TABP-BA-e-2111 15
4 Basic Information (General)
4.1 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
pan. As soon as a stable weighing value is reached the weighing value can be read.
4.2 Improper Use
Do not use balance for dynamic add-on weighing procedures, 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 permanent load on the weighing pan. 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. Balance may be
damage by this.
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 faul ts and des tr uct ion 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.
4.3 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 or damage by media, liquids, natural wear and tear
• The appliance is improperly set up or incorrectly electrically connected
• The measuring system is overloaded
16 TABP-BA-e-2111
4.4 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.comwith 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.
5 Basic Safety Precautions
5.1 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.
All language versions contain a non-binding translation.
The original German is binding.
5.2 Personnel training
The appliance may only be operated and maintained by trained personnel.
6 T ransport and storage
6.1 Testing upon acceptance
When receiving the appliance, please check packaging immediately, and the
appliance itself when unpacking for possible visible damage.
TABP-BA-e-2111 17
6.2 Packaging / return transpor t
Keep all parts of the original packaging for a possibly
required return.
Only use original packaging for returning.
Prior to dispatch disconnect all cables and remove
loose/mobile parts.
Illustration example models d = 0.0001 g

7 Unpacking, Setup and Commi s si oning
7.1 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 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.
Non-permitted condensation (co ndensation 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 charge of weighed items or weighing container.
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.
7.2 Unpacking and checking
Remove device and accessories carefully from packaging, remove packaging
material and place device at the planned work place. Check if that there has been no
damage and that all packing items are present.

4. Levelling
Level balance with foot screws until the air bubble of the water balance is in the
prescribed circle.
Check levelling regularly
Check, whether the voltage acceptance on the scales is set correctly.
Do not connect the scales to the power mains unless the information on
consent by KERN.
7.3 Mains connection

Select a country-specific power plug and insert it in the mains adapter.
the scales (sticker) matches the local mains voltage.
Only use KERN original mains adapter. Using other makes requires
Important:
Before starting your weighing balance, check the mains cable for
damage.
Ensure that the power unit does not come into contact with liquids.
Ensure access to mains plug at all times.

Supply power to balance via mains
adapter. The display lig hts up and the
balance carries out a selftest. Internal
adjustment will be started automatically
(See chap.8.3.2). The motor noise of the
loading system for the inter nal
adjustment weight will be audible.
You can cancel the adjustment by
pressing the ON/OFF key.
The selftest is completed when „OFF“
appears on the display. From that point
onwards the weighing scale will be in
standby mode. The weighing balance will
remain switched on as long as it is
connected to the power supply.
To turn the display on/off, press the
ON/OFF key.
When the log-in function is enabled, use
the navigation keys to select the
respective user and enter password, see
chap. 12.7
7.4 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. Strictly observe hints in chapter Adjustment.
26 TABP-BA-e-2111
7.5 Connection of peripheral devices
Observe stable environmental conditions. A warming up time
When an optional printer is connected and the GLP function is connected,
Before connecting or disconnecting of additional devices (printer, PC) to the data
interface, always disconnect the balance from the power supply.
With your balance, only use accessories and peripheral devices by KERN, as they
are ideally tuned to your balance.
8 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.
•
(see chapter 1) is required for stabilization.
• Ensure that there are no objects on the weighing pan.
• Avoid vibration and air flow.
• Always carry out adjustment with the standard weighing platform in place.
• To cancel internal adjustment, press the ON/OFF key.
•
the adjustment log will be edited, see chap. 8.4
8.1 Automatic adjustment via PSC func ti on
Force-compensated scales react sensitively to changes in temperature. The higher
the sensitivity of the scale, the more pronounc ed the e ffec t. The te mper at ure
controlled PSC function enables the scale to automatically correct this effect.
PSC stands for Perfect Self Calibration and facilitates fully automatic internal scale
adjustment by means of an internal weight, based on time and/or temperature
criteria.
Adjustment in weighing mode is carried out automatically under the following
conditions:
(1) If there is a change in ambient temperature (∆t 1°C)
(2) When about four hours has passed since the previous calibration.
(3) When the balance is switched from standby status to weighing mode
and condition (1) or (2) has been met.
TABP-BA-e-2111 27
If one of the above conditions was met in
starts flashing while the weighing platform is
weighing mode, the weight symbol
flashes for about two minutes in order to
notify the pending adjustment; During
operation, the display will automatically
change and the motor sound of the weight
loading system is heard. In order to ensur e
proper PSC operation, prevent vibrations and
air flow.
• The PSC function is always active and cannot be disabled.
• Also, no measurements can be made duri ng auto ma ti c adj ust ment.
• When the weight symbol
loaded the following message will appear
Unload weighing plate
•In order to prevent that adjustment is starting during a measuring
sequence, press the ON/OFF key immediately when the following display
appears.
This will cancel the adjustment and you can proceed with the measuring
sequence.
Sometime later adjustment will be requested again by the flashing weight
symbol .
28 TABP-BA-e-2111
8.2 Time-c ontrol led automatic adjustment
With the help of its internal adjusting weight and integrated clock the balance can be
set to carry out automatic adjustment at set times (up to three times daily). This
function is a very convenient function, when adjustment reports are desired to be
made for regular adjustments, or when wishing span adjustments during break times
to avoid interruption of measurement work.
The weight symbol blinks for about two minutes as notification of span calibration
before it begins. Automatic adjustment can be stopped by actuating the [ON/OFF]
key during this message.

9 Verification
General introduction:
According to EU directive 2014/31/EC balances must be officially 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.
The scales used in the regulated area (-> verified scales) in the validity period of their
verification must retain the limit errors levels permitted for used scales which are
usually equal to twice the permitted limit error values for the scale reading during
verification.
After the verification expires, a re-verification is required. Scale adjustment required
to carry out a re-verification process, to retain the limit errors of the permitted scale
reading during the verification process, is not covered by the guarantee.
Verification notes:
An EU type approval exists for balances described in their technical data as
verifiable. If a balance is used where obligation to verify exists as described above, it
must be verified and re-verified at 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!
Verification of the balance is invalid without the seal.
The seal marks attached on verified balances point out that the balance may
only be opened and serviced by trained and authorised specialist staff. If the
seal mark is destroyed, verification looses its validity. Please observe all
national laws and legal regulations. In Germany a re-verification will be
necessary.

12.4 Settings for Stability and Response
Exists the possibility to tune the stability of the display and the degree of reaction of
the balance to the requirements of certain applications or the environmental
conditions.
Most measurements may be carried out by using default settings. In standard
weighing mode, stability and reaction have the same priority. For certain applications
such as e.g. dosage do use the dosing mode. In dosing mode the reaction degree
has the higher priority.
Beside the selection standard / dosing mode the stability of the display and the
reaction degree of the balanc e ca n addit ionally adapted in the menu.
Please note that in general slowing down reaction times result in higher stability of
the set data handling, while speeding up reaction times have an influence on the
stability deterioration.
