Subject: Powernet: SAM-12 small article monitor question

The Vendor Manual states, "Articles of large weight...may require different 
procedures requiring Health
Physics intervention."

The manual does not provide a value, except 60 Kg when using scale.  Anybody 
out there define/describe or have a weight limit?
