3 Basic Information (General)
3.1 Proper use
The balance you purchased is intended to determine the weighing value of 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.
As soon as a stable weighing value is reached the weighing value can be read.
3.2 Improper Use
Do not use balance for dynamic weighings. 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 permanent load on the weighing plate. This may damage the measuring
system.
Impacts and overloading exceeding the stated maximum load (max) of the balance,
minus a possibly existing tare load, must be strictly avoided. This could cause damage to the balance.
Never operate balance in explosive environment. The serial version is not explosion
protected. The structure of the balance may not be modified. This may lead to incorrect weighing results, safety-related faults and destruction of the balance.
The balance may only be used according to the described conditions. Other areas of
use must be released by KERN in writing.
The appliance may only be opened by trained service technicians according to
KERN standards.
Before opening, disconnect appliance from power supply!
Warranty claims will be voided when appliance is opened.
The FEJ weighing system may not be used in explosive areas or areas with
explosive substances.
3.3 Warranty
Warranty claims shall be voided in case
- Our conditions in the operation manual are ignored
- The appliance is used outside the described uses
- The appliance is modified or opened
- Mechanical damage and damage caused by media, liquids
- Natural wear and tear
- The appliance is improperly set up or incorrectly electrically connected
- The measuring system is overloaded
FES/FEJ-BA-e-1132

3.4 Monitoring of Test Resources
In the framework of quality assurance the measuring-related properties of the balance and, if applicable, the testing weight, must be checked regularly. The responsible user must define a suitable interval as well as type and scope of this test. 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. In
KERN’s accredited DKD calibration laboratory test weights and balances may be
calibrated (return to the national standard) fast and at moderate cost.
4 Basic Safety Precautions
4.1 Pay attention to the instructions in the Operation Manual
Carefully read this operation manual before setup and commissioning, even if you
are already familiar with KERN balances.
4.2 Personnel training
The appliance may only be operated and maintained by trained personnel.
5 Transport and storage
5.1 Testing upon acceptance
When receiving the appliance, please check packaging immediately, and the appliance itself when unpacking for possible visible damage.
5.2 Packaging
Keep all parts of the original packaging in case you need to return the appliance.
Only use original packaging for returning.
Before sending, disconnect all connected cables and loose/movable parts.
Attach possibly existing transport safeguards. Secure all parts, e.g. glass windshield,
weighing plate, power unit etc., to prevent slipping and damage.

6 Unpacking, Setup and Commissioning
6.1 Installation Site, Location of Use
The balances are designed in a way that reliable weighing results are achieved in
common conditions of use.
You will work accurately and fast, if you select the right location for your balance.
Therefore, observe the following for the installation site:
• Place the balance on a firm, level surface;
• Avoid extreme heat as well as temperature fluctuation caused by install-
ing 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. Non-permitted condensation (condensation of air humidity on the
appliance) may occur if a cold appliance is taken to a considerably
warmer environment. In this case, acclimatize the disconnected appliance for ca. 2 hours at room temperature.
• Avoid static charging of the material to be weighed, weighing container
and windshield.
If electro-magnetic fields or static charge occur, or if the power supply is unstable
major deviations on the display (incorrect weighing results) are possible. In that case,
the location must be changed.
6.2 Unpacking
Carefully remove the balance from the packaging, remove plastic cover and setup
balance at the intended workstation.

6.6 Battery power supply
The optionally supplied battery is charged with the supplied power supply.
Before the first use, the battery should be charged by connecting it to the mains
power supply for at least 12 hours. The operating time of the battery is about. 6h.
Charging time until complete recharging ca. 12h.
In the menu you can activate the AUTO-OFF function [yA.P.1]. After 3 min without
load change the balance switches automatically off in order to spare the battery.
Whilst in battery mode the balance is IP 65 protected.
When the balance is in battery mode the following symbols appear on the display:
Battery charge sufficient
Battery very low. To charge the battery, connect it to the mains
as soon as possible (re-calibration not possible).

6.8 Initial Commissioning
In order to obtain exact results with the electronic balances, your balance must have
reached the operating temperature (see warming up time chap. 1). During this warming up time, the balance must be connected to the power supply (mains, accumulator
or battery).
The accuracy of the balance depends on the local acceleration of gravity.
Please be sure to observe the information in the chapter on adjusting in chap. 6.8.
6.8.1 Power display
The balance will carry out a self-test

6.8.4 Balance zero display
Environmental influences can lead to the exact figure of “000.0“ not being displayed
in spite of an empty weighing dish. It is, however, possible to reset your balance to
zero at any time and thus ensure that weighing really does commence at zero. Setting to zero when a weight is applied is only possible within a certain type-dependent
range. In the event that the balance cannot be reset to zero with an applied weight,
this range has been exceeded.
[o - Err ] will appear on the display.
Operation Display
If the balance does not show exactly zero
although the pan scale is unloaded, press the
-button and the balance will be reset to
zero.
After a brief waiting time your balance is
reset to zero.
In addition to this, the sign for the balance
zero setting will be displayed [→0←].

