Below-Balance Weighing
A port for a below-balance weighing hanger is
located on the bottom of the balance (for LC balances
with a capacity greater than 12 kg, see “Accessories”
in Part 6).
To fasten the hanger, open the below-balance port by
turning the cover plate.
Now you can attach a sample to the hook using a
suspension wire, for example. Common applications
for below-balance weighing include density
determination or immersing a sample in a special
atmosphere (medium for reaction).
When you use such below-balance weighing
hangers, you must install a draft shield (especially
on analytical balances).
Fastening an Antitheft Locking Device
To fasten an antitheft locking device, use the lug (18)
on the level indicator case of the balance.
Set up your balance at the point of use, and secure it
using a chain or lock.
Important Note for Verified Balances/Scales
Approved for Use as Legal Measuring Instruments
in the EU:
When a verified balance/scale is being used
as a legal measuring instrument, the below-balance
weighing port may not be opened.
