Use the weighing terminal only when electrostatic processes leading to propagation brush
discharge is impossible.
Keep the terminal away from processes that generate high charging potential such as
electrostatic coating, rapid transfer of non-conductive materials, rapid air jets, and high
pressure aerosols.
Choose a stable, vibration-free surface to mount the terminal
Ensure there are no excessive fluctuations in temperature and no direct exposure to sunlight
Avoid drafts on the weighing platform (for example, from open windows or air conditioning)
Calibrate the terminal after any major change of geographical location
IMPORTANT: Not all models in the IND560 terminal family can be operated in areas classified
as Hazardous because of the combustible or explosive atmospheres in those areas. Before
