Section 1: General Information 1.1. SCOPE This manual provides general installation and maintenance instructions for the Fairbanks Scales’ 9104 FB Series Omnicell. Almost every installation is different, so please adjust the following information, as needed, for your application. Specifications, parameters and application notes are included.
Section 1: General Information These Omnicells are designed to be mechanically fastened to the load carrier and the foundation fasteners are not included. 1.4.

Section 2: Company Service Information 2.1. GENERAL SERVICE POLICY Prior to installation, always verify that the equipment satisfies the customer's requirements as supplied, and as described in this manual. If the equipment cannot satisfy the application and the application cannot be modified to meet the design parameters of the equipment, the installation should NOT be attempted.
Section 2: Company Service Information 2.2. OVERVIEW 2.2.1. Physical Installation Notes • Check all devices for proper operation. If any error messages occur, refer to Troubleshooting or the proper manual of that device. • Only those charges which are incurred as a result of the equipment's inability to be adjusted to performance specifications may be charged to warranty. • No physical alterations (mounting holes, etc.) are allowed during installation.
Section 2: Company Service Information 2.2.3. Pre-Installation Checklist The following points should be checked and discussed with the Area Sales Manager and/or customer, if necessary, before the technician goes to the site and installs the equipment. Check the customer's application to make certain it is within the capabilities and design parameters of the equipment. If the installation process might disrupt normal business operations, tell the customer and ask that they make adequate arrangements.
Section 2: Company Service Information 2.2.5. Equipment Checkout Position the equipment with these points in mind: Intense direct sunlight can harm the display. Do not locate near magnetic material or equipment/Instruments which use magnets in their design. Avoid areas which have extreme variations in room temperatures. Temperatures outside the Instrument’s specifications will affect the weighing accuracy of this product.
Section 2: Company Service Information 2.2.7. Installation Considerations Thorough application review should be conducted before, during and after installation: Determining Omnicell Capacity - Sizing the Omnicell (general rule) – Take the overall live and dead load of the vessel. Multiply by 2, then divide by the number of support points (legs, typically).
Section 2: Company Service Information Eliminate mechanical constraints – The vessel should be fully supported on the Omnicells. Reduce or eliminate any mechanical issues which will interfere with the vessel’s deflection, such as: rigid vertical or horizontal piping (use flexible piping when connecting to the vessel whenever possible), ladders, catwalks, etc.
Section 3: Scale Installation 3.1. INTRODUCTION The service information contained in this manual is restricted for use by authorized, qualified service personnel only. Under no circumstances are unauthorized personnel to disassemble or otherwise tamper with this, or any related equipment. CAUTION NO ARC WELDING is permitted near Omnicell installations. Severe damage to the load cells can occur. If welding is required, remove the load cell or remove the unit and install blocks. 3.2.
Section 3: Scale Installation • Mechanical iii. Hammer drill with bit – size dependent on the size of the Omnicell, reference the proper drawings for specifics. iv. Wedge anchor bolts, epoxy anchor bolts, hex head bolt, etc. for both the base assembly and top plate. v. Bolt size determine by capacity of Washers vi. Quantity of fasteners dependent on the application. vii. Hand or power tool to secure fasteners i. Grease and anti-seize d.
Section 3: Scale Installation 2. The load on each Omnicell should be roughly equal. This can be easily checked by measuring the millivolt output signal or output counts from each load cell assembly. Shim as required to equalize the load cell output signals. For tank or hopper applications the signal output should be within +/- 20% of the load on each Omnicell used in the installation. 3. Since the Omnicells have a maximum deflection of about 0.
Section 4: Electrical Installation 4.1. ANALOG JUNCTION BOX 1. Introduction – The analog j-box should be installed on the vessel, and in an easily accessible location, whenever possible. It is recommended that it be installed in a vertical position. 2. Description – The analog j-box has four (5) terminal blocks to connect four (4) load cells and one (1) for a cable that connects to the analog instrument. Load cells are adjusted using adjusting potentiometers. 3. Installation – a.
Section 4: Electrical Installation Notes: 07/13 • This Omnicell is designed to provide protection from the effects of moisture. The load cells is calibrated with the cable attached, and therefore the cable should NOT be cut. • The cable is connected directly to the junction box or SSC through a sealed bushing that MUST be tightened properly to keep water/moisture out of the box. • All cabling must have a drip loop at the cell or box entry location to help prevent water entry.
Section 4: Electrical Installation 4.2. WIRING FOR INTALOGIX™ SYSTEMS 1. Introduction – Intalogix™ systems utilize smart sectional controllers (SSCs) and pit power supplies (PPSes) for load cell excitation and signal processing. 2. Description – SSC boxes have four (4) terminals, two (2) for load cells, and two (2) for interconnecting to other SSC boxes or terminating to a pit power supply. Make sure the proper number of SSC boxes are order based on the application requirements.

Section 5: Maintenance 5.1. SCALE MAINTENANCE 1. Check for accumulations of solid material under the Omnicells that may affect the accuracy (ice, frozen mud, debris). 2. Check to see that the customer is doing routine cleaning around the vessel. 3. Inspect load cells for damage to the ends/cables. 4. Inspect and adjust all check bolts (if applicable) using anti-seize on the threads. 5. Check for all clearances around the scale for any obstructions or interference with the free movement of the platform. 6.
