Balance features
• The B-S/FACT balance line ranges from high-resolution analytical balances (AB-S/FACT) with a readability of 0.1 mg / 0.01 mg through to precision balances (PB-S/FACT) with a readability of 0.001g to 1g. The weighing ranges extend from 51g to 8.1kg.
• FACT (Fully Automatic Calibration Technology), fully automatic, motorized adjustment (calibration) with internal weight.
• In addition to basic weighing operations such as weighing, taring and adjusting (calibration) the functions
“Piece counting”, “Percent weighing”, “Free Factor” or “Dynamic weighing” (automatic or manual start)

can be activated.
• METTLER TOLEDO DualRange balances have two ranges. These models also have a fine (semimicro) ran- ge from 0 to 31 g respectively 61 g. In this fine range the balance shows the result with a higher resolution, i.e. with one decimal place more.
• METTLER TOLEDO DeltaRange balances also have a movable fine range, with 10 times smaller display increments, over the the entire weighing range.
PB-S/FACT (0.01g)
• Several B-S/FACT balances are fitted with a glass draft shield in the factory; with other models a draft shield is available as an optional extra.
• All balances are fitted with an RS232C interface as standard.
• All models have an internal adjustment weight.
Note
All B-S/FACT balances are available as certified versions. Please ask your METTLER TOLEDO dealer for de-

2.2 Cautionary notes

All B-S/FACT balances are supplied in environmentally compatible packaging.
The standard equipment for every balance comprises:
• AC adapter, to national codes
• AC adapter with country-specific power cable (Models AB135-S/FACT / AB265-S/FACT)
• Transparent plastic protective cover, fitted, to keep your balance clean at all times
• Operating instructions, to ensure optimum utilization of your balance›s capabilities
• CE declaration of conformity (in separate brochure 11780294)
AB-S/FACT with readability of 0.01/ 0.1 mg: • Weighing pan ø 80 mm with draft shield element
• Draft shield “0.1 mg” (237 mm) PB-S/FACT with readability of 0.001 g: • Weighing pan ø 100 mm with draft shield element
• Draft shield “mg” (165 mm) PB-S/FACT with readability of 0.01 g: • Weighing pan ø 180 mm with pan support
• Retaining ring for protective cover, fitted PB-S/FACT with readability of 0.1/1 g: • Weighing pan 180 x 180 mm with pan support
• Base plate and intermediate plate for protective cover,fitted
• B-S/FACT balances must not be operated in hazardous areas with the standard-supply AC adapter.
• Before connecting the AC adapter, verify that the voltage printed on it corresponds to the local mains voltage. If this is not the case, please contact your local METTLER TOLEDO dealer.
• B-S/FACT balances may only be used indoors in a dry environment.
• For use with an certified (CSA or equivalent) power supply, which must have a limited and SELV circuit output.

2.4 Setting up, leveling, preparations for weighing below the balance, connecting to power supply

The optimum location
The correct location makes an important contribution to the accuracy of the weighing results of high-resolution analytical and precision balances.
Hence, ensure a
• stable, vibration-free position as horizontal as possible
Avoid
• direct sunlight
• excessive temperature fluctuations
• drafts
The best location is on a stable bench in a corner protected against drafts, as far away as possible from doors, windows, radiators or the louvers of air conditioners.
Antitheft device
B-S/FACT balances are equipped with a lug for the optional antitheft device.
The antitheft device (cable with lock) is suitable for all models. It is available from METTLER TOLEDO unter the order number 590101.
9
10
Leveling
B-S/FACT balances have a spirit level and two adjustable leveling feet to compensate for slight irregularities in the surface of the weighing bench. The balance is exactly horizontal when the air bubble is in the middle of the level glass.
Procedure
Adjust the two leveling feet appropriately until the air bubble comes to rest exactly in the middle of the glass: Air bubble at “12 o›clock” turn both feet counterclockwise
Air bubble at “3 o›clock” turn left foot clockwise, right foot counterclockwise Air bubble at “6 o›clock” turn both feet clockwise Air bubble at “9 o›clock” turn left foot counterclockwise, right foot clockwise
Note
The balance should be leveled and adjusted (Section 2.5) each time it is moved to a new location.
Preparations for weighing below the balance
To carry out weighing operations below the balance, the special cover on the underside of the balance must be slackened (care: when doing this the balance may only be laid on its side, not turned upside down!), turned through 180° and retightened. This exposes the opening for the hanger, making weighing below the balance possible.
Connecting the power supply
➞ Before connecting the AC adapter, check that the voltage printed on it corresponds to the local mains
voltage. If this is not the case, please contact your local METTLER TOLEDO dealer.
➞ Plug the AC adapter into the AC adapter socket on the balance, and connect to the power supply. ➞ The balance performs a self-test. This test is finished when “OFF” appears. ➞ Press the «On» key briefly: the balance is in operational readiness. Before any work is performed with the
balance, it must be adjusted (Section 2.5).
Notes
To achieve accurate results with analytical balances (AB-S/FACT), these must be connected to the power supply for at least 60 minutes to warm up to operating temperature before the first weighing operation is carried out. An optional AccuPac B-S (rechargeable external battery) can be used to operate all B-S/FACT balances inde­pendently of the mains power supply

2.5 Adjusting (calibration)

To obtain accurate weighing results, the balance must be adjusted to match the gravitational acceleration at its location. Adjusting is necessary:
• before the balance is used for the first time
• at regular intervals during weighing service
• after a change of location

2.5.1 Fully automatic adjustment (calibration) FACT

The factory setting is fully automatic adjustment FACT (Fully Automatic Calibration Technologiy) with the internal weight (see also Section 4.3.3). In this setting, you have no need worry about adjusting your balance. The balance adjusts itself automatically
• after the warm-up phase on connection to the power supply,
• when a change in the ambient conditions, e.g. the temperature could lead to a noticeable deviation in the
measurement.

2.5.2 Manual adjustment (calibration)

To obtain accurate results, the balance must be connected to the power supply for 30 minutes (AB-S/FACT analytical balances 60 minutes) in order to reach operating temperature before adjusting.

Notes
• Because of certification legislation, the certified models cannot be adjusted with an external weight.
• The adjustment procedure can be terminated at any time with the «C» key. The message “Abort” appears
briefly to confirm that adjustment has been canceled, and the balance reverts to weighing mode.
