You will need to provide a PC or laptop to the following specification:

• OS: Windows 10 (32-bit / 64-bit) or Windows 11
• 4GB RAM
• 1 x USB-A 2.0 port (the cable provided is USB-A but you can use an adaptor e.g. if using a laptop)
• Administrator privileges will be needed for software installation
• Your choice of monitor, keyboard and mouse

Space

The operating space required varies with specification. You will also need to allow space for the laptop or desktop PC to control the instrument.

*A Benchtop Extender is available to support the labelling module where the bench top is not deep enough.

Environmental requirements - standard module

10° - 40°C, 10-90% RH for Standard Model XL9B

Note that the 4-place balance has specific requirements:

• Allowable temperature: 5° - 40°C
• Operating temperature: 10° - 30°C
• Mitigate possible sources of vibration as these will impact accuracy

Environmental requirements - cold room module

-10° - 40°C, 10-90% RH for Cold Room Model XL9B (functionally equivalent to the standard module but supplied with bearings, grease, etc. suitable for use in cold environments)

LabelPro can be used in a cold room environment (it has been operated at -10°C) but be aware that frost and condensation may challenge performance.

The 4-place balance can be supplied with a cold room XL9B, the recommended environmental conditions are then -4° - 40°C, 10-90% RH.

Power

The instrument requires 100-240VAC ~ 50/60Hz.
