1 Introduction

OverviewMETTLER TOLEDO 0978 tension weigh modules for hopper and tank scales aredesigned for installations requiring suspended mounting. The system safely toleratesadverse loads commonly present in industrial weighing applications while providingrepeatable, accurate weighments.

The tension weigh module incorporates an NTEP or OIML Certified load cell, andincludes special mounting hardware to ensure that the load cell measures only the truevertical load.

Individual weigh modules allow maximum application flexibility. Hoppers and tanks of

most sizes and shapes are easily suspended. Each tension weigh module has excellent inherent side-load rejection characteristics to compensate for non-axial loading.

Check Rods/BumpersThe suspended hopper/tank system requires no check rods or bumpers to provide anaccurate weighing system. In some applications, however, rods or bumpers may berequired (see Figures 3-1 and 3-2) to prevent movement that could cause misalignment of valves and gates, or slow settling times. Contact your local authorized METTLERTOLEDO distributor for design assistance.

Chapter 2: Sizing Load CellsOverview

(8/00) 2-1

2 Sizing Load Cells

OverviewUse the following method to determine the most appropriate 0978 tension weigh modulesystem for your application:

1. Calculate the tank/hopper tare weight (weight of empty apparatus), plus attachedplumbing, agitators, vibrators, external forces, etc.

2. Estimate the maximum weight of the tank/hopper contents (net product weight).

3. Use the sum of the empty weight and the net weight to arrive at the grosstank/hopper weight.

4. Multiply the gross tank/hopper weight by 1.25, then divide that number by the totalnumber of cells to determine the minimum recommended load cell capacity. (The1.25 factor is an allowance for low-tare estimates and unequal load distribution.)Minimum Load Cell Capacity = 1.25 gross capacity/number of cells.

NOTE: A vessel situated outdoorsmay be exposed to external forcessuch as wind, updraft, etc. Considerthese forces when selecting a loadcell.

Load cell capacity must be largerthan the highest distributed load.

3 Installation Guidelines

Instructions

WARNINGPERMIT ONLY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL TO SERVICE THISEQUIPMENT. EXERCISE CARE WHEN MAKING CHECKS,TESTS, AND ADJUSTMENTS THAT MUST BE MADE WITHPOWER ON. FAILING TO OBSERVE THESE PRECAUTIONSCAN RESULT IN BODILY HARM.

WARNINGUSE SAFETY CHAINS OR RODS TO PREVENT VESSEL FROM FALLING IN CASE OFCOMPONENT FAILURE.

1. Place the load cells around the vessel so that each support point carries an equalportion of the load.

2. If the weighing system is subject to horizontal movement, provide suitable checkrods to limit horizontal movement to less than 1/8 inch (see Figures 3-1 and 3-2).

3. Prevent nuts on support bolts or at both ends of the support rods from turning bypinning, staking, or other means.

4. The use of top and bottom backing plates allows for fit-up during installation. Tack weld the backing plates in place after verifying that all cell assemblies hangvertically (see Figure 3-3).

5. To maintain the systems weighing accuracy, deflection of all scale support steelmust not exceed 1/16 inch under full working load.

6. Use flexible lines on all dead-to-live connections. Rigid line connections should belong enough to deflect without contributing weighing error.

7. Properly vent the tank or hopper system to prevent pressure imbalances.

8.

If test weights are to be used, distribute them evenly, making sure they aresupported by or from the vessel, platform, or hopper to simulate the actual loaddistribution.

NOTE: Provide a means for hangingtest weights from the vessel beforebeginning installation.

6 Calibration

Overview


After installing the weigh modules and the instrument, you must calibrate the system. If the scale is used for legal trade (buying and selling) purposes, calibrate it with certifiedtest weights traceable to a recognized standard.

Plan provisions for calibration in advance: Always contact the local Weights andMeasures authorities prior to any scale installation to verify exact requirements forcalibration and certification.

