Why does the weight readout on my Sartorius BA 210 S change constantly?

  Annette MullinsAug 13, 2025
  The weight readout may change constantly on your Sartorius Scales due to several factors. Unstable ambient conditions may be the cause, so try setting up the balance in another area. Excessive vibration or drafts could also be the reason; access the menu to adapt the balance to the particular weighing environment. Ensure the draft shield is completely closed. Check for any foreign object caught between the pan and the balance housing and remove it. Make sure that the port for the below-balance weighing attachment is covered by fastening the closing plate. Also, consider if the sample has a stable weight, because it may absorb moisture or evaporate.

  Scott SmithAug 20, 2025
  If the weight readout on your Sartorius Scales is obviously wrong, there are several potential causes. The balance might not be calibrated; in this case you should calibrate it. Alternatively, the balance may not have been tared before weighing, so tare it before weighing. Also, check that the air bubble in the level indicator is within the circle and level the balance if it is not.

  If the weight display on your Sartorius Scales shows "L" or "Err 54", it indicates that the weighing pan, pan support, and/or compensating ring are not in place. Install the weighing pan, pan support (if your model has one), and compensating ring (if applicable to your model).