6.9 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. To receive accurate measuring values it is also recommended to adjust the balance periodically in weighing operation.
6.9.1 Adjustment with external weight (only FES)
Procedure when adjusting:
Observe stable environment conditions. A warming-up time (see cap. 1) for stabilisation is necessary. Ensure that there are no objects on the weighing plate.
At verified balances, the adjustment is locked by a switch. In order to adjust, open the
locking switch see chap.6.11.

6.9.4 Adjustment test with internal weight (only FEJ)
During adjustment tests the balance automatically compares the saved value of the
adjustment weight with the actual value. This is only a check, i.e. no values are
changed.
Procedure:
Observe stable environmental conditions. A warming up time (see chap. 1) is required for stabilization. Ensure that there are no objects on the weighing plate.

6.11 Verification
General introduction:
According to EU directive 90/384/EEC balances must be verified if they are used as
follows (legally controlled 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 manufacturing final packages.
In cases of doubt, please contact your local trade in standard.
Verification instructions
An EU type approval exists for balances described in their technical data as verifyable. If a balance is used where obligation to verify exists as described above, it must
verified and re-verified in regular intervals.
Re-verification of a balance is carried out according to the respective national regulations. The validity for verification of balances in Germany is e.g. 2 years.
The legal regulation of the country where the balance is used must be observed!
6.12 Verification switch and seal
The calibration switch is located on the back of the display. Access to the calibration
switch by removing the seal and the rubber plug (see drawing). Prior to calibrating,
the calibration switch must be moved into the calibration position.
• Position left: enabled
• Position right: Calibration position
Position calibration switch
FES/FEJ-BA-e-1132

After verification the balance is sealed at the indicated positions.
Verification of the balance is invalid without the "seal".
Position of the “official seals“:
Balances with obligation to verify must be taken out of operation if:
- The weighing result of the balance is outside the error limit. Therefore,
in regular intervals load balance with known test weight (ca. 1/3 of the max.
load) and compare with displayed value.
- The reverification deadline has been exceeded.

10.2 Weighing/parts counting
With parts counting you can either count parts into a container or remove parts from
a container. To count a greater number of parts the average weight per part has to
be determined with a small quantity (reference quantity). The larger the reference
quantity, the higher the counting exactness. High reference must be selected for
small parts or parts with considerably different sizes.
The process has four steps:
• Tare the weighing container
• Determine the reference unit
• Weigh in the reference unit
• Count the items
Operation Display
Activate function [q SET. 2]
(see chapter 7).
The display shows the reference quantity
symbol "Pcs".

desired, press the F key.
Reference optimization:
By adding more pieces (up to the 3-fold
quantity), you can optimize the reference. At
every reference optimization, the reference
weight is calculated anew. As the additional
pieces increase the base for the calculation,
the reference also becomes more exact.

12 Weighing with tolerance range
12.1 General Information
This balance can be used as dispensing as well as sorting balance; the respective
lower tolerance limit as well as upper tolerance limit can be programmed. An acoustic
signal supports portioning, dispensing or sorting.
• In the menu, (see chapter 7) activate the tolerance weighing function:
[2.SEL.2]
or the combination tolerance weighing/adding (tolerance control on the respective poured quantity):
[2. SEL.3]
Entering limits is possible for the following functions:
• Weighing
• Parts counting
• Percent determination
There are several functions available for tolerance control of the balance KERN FEJ.
There are two different ways to carry out evaluation of limits:
1. Evaluation of absolute values [24. TXP.1]:
An exact reference value (e.g. 1 kg) is set.
2. Evaluation with difference values [24. TXP.2]:
An upper limit and a lower limit for a reference value are set.
Example:
Reference

Lower limit Upper limit
Poured quantity 1,000.0 g 970.0 g 1,050.0 g
Evaluation of absolute values
1,000.0 g 970.0 g 1,050.0 g
Evaluation with difference values
1,000.0 g -30.0 g 50.0 g
FES/FEJ-BA-e-1132
55
There are two different ways to set the tolerance limits:
1. Place the values (object) on the balance -
> Save this value
2. Numeric entering of values -
> Enter the limits via keyboard.
NOTE:
Ö If a limiting value was set it remains saved until the balance is turned off.
Ö For the functions weighing, counting, percent individual limits can be set.
Ö When entering the limits please pay attention to the type of evaluation that was set.
12.2 Display of the results

In case of an error in the program process, briefly turn off the balance and disconnect
from power supply. The weighing process must then be restarted from the beginning.
Help:
Fault Possible cause
The displayed weight does not glow.
• The balance is not switched on.
• The mains supply connection has been
interrupted (mains cable not plugged
in/faulty).
• Power supply interrupted.
The displayed weight is permanently
changing
• Draught/air movement
• Table/floor vibrations
• The weighing plate is in contact with for-
eign matter.
• Electromagnetic fields / static charging
(choose different location/switch off interfering device if possible)
The weighing value is obviously
• The display of the balance is not at zero
wrong
• Adjustment is no longer correct.
• Great fluctuations in temperature.
• Electromagnetic fields / static charging
(choose different location/switch off interfering device if possible)
Should other error messages occur, switch balance off and then on again. If the error
message remains inform manufacturer.
