Generals Information
Important Information
Any persons servicing or working on high-resolution Sartorius Competence
balances/scales should have successfully completed a service course at the
Sartorius headquarters in Goettingen. Do not perform any unauthorized repair
work!

Service Concept for TE- Balances/Scales
Valid until further notice
- All calibration/adjustment work required for starting up operations and tests
must be carried out in accordance with the operation instructions.
- Quality defects.
o Immediately report all quality defects that may occur to the Quality
Assurance Department (WQM).
- Defective balances/scales
o Warranty.
• Within the first 6 months of installation, any defective balance/scale
covered by the warranty should be exchanged.
o Seal of warranty.
• If you have to remove the Seal of Warranty, please affix your
Company control seal to the unit!
o In other cases, proceed according to the OAW135 (standard operating
procedure for returns for repairs).
• Defective weighing systems.
Proceed as described in the Service Concept for Weighing Cells, refer
to (Service Information Document 6.2001 / OAW135-2/3).
• Defective electronics.
These balances/scales along with an error record should be sent back
to the Central Mechanics Workshop (ZW) in Goettingen (OAW135-2).
• Other service situations can be dealt with on site, for example:
Broken draft shields; weighing pan can no longer be used;replacing
small parts, ... etc

General Notes
Service Guide
1. Check the repeatability
Balance/Scale with strain gauge system (standard deviation, see page 34)
Balance/Scale with double lever system (standard deviation, see page 39)
2. Check the off-center loading error and adjust as required
Balance/Scale with strain gauge system (see page 35)
Balance/Scale with double lever system (see page 40/41)
3. Adjust the sensitivity with external calibration weight
Balance/Scale with strain gauge system (see page 36)
Balance/Scale with double lever system (see page 46)
4. Adjust the linearity is preferably performed using the sequential method,
or with calibrated weights,
Balance/Scale with strain gauge system (see page 37)
Balance/Scale with double lever system (see page 47)
Activating the BPI Mode/ Perform only before working with the Sartorius Service Software;
Deactivating write-protect for calibration/adjustment. Linearization and programming a data record when
exchanging the main PCB.

7
Reset write-protect After working with the Sartorius Service Software, always make sure to
conclude with the „Close“ function (returning the balance from BPI back to SBI
mode), otherwise write-protect is not set, and the balance/scale remains in the
BPI mode (see Page 25). If all else fails, reset the SBI mode by selecting menu
reset (9-1°).
Exchanging the Main PCB When ordering replacement PCBs, always state the model and the serial
number, based on this information a preprogrammed new PCB set can be
delivered.
Weighing systems - Double lever system, Strain gauge system
Opening the housing - Unscrew the 2 (sealed) screws on the reverse side and slide the upper half
of the housing back.
- After closing the balance/scale, the service technician or service
organization must reaffix another control seal!
Service software – Must be used for adjusting weighing instruments when tolerance levels are
exceeded by ± 2% (span, linearity, offset, zeropoint).
Do not use out-dated software versions.
Adjusting the off-center load – Strain-gauge weighing systems and model TE3102 devices are adjusted by
filing the thin parts. Model TE214S and TE313S devices are adjusted using
the off-center value adjustment screws.
Span adjustment – Can be performed using external calibrated (i.e., certified) weights.

8
BPI switch – (BPI = Binary Prozessor Interface) to prepare for working with Sartorius
service software, log out with „CLOSE“ function (to reset for SBI functions).
– Or if all else fails by resetting the operating menu (9-1°)
Be careful, the factory settings are activated.
“ ERR 30 is also shown after pressing the rkey, if the wrong interface
cable is used!
