Each component is connected together with a single cable and the displays can be located to suit the check-in counter layout. All connections are plug in, so no on-site wiring is necessary. A description of each component is given below.

Baggage scale specifications (general)

Scale base

A typical Atrax scale base is shown below, modified for the dimensions to suit client check-in conveyors.

All Atrax scales use our OIML and NTEP approved high-precision load cells to guarantee accuracy, repeatability and reliability.

The Atrax scale is provided with two display panels, one for the passenger to view and another for the ticket agent or operator. These displays may be flush mounted to form an integral part of the check-in counter. All display units have clear digital readouts that can be easily seen under airport lighting.

The high-resolution LCD display ensures Chinese characters can be correctly displayed.

The Operator panel is made from rugged ABS material whilst the passenger display panels are finished in stainless steel. This provides a very robust and long-lasting surface with the attractive look so necessary for a modern airport. The Operator panel can also be incorporated into a stainless steel Extended Operator Panel to include conveyor controls.

The Operator panel is fitted with five soft-touch, yet tough, silicone rubber push buttons to control the scale functions. One button is for quickly and simply setting the scale reading to zero, which should only need to be done very occasionally. A further three buttons are for the totalise feature that indicates the cumulative weight of a passenger’s luggage, or the total weight of a group’s baggage. The final button is programmable and can be used for options such as ‘Print’ ‘Send Data’ ‘Belt Start’ or other user defined functions. Included in the scale electronics are a number of standard features that may be used or disabled. These include:

• An overweight bag signal with the choice of visual indication, audible indication and/or an output signal for external use. (E.g. for inhibiting conveyor induction of an overweight bag).
• A serial communication port for connection to computers or a printer.

The design of the Atrax ABS960+ baggage scale has been optimised for very easy installation and minimum time to install. There are only three cables to install including the mains power lead. Each cable has a plug fitting on both ends and can only plug in one way, therefore eliminating incorrect hook-up.

Once the displays and scale base have been set in place, they are simply plugged together with the cables supplied. The scale can then be turned on and its calibration checked by placing a known weight on the scale. Any calibration adjustment found necessary can easily be made via the front panel pushbuttons in only a few minutes.
