Physical Parameters

This section provides specifications for performance, environmental and electrical parameters. Reference the second section of this manual, Site Preparation and Installation, for physical measurements of all models and some accessories.

Scanning

The scanner has a scan zone between the two windows where the scanner projects laser light in order to scan items. Two separate projections, one from the horizontal window and one from the vertical window, combine to form a zone where bar code labels are read. Refer to the Operation and Maintenance section of this manual for more details about the topic: Scanning Items.

Weighing

Specifications for scale capacity, settling time, minimum and maximum static weight, zeroing, and warm-up time are given below. For more information regarding the topic: Proper Weighing Technique, refer to the Operation and Maintenance section of this manual.

Rated Weight Capacity

30.00 pounds, displayed in 0.01 increments

OR

15.000 kilograms1, displayed in 0.005 increments.

Minimum Increment

The minimum weight that can be accurately measured by the scale is 0.02 lb. (0.005 kg).

Maximum Static Weight (Overload)
