3.8 Weight calibration
Since the Earth's gravity is not the same everywhere, each balance
must be adjusted to compensate for the gravity at each location, in
accordance with the underlying physical weighing principle. This
adjustment process, which is known as “calibration”, must be
carried out on initial installation and then each time the instrument
is moved to another location. However, in order to get exact
measurements, the instrument should also be recalibrated
periodically.
NOTE
The MRS 120-3 moisture analyzer must be calibrated when it is
initially installed and then each time it is moved to another location.
If you work in accordance with “Good Laboratory Practice GLP”, observe
the prescribed intervals between calibrations (adjustments).
The calibration is set in the configuration menu (see chapter 4.4.5
"Balance calibration")
With the aid of the “Intelligent Calibration Mode” (ICM), the
instrument can determine the size of the calibration weight itself,
facilitating exact calibration with different size weights (in 10 g
increments);(see chapter 7.3.1 "Calibrating the balance")
