Product Information

Full details

The Kern CCS 60K0.1 Counting System is designed for businesses needing to quickly and accurately count small parts or items in bulk. Its primary benefit is replacing multiple individual counting scales with a single, integrated system for improved efficiency. A potential caveat is the learning curve associated with setting up reference weights and quantities. This professional counting solution combines a Kern KFP Quantity Scale and a Kern CFS Reference Scale, enabling simultaneous weighing and counting with programmable units for precise adjustments.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the maximum weight capacity of the Kern CCS 60K0.1?

The Kern CCS 60K0.1 has a weight capacity of 60kg.

Can I use the system to count items of different sizes?

Yes, as long as the items are uniform in weight and density, the system can count them. The reference weight programmed is crucial for accuracy.

How do I program a new item into the memory?

You can program new items using the Kern CFS numerical keypad by entering the reference quantity and known reference weight. Refer to the operating instructions for the specific steps.

Is the scale portable?

While the system includes a platform scale design, it requires a stable surface and AC/DC power, making it best suited for a fixed location or occasional moves rather than frequent portability.

What is included in the box?

The box contains the Kern CCS 60K0.1 system, which includes the Reference balance KERN CFS, the Bulk material balance KERN KFP, Operating instructions for KERN CFS/CCS, and Operating instructions for KERN KFP.

Can this scale connect to a computer?

Yes, the scale features an RS232 interface for connecting to computers or other data logging devices.

Troubleshooting

Scale does not power on

Ensure the AC/DC power adaptor is securely connected to both the scale and a working power outlet. Check if the power indicator light is on.

Inaccurate counts

Verify that the scale is on a level surface. Re-calibrate the scale using a known reference weight. Ensure the correct reference quantity and reference weight are programmed for the item being counted. Check for any debris on the weighing pans.

RS232 interface not communicating

Confirm that the RS232 cable is properly connected to both the scale and the external device. Ensure the communication settings (baud rate, data bits, etc.) match on both the scale and the connected device. Refer to the operating manual for specific RS232 settings.

Display is unresponsive

Power cycle the scale by unplugging it, waiting 30 seconds, and plugging it back in. If the issue persists, contact customer support.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Streamlines inventory management and order fulfillment.
  • Reduces counting errors and saves labor time.
  • Versatile with programmable features for specific needs.
  • Integrated system simplifies workflow compared to separate scales.
  • RS232 interface allows for easy data integration.

Cons

  • Initial setup may require a learning period.
  • Requires careful calibration for optimal accuracy.
  • Bulk material balance (KFP) and reference balance (CFS) are separate components requiring careful placement.
  • Splash-proof but not fully waterproof; handle with care around liquids.
  • AC/DC power adaptor required for operation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure both the Kern KFP Quantity Scale and the Kern CFS Reference Scale are placed on a stable, level surface.
  2. Connect the scales to a power source using the provided AC/DC mains power adaptor.
  3. Follow the operating instructions provided for the Kern CFS/CCS and Kern KFP scales to perform initial setup and calibration.
  4. Program units using the Kern CFS numerical keypad by entering the reference quantity and known reference weight for the items to be counted.

Compatibility:

The RS232 interface allows for communication with most computers and data logging devices that support serial communication. Ensure your external device has a compatible serial port or adapter.

Care:

  • The display is splash-proof and covered with a membrane; wipe clean with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • The lacquered steel platform can be wiped down with a damp cloth. Ensure the scale is powered off before cleaning.
  • Avoid exposing the scale to extreme temperatures, humidity, or direct sunlight for extended periods.
  • Handle the scale with care to prevent damage from impacts.
