MASS CONTROL

< Mass control> is a working mode that allows you to control mass of a product that is
automatically dispensed onto the weighing pan using balance-connected PA-02 automatic feeder.
The mode automatically controls a complete batch of tested product (batch quantity parameter must
be declared).

To enter Mass control mode settings press grey area workspace on the display and select "Settings"

29.2. Mass Control Process

Prior to process start carry out the following steps:
•
Set batch quantity for mass controls that are to be performed. Press grey workspace on a
display and select <
and enter quantity of units that are to be controlled in a current automatic mass control
process. Press
•
Set <Min> parameter, provide weight value lower than mass of the lightest controlled unit.
Select such threshold value that will prevent saving the measurement on the final report when
the dispensed element has lower mass than the smallest element in controlled series (e.g.
half of a pill). In case of the above situation, if <Min> parameter is set correctly, weighing
instrument's software omits such measurement and continues mass control process.
•
Set <Max> parameter. Select such threshold value that will prevent saving the measurement
on the final report when the dispensed element has greater mass than the biggest element in
controlled series (e.g. two elements dispensed at the same time). In case of the above
situation, if <Max> parameter is set correctly, weighing instrument's software omits such
measurement and continues mass control process.
•
Set < Dosing speed> parameter, determined in [%] between 0% and 100%, and nominal
mass, set limits for errors, with minus sign - <T4->; <T3->; <T2->; <T1->; <T1+>; <T2+>;
<T3+>; <T4+>, and maximum quantity of particular errors occurrence. Errors are set as
percent of nominal mass (relative value) or in mass unit (absolute value). Dosing speed, mass
values, Min and Max thresholds and errors are parameters specified individually for each
product.
Procedure:
1. Go to the home screen of <Mass control> mode, press SETUP button.
2. Select <
3. Enter <
4. Select product for which the values are to be set.
5. To enter error values and permissible quantity go to Setup/Databases/Product/SQC
parameter.
6. Set required parameters and return to the home screen.
•
Select controlled product from the products database <
The parameter requests a batch number before starting
mass control process.
The parameter determines quantity of a batch, i.e.
number of product units to be controlled.
The parameter switches on/off automatic printout of a
report upon mass control process completion.
The parameter enables selecting whether, upon control
process completion, a standard or a non-standard
printout is to be printed out.
