6. WHERE TO INSTALL THE SMART BELT SCALE 1) The smart belt scale must be installed on a straight part of the conveyor. 2) To obtain accurate measurements, do not mount the weighing station in the following zones : C2
A1 A2
C1
B2 B1 B2
C
A
B
A : Loading zone : The loading zone length includes the material area (A1) + 5 times the belt length covered in 1 second at the maximum belt speed (A2). B : Transfer zone : The transfer zone is the curved zone between the horizontal and inclined belt (or vice versa). The transfer zone length includes the length of the curved zone (B1) + a safety margin (B2) corresponding to 2 of 3 idlers in straight areas of the conveyor. C : Unloading zone : The unloading zone length includes the length of the belt where the through flattens out to go around the drum (i.e. the area where the through angle is reduced) (C1) + 2 to 3 preceding idlers (C2). D : Areas subject to excessive vibrations.

3) Influence zone
The influence zone of the weigh idler includes two idler stations upstream and downstream from the weigh idler.
Weigh idler Upstream idler stations
Downstream idler stations
influence zone of belt scale 2 stations upstream and 2 stations downstream from the weigh idler
The empty belt should rest on every idler of the idler station in the influence zone.

4) Weighbridge zone Make sure that the idler stations forming the weighbridge are perpendicular to the conveyor Smart Belt Scale

In order to guarantee constant alignment, check the eccentricity of the weighbridge idlers. Their radial deviation must be less than 0,2 mm
comparator
Maximum of 0.2 mm radial deviation for one rotation of the idler.

5) Conveyor rigidity In the influence zone, the conveyor frame must be rigid and have a solid foundation (no risk of sinking). If necessary, reinforce the frame. 6) Belt tension The belt scale accuracy is influenced by changes in the belt tension. Make sure that the conveyor in which the belt scale is installed has a constant belt tension device. i.e. gravity take-up or similar. 7) Speed sensor The most favourable contact zone for the speed friction wheel is shown on the drawing below. f the speed wheel does not remain in contact with the belt, weigh down the wheel arm. Use the two 10 mm holes for this purpose. Maximum weight : 1 kg

8. INSTALLATION OF SINGLE IDLER BELT SCALE After having chosen a good location for installing the belt scale in accordance with the chapter 6, carry out the following installation procedure : 1) Slacken the belt 2) Select the idler station which is to be used as the weigh idler station. Measure the distance between the up and downstream idlers which will be the future weighbridge limiting idlers. The weighbridge length (WB) is usually 1.6, 2 or 2.4 m.

4) Loosen the belt and use wooden wedges (about 100 mm) to prop it up as shown.
5) Remove the idler station (which will be used as weigh idler) from the conveyor.
6) If the idler station height SH is < 145 mm see chapter 11. To prevent contact between the weigh idler station and conveyor girders, modify this idler station by mill-cutting a passage (see "A") or by cutting out a section at the end (see "B").

If c) : prepare for welding : earth the weigh station idler to prevent that electric current destroys the load cell. 10) Place the smart belt scale (without its weigh idler) on the conveyor girders. Center the weighing station supports exactly between the up and down stream idler stations (the axes of the three idler stations which form the weighbridge must be perpendicular to the conveyor girders). The load cell should be located downstream (as the belt travels) from the weighing idler. material direction load cell

9. DOUBLE OR MULTI-IDLER SBS
Several smart belt scales can be used as a multi-idlers belt scale. Place the smart belt scales into the conveyor according to the chapter 10. Only the first smart belt scale is equiped with the speed friction wheel. Connect the smart belt scales to each other using the specific cable.

10. INSTALLATION OF DOUBLE OR MULTI-IDLER BELT SCALE The explanation below is given for a double idler SBS, it is the same for a multi-idler SBS.The idler stations are represented closer and the shims bigger than in reality for better comprehension. After having chosen an appropriate location for installing the belt scales, carry out the following procedure : 1) Slacken the belt. 2) Select the idlers stations which are to be used as the weigh idler stations. Measure the distance between the internal up and downstream idler stations. The weighbridge length (WB) is usually 2,4 m, 3 m or 3,6 m. WB material direction

13. MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS FOR OTHER CONVEYORS The smart belt scale can be mounted in most conveyors; no special additional parts or instructions are required as long as the top of the conveyor chassis has a flat profile.
This is the case for 60 to 70 % of all commercially available conveyors. Other types of conveyor chassis are formed of tubes or have a rigit outer shell. Mount them as shown below : A. Conveyors with tube shaped chassis
