4 Fundamental information (general)

4.1 Intended 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.

4.2 Inappropriate use

Do not use the balance for dynamic weighing. In the event that small quantities are removed or added to the material to be weighed, incorrect weighing results can be displayed due to the “stability compensation“ in the balance. (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 equipment. 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.

4.3 Guarantee

The guarantee is not valid following
- 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

4.4 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).

5 Fundamental safety information

5.1 Observe the information in the operating instructions

Please read the operating instructions carefully before erecting and commissioning, even if you already have experience with KERN balances.

5.2 Staff training

The device may only be operated and looked after by trained members of staff.

6 Transport and storage

6.1 Acceptance check

Please check the packaging immediately upon delivery and the device during un­packing for any visible signs of external damage.

6.2 Packaging

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.

7 Unpacking, installation and commissioning

7.1 Place of installation, place 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. In-
admissible 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 the material to be weighed, weighing container and
windshield.
Major display deviations (incorrect weighing results) are possible if electromagnetic fields occur as well as due to static charging and instable power supply. It is then ne­cessary to change the location.

7.2 Installation

Install the balance in such a fashion that the weighing plate is absolutely horizontal.

7.2.1 Unpacking the Balance

Carefully remove the balance from the packaging and out of the plastic covering, then place the balance on the assigned position.

7.2.3 Mounting instructions for using wall bracket

7.3 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.

7.4 Battery Operation

Remove the battery cover underneath the display. Connect 6 x 1,5V round cells. Re­insert the battery cover. Battery conservation through automatic power-off 3 minutes after ending a weighing operation. When the battery power is used up the display will show “LO“. Press the OFF key and change the batteries at once. When the balance is not in use for a longer period of time remove batteries and keep them separately. Leakage of battery liquid might damage the balance.

7.5 Initial start-up

A warm-up time of 5 minutes stabilises the measured values after switching on.
The accuracy of the balance depends on the local acceleration of the fall. Please be sure to observe the information in the chapter on adjusting.

7.6 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 during the initial start-up, after change in lo­cation and variation of surrounding temperature. It is also recommendable to adjust the balance periodically during weighing operation in order to obtain exact measured values

7.7 Adjusting

Balance accuracy can be checked and adjusted at any time using an adjusting weight.
Method of adjusting:
Observe stable ambience conditions. A short warming-up time of approx. 5 minutes for stabilisation purposes is useful.
Press UNIT key and hold depressed until the exact size of the adjusting weight flashes on the display panel, “Load” appears on the display panel alternately. Place the adjusting weight in the centre of the weighing plate. Press UNIT key. The value of the size of the adjusting weight will stabilise a short time later.
Keep the adjusting weight next to the balance. A daily balance accuracy check is recommended for applications relevant to quality.

8 Operation

8.1 Weighing

Switch the balance on by pressing the ON/ key. The balance will show “88888“ for approx. 3 seconds and then change to “0“. Now it
is ready for use.
Important: If the display does not show “0“ press the TARE key.
Only now (!) place object on the weighing pan. Make sure that the weighing object does not stripe or touch the housing or base.
Now the weight will be indicated. If the object should be heavier than the weighing range allowance, the symbol
Err(overload) will appear on the display.

8.2 Taring (TARE key)

Switch the balance on by pressing the ON key, then wait for the “0“ indication. Place the jiffy on the weighing pan and press the TARE key. Display again shows “0“.
Now the weight of the jiffy is memorised internally. By pressing the TARE key after a weighing procedure, “0“ will appear on the display
again. The taring procedure can be repeated continuously, for instance when mixing several
components. The limit is reached when the full weighing range is overlaid. After having removed the jiffy the total weight will appear as a minus indication.
EOB/EOE/EOB/EOS/BOBP-BA-e-0620
19

8.3 Hold function (Animal weighing function)

The balance has an integrated animal weighing function (mean value) with which it is possible to weigh small or domestic animals (minimum weight 1% of max.) precisely, even when they do not stand still on the weighing platform.
Remark: With to lively movement (strong diplay fluctuation) no mean value can take place.
Place the animal to be weighed on the weighing platform and press the HOLD key. A triangle will start to flash on the left hand side of the display, and during this time the balance will record several values, then calculate and display an mean value. By pressing the HOLD key again, the weighing machine will be reset to standard weighing mode. By pressing the HOLD key again, this function can be repeated as often as desired.

8.4 Plus / Minus Weighings

For instance to control piece-weights, filling process control etc. Switch the balance on by pressing the ON key, then wait until “0“ is indicated. Place rated weight on the weighing pan and tare on “0“ by pressing the TARE key.
Remove rated weight. Place the objects on the weighing pan successively, the balance will show any devia-
tion from the rated weight in “+“ and “-“. According to the same procedure packages with the same weight, related to a rated
weight, can be produced. Return to the weighing mode by pressing the TARE key.

8.5 Weight units

Two units are available: “kg“ and “lb“. The weight unit is chosen by pressing the ”Unit” key. A lamp to the right of the display signalises the respective unit. Unit conversion: 1 kg = 2.20462 lb
