Ambient Conditions 
 
Unfavourable ambient conditions can influence weighing results. 
 
Therefore, please select a suitable place to set up 
your scale. lt should not be exposed to the 
following: 
 
 - heat radiation 
 
 - drafts 
 
 -  vibrations 
 
 - aggressive chemical atmospheres (the scale must not be used in a 
hazardous location/area) 
 
Do not expose the scale to extreme moisture over long periods. 
Moisture in the air can condense on the surfaces of a cold scale 
whenever it is brought to a substantially warmer area. lf you need to 
transfer the scale to a warmer area, make sure to condition it for 
about 2 hours at room temperature, leaving it unplugged. Afterwards, 
ifyou keep the scale connected to AC power, the continuous positive 
difference in temperature between the inside of the scale and the 
outside will practically ruie out the effects of moisture condensation. 
The components used in the scale are rated to at least Class KSF 
according to DIN 40040. 
 
Your Sartorius scale provides accurate readouts even when it is 
exposed to unfavorable ambient conditions. 
You can adapt the scale to your requirements simply by changing the 
code settings in the scale operating menu. For more information, 
please read pages 21 through 23.
