1 Introduction
Thank you for purchasing a KERN WTB scale. These scales are rugged, simple to operate, and can be
used without connection to an external power supply. The scale has a menu system which allows it to
be adapted to your needs.
Please read through these Operating Instructions carefully, and always follow them!
1.1 Safety and the environment
–Read through these Operating Instructions carefully, even if you already have ex-
perience of KERN scales. Only ever use your scale as described in the Operating
Instructions. Be sure to follow the instructions for putting your new scale into
operation.
–Do not use the scale in a explosive environment.
– For connectiontothepowersupply use only the AC adapter delivered with the scale.
Before you connect the scale to the power supply check that the voltage stated on the
AC adapter is the same as the local power supply voltage. If it is not, do not connect
the AC adapter under any circumstances but contact your dealer.
– Although your scale is very ruggedly constructed, it is nevertheless a precision
instrument. Impacts to the weighing pan, or placing excessively heavy loads on it, can
damage the scale.
–Observe local and national environmental regulations when disposing of the scale.
The scale is fitted with a storage battery that contains heavy metals. Do not dispose
of the battery as normal waste! Observe local regulations for disposal of environmen-
tally harmful substances.
1.2 Selecting a location
Selecting a suitable location makes a decisive contribution to precise measurement results
and lengthens the service life of the scale:
– Choose a stable, vibration-free surface which is as horizontal as possible.
– Ensure there are no excessive fluctuations in temperature, and no direct sunlight.
– Make sure that the environmental conditions are met (Chapter 9.1).
– Avoid drafts (e.g. from fans or air conditioning).
– After any major change of geographical position, the scale should be newly adjusted
(calibrated) (Chapter 4.3).

2 Puttingthescaleintooperation
2.1 Remove the transport arrestment
• Remove the 3 screws of the transport arrestment in the weighing-pan
support and the 3 plastic inserts between the weighing-pan support
and the scale housing.
• Place the weighing pan on the scale.
2.2 Leveling the scale
• Level the scale horizontally by turning the leveling screws. The air
bubble of the level indicator must lie within the black inner circle.
2.3 Power supply
The scale is normally powered by the built-in storage battery. The AC adapter is only used for charging
the storage battery. While the battery is being charged, the scale receives power from the power supply
network, so you can still work with the scale even if the battery needs recharging. Battery charging also
continues while the scale is switched off. The time required for recharging depends on how low the charge
in the battery has become. However, to avoid overcharging the battery, do not leave the scale connected
to the power supply with the AC adapter for more than 24 hours.
Battery operation (AC adapter not connected)
Observe the red LED above the battery symbol Y:
LED is not lit: The battery is sufficiently charged.
LED flashes: The charge of the battery is almost exhausted. Connect
the AC adapter as soon as possible to recharge the battery.
Charging the battery/operating from the power supply
The connecting socket for the AC adapter is located underneath the
balance adjacent to the front-left leveling screw. Remove the rubber
plug and connect the AC adapter to the scale and to the power supply.
Observe the red LED above the battery symbol d:
LED flashes: The scale is receiving power from the power supply
network, the battery is being charged.
LED is continuously lit: The battery is fully charged, the AC adapter
can be disconnected again.

3.1 Switching the scale on and off
Toswitchthescaleon: Check that there is nothing on the weighing pan.
Press the ON/OFFkey until the display appears. After the scale has been
switched on, it performs a self-test in which all the segments and then
various items of information about the scale are briefly displayed. When
the weight display appears, the scale is ready to weigh and is
automatically set to zero (the LED above the a symbol is lit).
To switch the scale off: Press the ON/OFF key and hold it down until
“OFF” appears in the display. The display then goes out, and the scale
is switched off.
Energy-saving function and automatic switchoff
For battery operation the scale has an energy-saving function and
an automatic switchoff function which can be both activated and
deactivated in the menu (Chapter 4).
If the energy-saving function is activated (factory setting), when the
scale is powered from the battery it automatically switches into
“Standby” mode after two minutes if no weight change takes place
and no key is pressed. The display is filled with decimal points instead
of digits. As soon as a weight is placed on the pan or a key is pressed,
the scale returns to normal weighing mode.
If the automatic switchoff function is activated (it is deactivated at
the factory), the scale switches off automatically after 15 minutes in
“Standby” mode.
3.2 Simple weighing
• Set the scale to zero with the a key. The LED above the a symbol lights as confirmation.
• Place the item to be weighed on the pan. The LED above the a
symbol goes off.
• Read off the weighing result. The LED to the right of the weighing
result shows the current weighing unit (the unit can be changed in
the menu, see Chapter 4).
3.3 Weighing with tare

• Place the empty weighing container or packaging component on the weighing pan and press the TARE
key to tare the scale. The zero display appears and the LED above the NET (net weight) symbol is lit.
• Place the item to be weighed on the scale and read the result (net
weight of the item being weighed).
The saved tare weight is retained until you either define a new tare, or
press the TARE key when the weighing pan is empty, or switch off the
scale.
Defininglimitvalues
• Press the F key. The current upper limit value is displayed (the LED
above the + symbol is lit). If you want to set an upper limit value,
continue with the next step. If you want to set a lower limit value,

press the ON/OFF key and the LED above the symbol will be lit.
Every time the ON/OFFkey is pressed, the scale changes between the
upper and the lower limit value.
• The first digit of the selected limit value flashes and can now be
changed. If you do not want to change the first digit, press the F key
and the second digit will start to flash. Each time the F key is
pressed, the display moves to the next digit. After the last digit the
display returns to the first digit.
• To change the selected (flashing) digit, press the TARE key repeat-
edly until the desired number is displayed. Then press the F key to
move to the next digit and change this digit.
• To complete the input, press the a key. The scale stores the limit
value and returns to weighing mode.

