3 Fundamental information (general)
3.1 Designated use
The balance you have acquired serves to determine the weighing value of the
material to be weighed. It is intended to be used as a “non-automatic“ balance, i.e.
the material to be weighed is manually and carefully placed in the centre of the
weighing plate. The weighing value can be read off after a stable weighing value has
been obtained.
3.2 Inappropriate use
Do not use balance for dynamic add-on weighings, if small amounts of goods to be
weighed are removed or added. The “stability compensation“ installed in the balance
may result in displaying an incorrect measuring value! (Example: Slowly draining
fluids from a container on the balance.)
Do not leave a permanent load on the weighing plate. This can damage the
measuring system.
Be sure to avoid impact shock and overloading the balance in excess of the
prescribed maximum load rating (max.), minus any possible tare weight that is
already present. This could cause damage to the balance.
Never operate the balance in hazardous locations. The series design is not
explosion-proof.
Structural alterations may not be made to the balance. This can lead to incorrect
weighing results, faults concerning safety regulations as well as to destruction of the
balance.
The balance may only be used in compliance with the described guidelines. Varying
areas of application/planned use must be approved by KERN in writing.
3.3 Guarantee
The guarantee is not valid in the following cases:
• non-observation of our guidelines in the operating instructions
• use outside the described applications
• alteration to or opening of the device
• mechanical damage and damage caused by media, liquids,
natural wear and tear
• inappropriate erection or electric installation
• overloading of the measuring equipment
ALT-BA-defsi-0410
75
3.4 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 Fundamental safety instructions
4.1 Observe notices in the operating manual
Please read the operating instructions carefully before erecting and commissioning,
even if you already have experience with KERN balances.
4.2 Training of personnel
The device may only be operated and looked after by trained members of staff.
5 Transport and storage
5.1 Acceptance check
Please check the packaging immediately upon delivery and the device during
unpacking for any visible signs of external damage.
5.2 Packing
Please retain all parts of the original packaging in case it should be necessary to
return items at any time.
Only the original packaging should be used for return consignments.
Before despatch, disconnect all attached cables and loose/movable parts.
Apply any intended transport security devices. Secure all parts e.g. weighing plate,
mains power supply etc. against slipping and damage.
ALT-BA-defsi-0410
76
6 Unpacking, installation and commissioning
6.1 Installation Site, Location of Use
The balance is constructed in such a way that reliable weighing results can be
achieved under normal application conditions.
By selecting the correct location for your balance, you will be able to work quickly and
precisely.
Therefore please observe the following at the place of installation:
• Place the balance on a firm, level surface;
• Avoid extreme heat as well as temperature fluctuation caused by installing
next to a radiator or in the direct sunlight;
• Protect the balance against direct draughts due to open windows and doors;
• Avoid jarring during weighing;
• Protect the balance against high humidity, vapours and dust;
• Do not expose the device to extreme dampness for longer periods of time.
Inadmissible bedewing (condensation of air moisture on the device) can occur
if a cold device is taken into a significantly warmer environment. In this case,
please acclimatise the device for approx. 2 hours at room temperature after it
has been disconnected from the mains.
• Avoid static charging of items to be weighed, or weighing container.
Major display deviations (incorrect weighing results) are possible if electromagnetic
fields occur as well as due to static charging, currents and instable power supply. It is
then necessary to change the location.
6.2 Unpack
Carefully remove the balance from its packaging, remove the plastic wrapping and
position the balance in its intended working location.
ALT-BA-defsi-0410

• Instruction manual
• Wind protection
(1) Base plate
(2) Screen ring
(3) Weighing plate
ALT-BA-defsi-0410
78
6.3 Mains supply
Electric power supply is by means of the external mains supply circuit. The printed
voltage level must comply with the local voltage.
Only use original KERN mains supply circuits. The use of other makes is subject to
approval by Kern.
1. Mains supply
2. PS/2 keyboard
3. RS232 interface
6.4 Connection of peripheral equipment
The balance must be disconnected from the mains before connecting or
disconnecting additional equipment (printer, PC) to or from the data interface.
Only use KERN accessories and peripheral equipment with your balance. These
have been ideally coordinated to your balance.
6.5 Initial Commissioning
A warm-up time of 1 hour stabilises the measured values after switching on.
The accuracy of the balance depends on the local acceleration of the fall.
Instructions in chapter Adjustment must be observed.

