GENERAL INFORMATION

I NT ENDED USE

The PBL-Series precision balance enables fast and accurate mass measurements under laboratory conditions.
The weighing pan, made of stainless steel and equipped with anti-draft shield, is an integral part of the PBL-series balance. Backlit LCD display ensures clear measurement result. The PBL-Series balance is equipped with an internal battery (comes standard), so it does not have to be connected to the mains.
The PBL-series balance is equipped with the following interfaces: RS 232, USB type A, USB type B. The interfaces enable cooperation between the balance and peripheral devices (e.g. printer, computer, flash drive).

PRECAUTIONS

Prior to first use, it is highly recommended to carefully read this User Manual, and operate the balance as intended.
Do not use the balance for a dynamic weighing. Even if small quantities of weighed material are added or removed from the weighing pan of the instrument, the reading should be taken only after stabilization of the measurement results.
While loading the balance make sure that load is placed in the very center of the weighing pan.
Make sure the load does not exceed instrument’s measuring range (maximum capacity).
Do not leave heavy loads on the weighing pan for a long period of time.
In case of failure, immediately unplug the instrument.
Balances to be decommissioned, should be decommissioned in accordance with valid
legal regulations.
Do not use the balance is areas endangered with explosion. The balance is not designed to operate in EX zones.

BATTERY

The PBL-Series balance is supplied by NiMH-type battery (nickel-metal- hydrogen) of 1800­2800mAh capacity.
In case of prolonged storage of the balance in low temperature, the battery must be charged.
A worn-out battery can be replaced only by the manufacturer or by the authorized service.
The equipment including accumulators does not belong to regular household waste. The European legislation requires electric and electronic equipment to be collected and disposed separately from other communal waste with the aim of being recy cled.
Notice:
Symbols on accumulators identify harmful compounds: Pb = lead, Cd = cadmium, Hg = mercury.

WARRANTY CONDITIONS

1
Cole-Parmer will exchange, replace or repair the existing balance for any damage that appears to be faulty by production or by construction within the 5-year warranty period.
Warranty is voided if:
A. Cole Parmer will exchange, replace or repair the existing balance for any damage that
appears to be faulty by production or by construct ion within the 5-year warranty period.
B. Warranty is voided if:
mechanical defects caused by inappropriate use:
defects of thermal and chemical origin,
defects caused by lightning, overvoltage in the power network
defects caused by water damage
or other random event
overloading the mechanical measuring system
installing another version of the operating system
utilizing the balance contrary to its intended use
repairs carried out by non-authorized service centers
removing or destroying protective stickers which secure the balance’s housing against
unauthorized access
C. Warranty card must be filled out for warranty to be valid.

UNPACKING AND INSTALLATION

PLACE OF USE AND ASSEMBLING

The balance should be stored and used in locations free of vibrations and shakes, free of air movement and dust.
Ambient air temperature should not exceed the range of: +15 °C to +30 °C.
Ambient relative humidity should not exceed 80%.
During balance operation, ambient temperature in the weighing room should not change
rapidly.
The balance should be located on a stable wall console desk or a stable working table which is not affected by vibrations and distant from heat sources.
Keep all package element should your device be transported in the future. Remember that only original packaging can be used for shipping purposes. Prior to packing, uncouple any cables, remove any separable components (weighing pan, shields, inserts). Pack the device components into an original packaging. The original packaging protects the equipment against potential damage during transportation.

BALANCE LEVELING

It is necessary to level the balance prior to plugging it in. To level the balance, turn its feet until the air bubble is in the center position.
The balance should firmly rest on a surface, each of the feet must be supported.

POWERING THE DEVICE

Before plugging in your balance, it is imperative to wait until the balance reaches thermal stabilization
4
(estimated 1-8 hours). On switching on, the balance requires 30 minutes of temperature stabilization time. During temperature stabilization displayed information may change. Adjustment should be carried out after temperature stabilization.
For correct operation of the balance the temperature range is +15˚C to +30˚C; Any changes of temperature and humidity during operation can cause indication errors. Errors can be corrected by carrying out user adjustment.
For balances that were stored in much lower temperatures (e.g. during winter period), thermal stabilization period may be extended.
Balance should be plugged in only with the power adapter that comes standard with the model. Nominal power supply of the power adapter (specified on the power adapter data plate) should be compatible to the power supply.
Plug the balance in – connect the power adapter to the socket, next connect its connector to port located at the back of the balance housing.
Press button on the key pad.
! Remember to start the balance with no load on the weighing pan
Test of the display unit takes place right after connecting the balance to the power,
all the elements and pictograms are backlit for a short time.
Next, the name and the program number appears
the indication gets to ZERO (displayed reading unit depends on the balance).
During the balance start, the test of an internal mass adjustment mechanism occurs (single location and elevation of the internal mass adjustment).
If the indication is different than zero, please press button

ADJUSTMENT

In order to ensure the highest weighing accuracy, it is recommended to periodically introduce a corrective factor of indications to balance memory, the said factor must be referred to a reference mass. It is a balance adjustment.
Adjustment has to be carried out:
Prior to weighing
If long breaks between following measuring series occur
If the ambient temperature has changed dynamically
If the balance's place of use has changed
Types of adjustment:
External adjustment <1.1.CA-E> carried out with external weight of declared mass which cannot be modified.
User adjustment <1.2.CA-u> carried out with any external weight of mass equal or greater than 30% of maximum capacity.

E XTERN AL ADJUSTMENT

External adjustment is carried out using external weight of class F1.

MAITENANCE

Disassembly of weighing pan and other detachable components (the components differ depending on a balance type – see: UNPACKING AND INSTALLATION sectio n ).
Caution:
Cleaning anti-draft chamber while still installed may cause damage to the measuring system.

13.2.1 CLEANING ABS COMPONETS

To clean dry surfaces and avoid smudging, use clean non-coloring cloths made of cellulose or cotton. You can use a solution of water and detergent (soap , dishwashing d etergent, glass cleaner). Gently rub the cleaned surface and let it dry. Repeat cleaning process if needed.
In the case when contamination is hard to remove, e.g. adhesive, rubber, resin, polyurethane foam residues 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 products containing abrasive substances.
35

13.2.2 CLEANING STAINLESS STEEL COMPONETS

Avoid using cleansers containing any corrosive chemicals, e.g. bleach (containing chlorine). Do not use products containing abrasive substances. Always remove the dirt using microfiber 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.
