Getting Started
Storage and Shipping Conditions
– Do not expose the balance to
extreme temperatures, moisture, shocks,
blows or vibration.
Unpacking the Balance
§ After unpacking the equipment,
please check it immediately for any
external damage
$ If damage is evident, refer to the
instructions under “Safety Inspection"
in the chapter entitled “Care and
Maintenance."
$ Save the box and all parts of the
packaging for any future transport.
Disconnect all cables before packing
the balance for shipping!
Installation
Choose a location that is not subject
to the following negative influences:
– Heat (heater or direct sunlight)
– Drafts from open windows and doors
– Extreme vibrations during weighing
– Excessive moisture
Conditioning the Balance
Moisture in the air can condense on
the surfaces of a cold balance whenever
it is brought into a substantially warmer
place. If you transfer the balance to
a warmer area, make sure to condition it
for about 2 hours at room temperature,
leaving it unplugged from AC power.
Seal on Balances Verified for Use
in Legal Metrology in the EU*:
EU legislation requires that a control
seal be affixed to verified balances of
accuracy class K. The control seal
consists of a sticker with the “Sartorius"
logo. If the seal is broken, the verifi-
cation becomes null and void and the
balance must be re-verified.
* Including the Signatories of the Agree-
ment on the European Economic Area