7.3.1 P1 Calibration (Adjustment)
As the acceleration value due to gravity is not the same at every location on earth,
each balance must be coordinated - in compliance with the underlying physical
weighing principle - to the existing acceleration due to gravity at its place of location (
only if the balance has not already been adjusted to the location in the factory). This
adjustment process must be carried out for the first commissioning, after each
change of location as well as in case of fluctuating environment temperature. It is
also recommendable to adjust the balance periodically during weighing operation in
order to obtain exact measured values.
Using the inbuilt adjusting weight the balance automatically carries out an adjustment
after any temperature change of 0.8 °C or any time it was disconnected from the
power supply.
Of course it is also possible to check the accuracy of the balance manually any time.
You can choose between two options:
1. Adjustment is started by pressing the -key three times.
After successful adjustment the balance automatically returns to weighing
mode.
2. Under menu item “P1 01 Calibration with internal weight” (see table below)
Procedure for adjustment:
Observe stable environment conditions. A warming-up time of ca. 1 hour for
stabilisation is necessary.
Important!
During the adjustment process no objects should be on the weighing plate.

7.3.1.2 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 medicines 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
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 reverified 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.
After verification the balance is sealed at the marked positions.
Verification of the balance is invalid without the seal.
Position of the seal:
Balances with obligatory verification must be taken out of service if:
- The weighing result of the balance is outside the maximum limits of
operating errors. Therefore load balance is regular intervals with known test
weight (ca. 1/3 of the max. load) and compare with displayed value.
- The date for subsequent or periodical verification has passed.
Seal

7.3.2 P2 GLP (Good laboratory practice)
Quality assurance systems require printouts of weighing results as well as of correct
adjustment of the balance stating date and time and balance identification. The
easiest way is to have a printer connected.

8.1.1.2 Under floor weighing
Using under floor weighing allows weighing of objects that because of their size of
shape cannot be placed on the pan scale.
Proceed as follows:
• Turn off balance.
• Open the closing lid at the bottom of the balance.
• Carefully and completely hook in the hook for under floor weighing.
• Place balance over an opening.
• Suspend the item to be weighed from the hook and carry out weighing.
Fig. 1: Setting up balance for under floor weighing
CAUTION
• Ensure that all suspended objects are stable enough to hold the desired items
to be weighed securely (danger of breaking).
• Never suspend loads that exceed the stated maximum load (Max)
(danger of breaking)
Always ensure that underneath the load there are no living beings or objects that
might be damaged.
NOTE
When the under floor weighing the opening in the bottom of the balance must be
closed (protection against dust).

8.1.2 Parts counting
Before the balance can count parts, it must know the average part weight (i.e.
reference). This is either entered manually or determined by weighing. Proceed by
putting on a certain number of the parts to be counted. The balance determines the
total weight and divides it by the number of parts (the so-called reference quantity).
Counting is then carried out on the basis of the calculated average piece weight.
As a rule:
The higher the reference quantity the higher the counting accuracy.

11 Troubleshooting
The balance should be switched off for a short time following an interruption in the
programme sequence and disconnected from the mains supply. It is then necessary
to repeat the weighing process from the beginning.
Help:
Malfunction Possible cause
Weight display is not
illuminated.
• The balance is not switched on.
• The mains supply connection has been interrupted
(mains cable not plugged in/faulty).
• Power supply interrupted.
• Batteries are inserted incorrectly or empty
• There are no batteries inserted.
The weight display changes
continually
• Draught/air movement
• Table/floor vibrations
• Weighing plate has contact with other objects.
• Electromagnetic fields / static charging (choose
different location/switch off interfering device if
possible)
The weighing result is
obviously wrong
• The display of the balance is not at zero
• Adjustment is no longer correct.
• Great fluctuations in temperature.
• Electromagnetic fields / static charging (choose
different location/switch off interfering device if
possible)
Switch the balance off if other error messages should appear and then switch on
again. If error message persists, inform manufacturer.