To achieve maximum accuracy and Weights and Measures authorities approval,perform the final check using approved test weights. In certain instances, a combinationof test weights and material in the tank or hopper can be built up to the necessary

weight.

Calibration with TestWeights

1. Remove all weight from the vessel.

2. Zero the indicator (follow manufacturers instructions).

3. Evenly distribute the test weights on the vessel. For best results, test weights shouldequal or approach scale capacity.

4. Adjust the indicator until it reads the weight applied to the vessel.

5. Remove the test weights and check the return to zero. Adjust if necessary.

6. Re-apply the weights to verify the calibration.

NOTE: Refer to the proper users guidefor calibration procedures for yourdigital indicator.

If the hopper or tank is located highabove the floor, it may be feasible tosuspend test weights from below. If the tank or hopper is situated close tothe floor and you must place the test

weights on the structure, you mayneed to provide brackets or shelvesfor safety.

8 Troubleshooting

Isolate the Problem


To determine whether the problem is in the scale assembly or the indicator:

1. Remove power from the system.

2. Disconnect the 0978 scale assembly and connect an analog load cell simulator tothe indicator (analog simulator available from METTLER TOLEDO).

3. Reapply power and test.

4. If the problem persists, consult the indicator manual for further troubleshootingassistance.

If the problem is NOT present with the load cell simulator attached to the indicator:

1. Remove power.

2. Disconnect the simulator, and reconnect the 0978 scale assembly.

3. If the problem re-occurs, further scale assembly troubleshooting is required.

Check Wiring1. Remove power from the system.

2. Remove the cover from the junction box and check the interior for moisture,corrosion, or any foreign material.

3. Ensure that all wiring connections are tight and that no insulation material istouching the terminal contacts. Check all cable connections for correct wiring. The

wiring color codes for Analog and DLC modes are provided in Chapter 5.

4. Check all cable connectors on the junction box. Tighten any loose connectors.

8/10/2019 0978 8-00

30/48


(8/00)8-2

Check Load Cells1. Remove power from the system. Fully disconnect each load cell and check for

proper input/output resistances (see Table 8-1).

Measuring Points Resistance Any lead to shield or ground Infinity

+Exc (Green) to -Exc (Black) 350 Ohm minimum

+Signal (White) to -Signal (Red) 347 to 353 Ohms

Table 8-1: Load Cell Resistance

2. If resistance is within specification, perform a shorted-signal symmetry test. Short the signal leads together and place one multimeter lead on the shorted

signals and one lead on the +Excitation wire. Note the resistance value.

Remove the lead from the +Excitation wire and place it on the Excitation wire.The two resistance values should be approximately equal.

3. If the load cells pass the shorted-signal test, reconnect them and reapply power tothe scale. Confirm that the proper excitation voltage is reaching the load cells byplacing multimeter leads on the excitation positions of each load cell terminal.

4. If proper excitation voltage is reaching the load cells, check the output signal fromeach cell by disconnecting the signal leads and measuring voltage output. If onecell has a particularly high or low dead-load output, it is suspect. The maximumoutput possible from any cell is 30 mV at 15 VDC excitation and loaded to grosscapacity.

5. If any load cell has an unusual signal, remove all load from that cell.

With the power on, measure the output from the suspect load cell. The no-loadzero output should be 1.0% of the full scale output. For example, if theexcitation voltage is 15 VDC, then the full scale output would be 30 mV andthe no-load zero output should be within 0.3 mV.

6. If a load cell fails any of the above tests, replace it.

Check MechanicalComponents

Due to the simplicity of the 0978 weigh modules, there are few mechanical componentsto troubleshoot: Make sure the safety rods are plumb (hanging vertically). Tighten all jam nuts. Check for wear or damage at rod end bearings, clevis pins, or clevis brackets. Check for any environmental influences such as wind, temperature, or vibrations. Check for mechanical binds in the piping connections, etc.
