DESCRIPTIVE ANNEX
Characteristics of the instrument:
The B Series comprises a BPS indicator (model) connected to a range of load cells to form a
family of Class III, mains or battery-operated, self-indicating, single or dual-interval, non-
automatic weighing instruments. The BPS indicator may be designated as the BPS and their
variants, BRS and BLS models depending upon the construction.
Max ≤ 30 kg
Min ≥ 40 g
e ≥ 2 g
n ≤ 6000 (for single-interval)
ni ≤ 3000 (for dual-interval)
The instrument may be used for direct sales to the public.
Model variants and designation:

Measuring range maximum voltage 19.5 mV
Fraction of maximum permissible error pi = 0.5
Load cell cable (from indicator to load cell 0.45 m/mm2 (4-wire configuration)
junction box) - Maximum length
Load cell:
Any compatible load cell(s) may be used providing the following conditions are met:
− There is a respective OIML Certificate of Conformity (R60) issued for the load cell.
− The certificate contains the load cell types and the necessary load cell data required
for the manufacturer’s declaration of compatibility of modules, and any particular
installation requirements. A load cell marked NH is allowed only if humidity testing to
R76 has been conducted on this load cell.
− The compatibility of the load cells and indicator is established by the manufacturer
by means of the compatibility of modules calculation at the time of verification.
− The load cell transmission conforms to a standard type.
Alternatively, the instruments may be fitted with one of the following ZEMIC load cells, model
L6D:
Max (kg) 6 6/15 15 15/30 30

Software:
The software is held in firmware on the circuit board, and has the identification number
V02.xx.xx, with xx.xx reflecting non-legally relevant changes. The software version number is
displayed at power-up.
Access to the legally relevant parameters and download of software is only possible via the
calibration switch on the main board.
Interfaces
The instrument may have the following interface types:
− USB
− Ethernet
− RS232
The instruments may be connected to an Electronic Point of Sale (EPOS), Electronic Cash
Register (ECR) or Electronic Fund Transfer (EFT/ECU).
Sealing:
Access to the electronics, load cell and calibration switch is prevented by sealing the enclosure
using a tamper-evident method – wire and seal solution.
Alternatives:
There are currently no authorised alternatives.
