1. General description
Drive-through balances from 4B/NA series in basic version from lacquered steel,
ith SE-01/A/18 meter, are designed for operation in light environmental
conditions.
Manual describes standard balance version. In case of special meter use, e.g.
dosing meter, it is necessary to use documentation for meter as ell.
All balances are tested in respect of metrology. According to order, balances may
be verified or calibrated.
EC verification (conformity assessment) of balances is required for special
applications, mentioned in Ministry of Labour and Social Policy decree from
11.12.2003 (trade, tariffs, pharmacy recipes, medical and pharmaceutical analysis,
packing of goods). For other applications it is recommended to replace verification
ith calibration.
Verified balances have the follo ing verification features:
- protection stamps, located on balance meter and converters connection box
(installed under the bearing surface).
- Office of Measures marks and green metrological mark, located on the rating plate.
EC verification is valid for 25 months from 1st of December of year, hen the EC
verification took place, under condition of stamp integrity.
Balances classification (PKWiU code) 29.24.23.

4. Safety principles
It is necessary to become familiar ith safety
principles sho n belo , hich are necessary to avoid
electric shock and damage of balance or connected
devices.
• Repairs and necessary adjustments must be performed by qualified
personnel only.
• To avoid fire hazard, use only typical supply cable, and supply voltage
must be consistent ith technical data.
• For the balance supply use the socket ith protective contact.
• Do not use balance hen the cover is removed.
• Do not use balance in explosive atmosphere.
• Do not use balance in locations ith high humidity, hen the cover does
not have special protections (NAN types).
• In case of damage suspicion, s itch the balance off and do not use it until
it is tested in professional service company.
5. Principles of used balance treatment
According to valid regulations regarding natural
environment protection do not place used electronic
devices in containers ith common aste.
• Used balance after operation period may be transferred to units authorized
for collection of used electronic equipment, or to place of purchase.

7. Balance preparation to work
1. Unpack balance, removing protective
foils.
2. Place balance on flat, horizontal
foundation, in place not subjected to
mechanical vibrations and strong air
movements. Take care if the scale stays
on all four legs.
3. Air bubble in level should be located
in the middle position.
Good Bad
4. Lift scale corners up and put locks
under in such a ay that scale legs go
into prepared holes.
5. Mount locks permanently to the
ground using o10 holes.
6. Put balance approaches on settling
them into locks.
7. Unscre transport handles (mounted
for transport).
8. Connect the supply cable plug to
socket ith protective contact, hen
balance is unloaded.
9. In hermetic scales clog unused
connectors ith additional caps.

8 INSTRUCTION MANUAL

8. Balance start
Connecting of supply plug to socket of ~230V/50Hz installation ith unloaded
balance ill cause the follo ing sequence of actions:
Display test
Tests of basic electronic subassemblies,
ended ith messages: C1, C-2, ... C-6.
Displaying of soft are version.
Ready for operation.

9. Operation principles
1. Before each measurement the balance should be properly zeroed, hich is
signalled by “→0←” indicator. If the zero indication is not sho n hen the
balance is unloaded, or "----" is displayed, press the " →0← " key.
2. The balance enables tare setting in the hole measuring range. It is performed
by pressing " → T ← " key.
3. Weighed mass should be placed in the platform centre.
Do not drop weighed objects on the platform.
Do not overload the balance over 20% of maximum load.
4. The eighing result should be read during the " " indicator lighting, hich
indicates the result stabilization.
5. When there is no eighing, but the balance should be ready for operation, it may be s itched
off by I/ key. It causes the balance reading system deactivation end entering the
standby mode. Balance turning on is performed by pressing " I/ " key.
6. Protect the balance from dust, aggressive dusts and liquids. For cleaning
purposes use ater and dry it.

10 INSTRUCTION MANUAL
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
10. Balance test
During balance operation, in order to confirm its efficiency, it is recommended to
check the eighing precision by putting and object of exactly kno n eight before
and after series of measurements.
For testing of verified balances use eight standard, having valid standardization
certificates. In case of allo able measurement error exceeding contact authorized
service company to perform balance adjustment.
11. Balance adjustment
Balance adjustment must be performed by authorized service company
only, as it is connected ith necessity of seals breaching, required for
arranty purposes.
12. Connection with computer, printer or label printer
The scale is equipped ith RS232C or
RS485 (optional), hich can be used to
connect external devices such as a computer
or a printer. Detailed ay of communication
data is defined by one of protocol:
- LonG – protocol to printer and computer
- ELtron – protocol to label printer
When cooperating ith a printer data is send
automatically after result stabilisation, but
next transmission is possible after removing
previously eighted sample.
When protocol Long is chosen scale sends
result of eighting under the influence of
initializing signal from computer, or after
pressing a key.
When automatic transmission mode is
chosen (function PrInt), a printer data is send
automatically after result stabilisation, but
next transmission is possible after removing
previously eighted sample. The scale sends
follo ing information: successive number of
eighing, date and time (if clock module is
installed )and eighing result.
During transmission communicate Print is displayed. It is also possible by scale to
display text message sent from computer confirming received information.
