The HR-AZ series balance is equipped with an internal mass for one-touch calibration. Casing construction, strong protection against dust and moisture.
Multiple weighing units with most of the common units used around the world.
Standard RS-232C serial interface to communicate with a computer and to output the Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) / Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) compliant report.
Since the HR-AZ series balance has a built-in clock function, the measured value can be output to a printer with the date and time. (Changing the clock setting can be limited to the administrator only. Refer to "15. Password Function")
You can restrict the balance users or the changes to the balance settings by the password function.
The key lock function disables the balance key operation and enables the balance to be operated only by commands from external device.
Statistical calculation mode to statistically calculate the weight data, and display or output the sum, maximum, minimum, range (maximum-minimum), average, standard deviation and coefficient of variation.
Comparator Indicators, displaying the comparison results.
Hold Function, provided for weighing a moving object such as an animal. Breeze break, provided for better stability if drafts are present. Underhook, provided for suspended weighing.
As options, the USB interface (FXi-02), the Ethernet interface (FXi-08) and the built-in battery unit (FXi-09) are available.
Connecting the USB interface, by cable to a Windows computer, allows transmission of the weight data to Excel or Word. The Ethernet interface allows connection of the balance to a personal computer through a LAN. The battery unit allows use of the balance where a power source is not available.
The AD-8920A remote display, that is sold separately, allows reading the weight value in a place away from the balance.

Notes
Confirm that the AC adapter type is correct for your local voltage and receptacle type.
Do not use the AC adapter provided with the balance for other models or equipment with which the AC adapter may not be compatible.
If you use the wrong AC adapter, the balance and other equipment may not operate properly.
2-2. Installing the Balance
Install the balance as follows:
1.Place the balance on a solid weighing table. Refer to "3. Precautions" for installing the balance.
2.Assemble the pan support, weighing pan, breeze break ring and breeze break, on the balance as shown in the illustration on page 7.
3.Adjust the leveling feet to level the balance. Confirm it using the bubble spirit level.
4.Confirm that the AC adapter type is correct for the local voltage and power receptacle type.
5.Connect the AC adapter to the balance. Warm up the balance for at least one hour with nothing on the weighing pan.
Note
The AC adapter plug is protected against dust and may be difficult to insert. When inserting the plug, turn the plug while pushing on it.

3.Precautions
To get the optimum performance from the balance and acquire accurate weight data, note the following:
3-1. Before Use
Install the balance in an environment where the temperature and humidity are not excessive. The best operating temperature is about 20°C / 68°F at about 50% relative humidity.
Install the balance where it is not exposed to direct sunlight and it is not affected by heaters or air conditioners.
Install the balance where it is free of dust.
Install the balance away from equipment which produces magnetic fields.
Install the balance in a stable place avoiding vibration and shock. Corners of rooms on the first floor are best, as they are less prone to vibration.
The weighing table should be solid and free from vibration, drafts and as level as possible. Level the balance by adjusting the leveling feet and confirm it using the bubble spirit level.

counterclockwise direction at the same time. |
Ensure a stable power source when using the AC adapter.
Plug in the AC adapter and warm up the balance for at least one hour.
Calibrate the balance before use or after having moved it to another location. Refer to "8. Calibration (SensitivityAdjustment/Sensitivity Check)".
Caution: Do not install the balance where flammable or corrosive gas is present.
9
3-2. During Use
Discharge static electricity from the material to be weighed (hereinafter referred to as the sample). When a sample could have a static charge, the weight data is influenced. Ground the balance and try the following:
Eliminate static electricity using the optional AD-1683 DC static eliminator.
Try to keep the ambient humidity above 45%RH.
Use a metal shield case for a charged sample.
Wipe charged plastic samples with a moistened cloth.
This balance uses a strong magnet as part of the balance assembly, so please use caution when weighing magnetic materials such as iron. If there is a problem, use the underhook on the bottom of the balance to suspend the material away from the influence of the magnet.
Eliminate the temperature difference between a sample and the environment. When a sample is warmer (cooler) than the ambient temperature, the sample will be lighter (heavier) than the true weight. This error is due to a rising (falling) draft around the sample.
Charged material
Material case
Grounding 
Magnetic material
Make each weighing gently and quickly to avoid errors caused by the evaporation of moisture from the sample or the absorption of moisture by the sample.
Do not drop things upon the weighing pan, or place a sample on the pan that is beyond the balance weighing capacity. Place a sample in the center of the weighing pan.
Do not use a sharp instrument such as a pencil to press the keys. Use your finger only. Press the RE-ZERO key before each weighing to eliminate possible errors.
Calibrate the balance periodically so as to eliminate possible errors.
Take into consideration the affect of air buoyancy on a sample when more accuracy is required. Keep the balance interior free of dust and foreign materials.
The breeze break (The HR-AZ / HR-A series) is provided as a standard accessory. An anti-static treatment has been applied to the breeze break components, but they may be charged with static electricity when they are unpacked or when the humidity is low. If the weight value is unstable even when there are no drafts or the balance has a problem with repeatability, remove the breeze break. Or wipe the clear plates with a moistened cloth, use the optional AD-1683 DC static eliminator or apply an anti-static spray.
10
3-3. After Use
Avoid mechanical shock to the balance.
Do not disassemble the balance. Contact the local A&D dealer if the balance needs service or repair.
Do not use organic solvents to clean the balance. Clean the balance with a lint free cloth that is moistened with warm water and a mild detergent.
The edge of the weighing pan is sharp. Use much care when cleaning the pan.
Avoid dust and water so that the balance weighs correctly. Protect the internal parts from liquid spills and excessive dust.
The breeze break parts have an antistatic coating. Washing these parts with water, etc., will diminish the antistatic coating function.
3-4. Power Supply
When the AC adapter is connected, the balance is in the standby mode if the standby indicator is on (refer to "4. Display Symbols and Key Operations"). This is a normal state and does not harm the balance. For accurate weighing, allow the balance to reach equilibrium with room temperature, and then warm up the balance for at least one hour before use.