3.4 Weighing with limit values
You can define an upper and a lower limit value and thereby ensure that the amount of substance weighed
is always exactly within the defined tolerances.
Note: Limit-value monitoring is switched off at the factory and must be activated in the menu if required
(Chapter 4.2, menu item S3). You can also specify in the menu whether the balance should warn of
violations of limit values.

The scale was adjusted at the factory. However, we still recommend adjusting the scale when it is put into
operation for the first time, and thereafter at regular intervals, especially after a change of location.
Adjustment can only be done in service mode (see chap.4.1). Before doing the adjustment, the geo
adjustment value must be checked for correctness in the “GEO” menu block (see table in Chapter 7).
• In service mode call up the “CAL” menu block. With the TARE key select “CAL YES” and then start the
adjustment with the ON/OFF key.
• Select the desired weight unit for the adjustment and confirm with
the ON/OFF key. The units available depend on the selected region
(menu block “CTY”): for the setting “EU” (Europe) only “kg” is
available while for the setting “GE” (USA) there is a choice between
“kg” and “lb”.
• Select the maximum capacity of the scale (this is printed below
the display, adjacent to the level indicator) and confirm it with the
ON/OFF key. Note: The values in the display have a 1000x
higher resolution, i.e. a displayed value of 6000 represents 6 kg
or 6 lb (depending on the unit selected previously) and a display-
ed value of 15000 represents 15 kg or 15 lb.
• The scale prompts you to empty the weighing pan. Remove any
loads on the pan and confirm this with the ON/OFF key. The scale
then performs a zero setting during which a counter is displayed
which counts backwards from 5 to 1.
• After the zero setting, your are prompted to place an adjustment
weight on the pan which corresponds to 2/3oftheselected capa-
city (in this example 4 kg/lb, corresponding to 2/3 of the weigh-
ing capacity of 6kg/lb). Confirm that the weight has been placed
on the pan with the ON/OFFkey. While the weight is being measur-
ed, a counter is again displayed which counts backwards from 5
to 1.
• The scale now prompts you to load the weighing pan with the
adjustment weight which correspondstotheselectedcapacity (in
this example 6kg/lb). Confirm that you have placed the weight on
the pan by pressing the ON/OFF key. While the weight is being
measured, a counter is again displayed which counts backwards
from 5 to 1.
•The adjustment is complete. Press the ON/OFF key to save the
result and quit service mode. If you do not want to save the result,
press TAREand confirm the “Abort” message with the ON/OFF key.
7 Tableof geoadjustment values
After a major change of geographical location, the geo adjustment
value must be changed according to the following table, and the scale
must then be readjusted accordingly (Chapters 4.2 and 4.3).

4.4 Monitoring the test substances
The metrology features of the balance and any possible available adjusting weight must be
checked at regular intervals within the scope of quality assurance. For this purpose, the
answerable user must define a suitable interval as well as the nature and scope of this check.
Information is available on KERN’s home page (www.kern-sohn.com) with regard to the
monitoring of balance test substances and the test weights required for this. Test weights and
balances can be adjusted quickly and at a reasonable price in KERN’s accredited DKD calibration
laboratory (return to national normal).
4.5 Verification
General:
According to the EU guideline 90/384/EEC balances must be verified officially if they are to be used
as follows (legally regulated area):
a) For commercial transactions if the price of goods is determined by weighing
b) For the production of medines in pharmacies as well as for analyses in the medical
and pharmaceutical laboratory
c) For official purposes
d) For the production of finished packages
In case of doubt, please contact your local office of weights and measures.
Verification information: (see chapter 9.3 Declaration of conformity)
An EU qualification approval is available for those balances marked as appropriate for verification
in the technical data. In the event that the balance is applied in an area subject to verification as
described above, it must be officially verified and re-verified at regular intervals.
Re-verification of a balance is carried out in compliance with the respective legal provisions of the
states. The term of verification validity for balances in Germany, for example, is normally 2 years.
The legal provisions of the country of use are to be observed.

5 Error messages
Display Cause and remedy
E11, E16, E18 Internal error (RAM/ROM/EEPROM). Contact dealer.
E48 Error in the scale configuration. Check all parameters in service mode.
ERROR Software error. Restart the scale with the ON/OFF key. If the error still occurs,
replace the storage battery (Chapter 8).
------ The weight value is unstable or zero setting is not possible. Check the environ-
mental conditions (drafts, vibrations, etc.). If necessary, change the filter set-
tings in the menu (menu block “S4”, see Chapter 4). Under certain conditions
there could also be a difference of air pressure between the scale housing and
the surroundings. Unscrew the rear leveling screws until the ventilation openings
under them are free. If water drains out, contact you dealer.
nnnnnn Overload (load exceeds weighing capacity by more than 9 display steps). Re-
move the load and set the display to zero with the a key. Readjust (cali-
brate) the scale if necessary.
WWWWWW When zero was set there was a weight on the scale. When the load is removed
this error message appears. Ensure that there is no weight on the pan and then
press the a key. If the error message occurs again, the scale must be ad-
justed (calibrated).
Note: If the setting “S11” = “Off” was selected in the menu (Chapter 4.2), when
zero-setting is done with a weight on the balance and the weight is then re-
moved, the negative weight value is displayed instead of this error message.
6 Cleaning the scale
•Disconnect the scale from the power supply before starting to clean!
• Use a soft cloth (no acids, alkalis, or strong solvents).
• Do not use abrasive cleaning agents: they can scratch the display.
• If badly soiled, remove the weighing pan and leveling screws, and clean them separately.
• Observe company-internal and industry-specific regulations regarding cleaning intervals and permitted
cleaning agents.
