What to do if the CBE 520 Industrial Equipment controller does not light up?
- A
  Andrew RobbinsJul 28, 2025
  If the controller for your CBE Industrial Equipment doesn't light up, start by ensuring the power switch on the PLC enclosure is turned 'on'. Next, inspect the 110v fuse on the transformer and replace it if necessary. Also, check that the E-stop is pulled out. Then, check the round in-line fuse in the GSE controller and replace if bad. Look for any loose wires and ensure they are properly connected. If none of these steps work, the LED display board may be faulty.

Why is my CBE Industrial Equipment showing erratic weights?
- J
  Joshua Burgess DVMAug 3, 2025
  To address erratic weights with your CBE Industrial Equipment, consider that erratic material flows from the supply bin may be due to not maintaining a consistent head pressure of material above the packer causing inconsistent flow. You can also increase the dribble weight setting. Another solution is to adjust the reed sensor on the slide gate cylinder, inspecting and adjusting as needed. Finally, check the Ohms on each load cell against the chart to ensure they are within specification.

  Robert SmithAug 10, 2025
  If the digital readout on your CBE Industrial Equipment doesn't match the floor scale, you can try the following adjustments: target and dribble, pre-act in the controller, and offset compensation. Check for any binding on the load cells. If problems persist, recalibrate the scale.

How to fix dirty filling with CBE 520 Industrial Equipment?
- T
  Theodore BraunAug 16, 2025
  To resolve a 'dirty filling' issue with your CBE Industrial Equipment, consider these points: the dust collection pickup volume may be insufficient. Ensure the bag seal is inflated enough to prevent material from bypassing the seal. Verify the operator is placing the bag neck far enough onto the filler spout. Finally, check for a bad bag seal.

Why CBE Industrial Equipment controller does not return to 0.00?
- C
  Christine CraneAug 21, 2025
  If the controller on your CBE Industrial Equipment does not return to '0.00', check the following: ensure all four load cell feet are firmly touching the floor; check the ohms of each load cell to see if they are within proper range; check load cell connections; check the alignment of the load cell; check to see if any load cells are loose; check for binding where the dust collection hookup connects in the filler head area; check for possible buildup of material between the filler head and the dust collector pipe; check for possible material buildup between the floor and the main frame; check for influences from airlines that may be too tight pulling on the scale; check for loose bolts on the load cell.