Zero Operation, Tare Operation and Weighing Range
When weighing is started
The balance will determine the reference zero point when the 
key is pressed to enter the weighing mode.
Depending on the load condition at that time, the balance will automatically judge whether to perform zero or tare operation. The condition for determining which is used is "Power-on zero range", and when power on zero range is exceeded, the tare operation is performed.
Re-zero operation
By pressing the RE-ZERO key, the display can be set to zero.
The re-zero operation with the RE-ZERO key will automatically judge whether to perform zero or
tare operation. The condition for determining which is used is "Zero range", and when zero range is exceeded, the tare operation is performed.
Weighing range
The range that the balance can weigh varies depending on the model.
When the total amount (net weight + tare weight) displayed for each model exceeds the maximum display, E is displayed to indicate that the weighing range is exceeded.
When exceeded in the negative direction, |
-E |
is displayed. |

6-3. Counting Mode (PCS)
This is the mode to determine the number of objects in a sample based on the standard sample unit mass. The unit mass means the mass of one piece of the sample. The smaller the variables in each sample unit mass are, the more accurate the counting will be. The balance is equipped with the Automatic Counting Accuracy Improvement (ACAI) function to improve the counting accuracy.
Notes
For counting, use samples with a unit mass of at least ten or more times the minimum weighing value of the balance.
If the sample unit mass variable is too large, it may cause a counting error.
To improve the counting performance, use the ACAI function frequently or divide the samples into several groups and count each group.
Selecting the Counting Mode
1 Press the MODE key to select |
(counting mode). |

2 Press the SAMPLE key to enter the sample unit mass storing mode.
Even in the storing mode, pressing the MODE key will switch to the next mode.

|
|
Notes
If the balance judges that the mass of the samples is too light and is not adequate to be used as the unit mass, it displays lo . In that case, store the mass by some quantity.
For example, when the model with the minimum weighing value of 0.0001 g is used and 10 pieces of samples weigh 0.0005 g. Store 100 pieces of samples as 10 and multiply the weighing result by 10.
If the balance judges that the mass of the samples is too light to aquire accurate weighing, it displays an error requiring the addition of more samples to the specified number. For example,
50- |
appears to require 25 more samples. Add 25 samples and press the PRINT key. |
When the unit mass is stored correctly, the balance proceeds to the counting mode.
19
For a more accurate counting operation, use samples with a unit mass of at least ten or more times the minimum weighing value of the balance. For example, when a balance with a mimimum weighing value of 0.0001 g is used, the recommended sample unit mass is 0.001 g or more.
The sample unit mass stored, even if the AC adapter is removed, is maintained in non-volatile memory.
Counting Operation
7 Place the samples to be counted on the pan. |
|
|
While the stabilization indicator is on, pressing the |
|
key will |
output the weight value (number of objects), using |
the RS- |
232C |
serial interface. |

|
Note |
|
|
Peripheral equipment, that is sold separately , such as a |
||
printer or a personal computer is required. |
|
|
Counting Mode Using the ACAI Function |
Processing indicator |
|
The ACAI is a function that improves the accuracy of the unit mass automatically by increasing the number of samples and averaging the unit mass variable to minimize the weighing error, as the counting process proceeds.
8If a few more samples are added, the processing indicator turns on. To prevent an error, add three or more. The processing indicator does not turn on if overloaded. Try to add the same number of samples as displayed.
9The balance re-calculates the unit mass while the processing indicator is blinking. Do not touch the balance or samples on the pan until the processing indicator turns off.
10Counting accuracy is improved when the processing indicator turns off.
Each time the above operation is performed, a more accurate unit mass will be obtained. There is no definite upper limit of ACAI range for the number of samples exceeding 100. Try to add the same number of samples as displayed.
11Remove all the samples used in ACAI and proceed with the counting operation using the improved unit mass.

