1.6. Supervision Over Metrological Parameters
Metrological parameters need to be checked in determined time intervals. Inspection
frequency depends on ambient conditions in which the weighing instrument is operated, kind
of carried out processes and adopted quality management system.
1.7. User Manual Significance
Even if you are experienced and have already worked with this type of weighing instrument,
you are still obliged to read this user manual carefully prior switching the device on. This
user manual contains crucial information for correct operation of the module. As long as you
follow the guidelines your balance operation is correct and reliable.
1.8. Operator Training
The weighing device must be utilized and supervised only by personnel who have been
trained to use such type of a weighing device.

2. TRANSPORT AND STORAGE
2.1. Delivery Check
Upon delivery it is necessary to check the package and the device, make sure that your
package bears no signs of damage. Otherwise contact the manufacturer's representative.
2.2. Packaging
Keep all package elements should your device be transported in the future. Remember that
only original packaging can be used for shipping purposes. Prior packing, uncouple any
cables, remove any separable components (weighing pan, shields, inserts). The device
components shall be packed into an original packaging, thus being protected against
potential damage during transportation.
3. UNPACKING AND INSTALLATION
3.1. Place of Use
•Operate the device in a workroom free of vibrations and shakes, where there are no
air drafts nor dust.
•Make sure that the ambient temperature ranges between: +10 °C ÷ +40 °C,
•Make sure that the relative humidity is not higher than 80%,
•Make sure that the temperature changes slowly in the course of operation.
•Place the weighing instrument either on a robust-design table or on a wall bracket,
which is both distant from heat sources and insusceptible to vibrations.

- 10 -
3.2. Unpacking
Cut the adhesive tape. Take the device components and the wooden box with the
device out of the packaging. Unscrew 3 screws fixing the device to the box and take
them out. Screw 2 feet and base bracket into device's base.

- 11 -
3.3. Standard Delivery Components List
•Balance
•Device feet
•Base support
•Mass standard support
•Mass standard support plate
•Draft shield
•Magnet
•Magnet support
•Weighing pan
•Anti-draft chamber glass lid
•Power supply
•User manual - CD version
3.4. Workroom and Basic Operation Guidelines
Put the weighing instrument in the place of use, on stable base, and install the weighing pan.
Follow the below procedure.
Steps:
1. Place the balance (1) at its workstation.
2. Install the draft shield (2).
3. Install the magnet support (4).
4. Place the magnet (5) in the support’s socket.
5. Install the anti-draft chamber glass lid (6).
6. Install the mass standard support (7) on the devices base by assembling bracket pin
into corresponding base sockets.
7. Install the mass standard support plate (8) by assembling support’s pins into
corresponding plate sockets depending on tested mass standard (see description in
section 17).
If the device is to be used to weight mass standards and other samples, dismantle mass
standard support plate (8), mass standard support (7), magnet (5) and magnet support (4).
Next, install weighing pan (3) in the weighing chamber in the place where magnet support
was previously installed.
Such prepared susceptometer can work as a balance.

3.5. Connecting the Device to the Mains
The weighing device can be connected to the mains only with a power supply that comes
standard with a particular model. Nominal voltage of the power supply (specified on the
power supply data plate) has to be compatible with the mains nominal voltage.
Plug the balance to the mains – connect the power adapter to the socket, next connect its
connector to interface located at the back of the balance housing.
3.6. Temperature Stabilization Time
Prior to measuring processes start, it is necessary to wait until the platform reaches thermal
stabilisation.
Balances stored in much lower temperatures, than the workroom temperature, before being
plugged to the mains (e.g. during winter period) must be subjected to thermal stabilisation.
The thermal stabilisation period takes about 12 hours. During the thermal stabilization, the
indications on the screen may change. Potential workroom temperature change shall occur
gradually and slowly in the course of the weighing instrument operation.
3.7. Connecting Peripheral Equipment
Use only accessories and peripheral equipment recommended by the manufacturer. The
balance must be disconnected from the mains before connecting or disconnecting any
peripherals (printer, PC computer, computer keyboard of USB type, additional display). Upon
connecting the peripherals, plug the module to the mains.

4. MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
Cleaning the weighing pan or the magnet support while still installed may cause damage of
the measuring system.
1. Uninstall the weighing pan and other detachable components depending on balance type
(refer to section: UNPACKING AND INSTALLATION). Be careful while detaching the
components so as not to cause any damages to the mechanism. Remove the weighing
pan of a microbalance using tweezers.
2. Using handheld vacuum cleaner remove dust from the weighing chamber (recommended
for microbalances).
Cleaning anti-draft chamber panes:
Select dissolvent depending on a dirt. Never soak the glass panes in alkaline solutions since
they interact with glass and may cause damage. Do not use products containing abrasive
substances.
For organic dirt use acetone first, next use water or detergent. For other than organic dirt use
diluted acid solutions (soluble salts of hydrochloric or nitric acid) or base solutions
(ammonium or sodium base).
To remove ACIDS use protophilic solvent (sodium carbonate), to remove BASE use
protogenic solvent (mineral acid of various concentration).
In case of heavy contamination use brush or detergent nevertheless avoid detergents
containing large and hard molecules which could potentially scratch glass panes.
At the end of the cleaning process rinse the pane using running water first, distilled next.
Use soft brush with wooden or plastic handle exclusively in order to avoid risk of scratches.
Do not use wire brush.
Rinsing is a necessary cleaning process stage allowing to remove remaining soap,
detergents and other cleansers from the panes prior their reinstallation.
At the end of the cleaning process rinse the pane using running water first, distilled next.
Avoid drying the panes either using paper towel or forced air circulation since some fibres,
grains or contamination of other type could permeate into the panes thus causing weighing
errors.
One shall not use driers when drying measuring glass tools.
It is a frequent treatment to leave glass components on a rack to dry.
Cleaning powder-coated components:
For preliminary cleaning stage you need running water or wet sponge featuring large holes,
this will help you to remove loose, heavy dirt.

- 15 -
Do not use products containing abrasive substances.
Next, using cloth and cleanser-water solution (soap, dishwashing liquid) gently rub the
cleaned surface.
Avoid using cleanser without water since it may result with damage of the cleaned surface,
please mind that large amount of water mixed with cleanser is a must.
Cleaning aluminium components:
While cleaning aluminium components use products acid by nature, e.g. spirit vinegar,
lemon. Do not use products containing abrasive substances. Avoid using hard brush, this
may cause scratches. It is recommended to use microfiber cloth.
While polishing the surface use circular movements. Use clean, dry cloth.
Cleaning stainless steel components:
Avoid using cleansers containing any corrosive chemicals, e.g. bleach (including chlorine).
Do not use products containing abrasive substances. Always remove the dirt using
microfibre cloth to avoid damage of protective coating.
In case of a daily maintenance:
1. Remove the dirt using cloth dipped in warm water.
2. For best results, add a little dishwashing detergent.
Cleaning ABS components:
To clean dry surfaces and avoid smudging, use clean non-colouring cloths made of cellulose
or cotton. You can use a solution of water and detergent (soap, dishwashing detergent, glass
cleaner). Gently rub the cleaned surface and let it dry. Repeat the cleaning process if
needed.
In case of hard to remove contamination, e.g.: residues of adhesive, rubber, resin,
polyurethane foam etc., you can use a special cleaning agents based on a mixture of
aliphatic hydrocarbons that do not dissolve plastics. Before using the cleanser for all
surfaces we recommend carrying out tests. Do not use cleansers containing abrasive
substances.
