3 Fundamental information (general)
It is essential to read through and observe the complete operating instructions before installing and commis-
sioning.
3.1 Intended use
The balance you have acquired serves to determine the weighing value of the material to be weighed. It is
intended to be used as a “non-automatic“ balance, i.e. the material to be weighed is manually and carefully
placed in the centre of the weighing plate. The weighing value can be read off after a stable weighing value
has been obtained.
3.2 Inappropriate use
Do not use the balance for dynamic weighing. In the event that small quantities are removed or added to the
material to be weighed, incorrect weighing results can be displayed due to the “stability compensation“ in the
balance. (Example: Slowly draining fluids from a container on the balance.)
Do not leave a permanent load on the weighing plate. This can damage the measuring equipment.
Be sure to avoid impact shock and overloading the balance in excess of the prescribed maximum load rating
(max.), minus any possible tare weight that is already present. This could cause damage to the balance.
Never operate the balance in hazardous locations. The series design is not explosion-proof.
Structural alterations may not be made to the balance. This can lead to incorrect weighing results, faults
concerning safety regulations as well as to destruction of the balance.