6-5. Statistical Calculation Mode
The statistical calculation mode statistically calculates the weight data, and displays or outputs the results. To use the statistical calculation mode, set the "Application function (apf)" parameter of "Application (ap fnc)" in the function table to "2", as described below.
Statistical items available are number of data, sum, maximum, minimum, range (maximum-minimum), average, standard deviation, coefficient of variation and relative error. What statistical items to output can be selected from the four modes in the function table.
The wrong data input can be canceled by the key operation, if immediately after the input. Turning the balance off will delete the statistical data.
The standard deviation, coefficient of variation and relative error are obtained by the equation below:
Standard deviation = |
NΣ(Xi)2 - (ΣXi)2 |

8.Calibration (Sensitivity Adjustment/Sensitivity Check)
8-1. Calibration Mode
Since the balance's resolution is high, weighing values may change due to gravity and daily environmental changes. It is necessary to perform calibration (sensitivity adjustment) with the weight in order to keep the weighing values from changing even if gravity or the environment changes. Calibrate the balance if it is installed for the first time or relocated, or when the weighing values change significantly in daily inspection.
Calibration means to adjust the weighing value of the balance using the reference weight or internal mass. Calibration test means to weigh with the reference weight and compare how much the result deviates from the reference value. (Calibration test does not perform adjustment.)
Calibration (Sensitivity Adjustment)
Calibration using the internal mass ·············Using the internal mass, adjust the balance with a single touch. (Only for the HR-AZ series)
Calibration using an external weight············Using an external weight, adjust the balance.
Calibration Test (Sensitivity Check)
Calibration test using the internal mass············Checks the accuracy of weighing using the internal mass and outputs the result. (Only for the HR-AZ series)
* No adjustment is made.
Calibration test using an external weight ··········Checks the accuracy of weighing using an external weight (target weight) and outputs the result.
* No adjustment is made.
Cautions
When calibrating, be sure to install the provided large breeze break.
Do not allow vibration, drafts, or temperature change to affect the balance during calibration. Besides periodic calibration and before each use, perform calibration when:
The balance is installed for the first time.
The balance has been moved.
The ambient environment has changed.
Do not allow vibration or drafts to affect the balance during calibration.
To output the GLP/GMP compliant report using the RS-232C serial interface, set "GLP output ( info )" of "Data output ( dout )". For details, refer to "10. Function Table". To display the GLP output, a printer or personal computer is required.
Calibration test is available only when "GLP output ( info )" of "Data output ( dout )" is set to "1", "2" or "3".
Caution on Using an External Weight
The accuracy of an external weight will influence the accuracy of weighing. Select an appropriate weight as listed below:

Display
This indicator means "the balance is measuring data". Do not allow vibration or drafts to affect the balance while this indicator is displayed.
8-2. Calibration Using the Internal Mass (One-TouchCalibration,OnlyfortheHR-AZSeries)
This function calibrates the balance using the internal mass. The only operation required is to press the CAL key.
Notes
Level the balance by adjusting the leveling feet and confirm that the bubble is in the center of the spirit level.
Poor level adjustment may cause a calibration error while using the internal mass.
Operation
1Connect the AC adapter and warm up the balance for at least one hour with nothing on the weighing pan.
2 Place the provided large breeze break on the balance and press the CAL key.
3The balance displays Calin and performs calibration using the internal mass. Do not allow vibration or drafts to affect the balance.
4 The balance displays end after calibration. If the "GLP output (info)" parameter of the function table is set to "1" or "2", the balance displays glp and outputs "Calibration Report" using the RS-232C interface or stores the data in memory. For details on the calibration report format, refer to "11-2. GLP Report".
5 The balance will automatically return to the weighing mode after calibration.
About the Internal Mass
The mass of the internal mass may change due to corrosion or other damage caused by the operating environment, or due to aging. Check the internal mass periodically. Correct the internal mass value as necessary. For details, refer to "8-4. Correcting the Internal Mass Value 1 (Only for the HR-AZ Series)" and "8-5. Correcting the Internal Mass Value 2 (Only for the HR-AZ Series)".
To maintain the weighing accuracy, perform the internal mass value correction periodically.
