ADVICE
Example of an amount limit set too low:
There are no beets on sieve chain of the truck conveyor, yet the weight of the current
loading increases slowly.
Cause: The amount of dirt adhering to the conveyor since the last zeroing causes
a load that is already above the amount limit. This dirt is now weighed. Also, too
high conveyor tension can be the reason for adding up and displaying some loading
weight.
Example of an amount limit set too high:
Beet is permanently falling from the truck conveyor onto the transport vehicle. 2
beets or more every second. Nevertheless, the weight of the current loading does not
increase.
Cause: The beet quantity is not high enough to bring the load above the amount limit.
Especially when driving into a beet pile (when many beets come over the previously
empty truck conveyor) and at the end of the pile during residual beet pickup (less
beets, at the end only a few beets come in one minute), a correctly set truck conveyor
is crucial for a good weighing result.
ADVICE
For the highest possible weighing accuracy, the conveyor section of the machine
should not be allowed to run empty when a truck is changed. Thus, any devia-
tion caused by falling below the amount limit is avoided. The truck conveyor starts
smoothly even when loaded due to the proportional control of the pump.
6.16.2.5 Reset the currently loaded weight
There are two ways to reset the weight of the current loading (14) after changing
trucks.
– Touch the switch panel (6).
– Keys on the right joystick. Press and hold keys (11), (12) and (13) simultaneously
for a short time and then release them. This function is not yet implemented in the
machine software ( as of August 7, 2023).
