2-20 METTLER TOLEDO IND131/IND131x/IND331/IND331xx Installation Manual
The integrity of the power ground for the harsh and J-box versions is important for both
safety and dependable operation of the terminal and its associated scale base. A poor
ground can result in an unsafe condition should an electrical short develop in the
equipment. A good ground connection also minimizes extraneous electrical noise pulses.
The IND131/331 should not share power lines with noise-generating equipment. To
confirm power conditions, use a commercial branch circuit analyzer. If adverse power
conditions exist, a dedicated power circuit or power line conditioner might be required.
FOR CONTINUED PROTECTION AGAINST SHOCK HAZARD CONNECT THE AC VERSION OF THE
HARSH AND JUNCTION BOX ENCLOSURES TO PROPERLY GROUNDED OUTLET ONLY. DO NOT
REMOVE THE GROUND PRONG.
IND131xx and IND331xx terminals when installed inside Division 2 or Zone 2/22
