in reality the gauge contains no user serviceable parts and we would
recommend that faulty units be returned to the factory for repair by the
manufacturers.
Installation
Note To attach the rubber mounts to a new gauge it will be necessary to drill out the
mounting flanges on the rear of the gauge to suit the mountings.
Raise and support the hopper. Attach the loadcell to the mainframe behind the pivot,
secure the capillary hose between the loadcell and gauge to the mainframe using the
“P” clips, setscrews, nuts and washers.
Adjust the height of the loadcell so that the adjustable striker bolt through the pivot
rest centrally on the loadcell. Tighten the setscrews securing the loadcell to the
mainframe and run the lower locking screw upto the loadcell before tighten the
locking nuts.
Lower the hopper and check the roller carried by the operating bracket which is in
turn attached to the rear of the hopper cradle enters the pivot bracket freely, if
necessary adjust the brackets position on the cradle before fully tightening the nuts,
bolts and washers.
Refer to the illustration and notes overleaf and adjust the position of the cradle
brackets so that the centre line of the pins
(item 16 & 17) lie parallel to the link arms
(item 9).
Adjust the striker bolt (item 8) so that equal clearances “X” are obtained between
the pivot shaft (item 3) and the slots in the cradle.
Zero the weighgauge using the knurled knot on the side of the gauge and place a
100 kilo weight into the hopper, carefully adjust the striker bolt so that the gauge
registers 100 kilo and tighten the locknut. If adjusting the striker bolt fails to give the
correct reading on the gauge it may be necessary to adjust the position of the
