1 Introduction
Thank you for choosing a METTLER TOLEDO balance.
The balances of the XPR line combine a large number of weighing and adjustment possibilities with excep-
tionally convenient operation.
The XPR line comprises a range of balances which differ from each other in relation to their weighing range
and resolution.
The following features are common to all models of the XPR line:
• Fully automatic adjustment using internal weights.
• Built-in level sensor and leveling aid for fast and easy leveling.
• 7 inch capacitive color TFT touchscreen.
• Different methods that can be defined individually.
• Different routine tests that can be defined individually.
• Functions to manage and define user groups and user rights.
• Functions to collect data such as settings that have been changed or objects that have been deleted/
added.
Disclaimer for comparators
In this document "balance" is a terminology preamble and stands for comparators.
Comparators are characterized by their higher resolution compared to balances and are mainly used for
differential weighing application, such as the calibration of standard weights. Beside standard balance
tests, comparators have also been tested with differential repeatability (ABA repeatability) during production.

5.3 Selecting the location
A balance is a sensitive precision instrument. The location where it is placed will have a profound effect on
the accuracy of the weighing results.
• Choose a solid table that is as horizontal as possible.
Choose the table according to the maximum capacity of the
balance.
The balance must only be used indoors and up to a
maximum altitude of 4,000m above sea level.
• Before switching on the balance, wait until all parts are at
room temperature (+10 °C to +30°C).
The humidity must be between 10% and 80% noncondensing.
• The power plug must be accessible.
• Vibration-free location
• No direct sunlight
• No excessive temperature fluctuations
• No strong drafts
5.4 Assembling balances with S weighing platform
5.4.1 Attaching the terminal to the weighing platform
The terminal is usually placed in front of the weighing platform on the terminal support. The terminal can
also be placed individually, e.g. beside the weighing platform or it can be fixed on an additional terminal
stand.

Damage to the balance
The weighing platform and the terminal are not safely fixed by the terminal support and
may fall off when carrying.
− Remove the terminal from the weighing platform and place it on the weighing pan
when carrying the balance.
1 Place the weighing platform on a flat surface.
2 Position the terminal support (1) in front of the
weighing platform. The plug of the pre-mounted
terminal connection cable (2) must lie between the
terminal support (1) and the weighing platform.
3 Push the terminal support towards the weighing
platform. The far end of the terminal support (3)
must be pushed into the lock element (4) at the
bottom of the weighing platform.
4 Use the terminal connection cable to connect the
terminal with the weighing platform.
5 Place the terminal on top of the terminal support.
6 Push the terminal towards the weighing platform
until the terminal locks into the terminal support.
ð The terminal is mounted and connected to the
weighing platform.
5.4.2 Balances 0.1 mg with Pro Draft Shield and SmartPan weighing pan
Note
The 0.1 mg balances with Pro Draft Shield are equipped with a ring seal. The aim of the ring seal is to
isolate the weighing chamber from draft and must always be correctly installed at the bottom of the Pro
Draft Shield.
