Care and Maintenance

Service

Regular servicing by a Sartorius technician will extend the service life of your balance and ensure its continued weighing accuracy. Sartorius can offer you service contracts, with your choice of regular maintenance intervals ranging from 1 month to 2 years. The optimum maintenance interval depends on the operating conditions at the place of installation and on the individual tolerance requirements.

Repairs

Repair work must be performed by trained service technicians. Any attempt by untrained persons to perform repairs may lead to hazards for the user.

Cleaning



Unplug the AC adapter from the wall outlet (mains supply). If you have an interface cable connected to the balance port, unplug it from the port,



Clean the balance using a piece of cloth which has been wet with a mild detergent (soap)



After cleaning, wipe down the balance with a soft, dry cloth. Removing and Cleaning the Weighing Pan:



Lift up and remove the weighing pan together with the pan support by gripping them from under the shield ring. Make sure that you do not damage the weighing system in doing so.

Make sure that no liquid enters the balance housing.

Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents (solvents or similar agents).

Cleaning Stainless Steel Surfaces

Clean all stainless steel parts regularly. Remove the stainless steel weighing pan and thoroughly clean it separately. Use a damp cloth or sponge to clean any stainless steel parts on the balance. Only use commercially available household cleaning agent that is suitable for use on stainless steel. Clean stainless steel surfaces by wiping them down. Then rinse thoroughly, making sure to remove all residues. Afterwards, allow the balance to dry. If desired, you can apply oil to the cleaned surfaces as additional protection. Solvents are permitted for use only on stainless steel parts.

Safety Inspection

If there is any indication that safe operation of the balance with the AC adapter is no longer warranted:

 Turn off the power and disconnect the equipment

from AC power immediately

> Lock the equipment in a secure place to ensure that

it cannot be used for the time being

In this case, notify your nearest Sartorius Service Center or the International Technical Support Unit based in Goettingen, Germany. Maintenance and repair work may only be performed by service technicians who are authorized by Sartorius.

Instructions for Recycling

To ensure adequate protection for safe shipment, your balance has been packaged to the extent necessary using environmentally friendly materials. After successful installation of the balance, you should return this packaging for recycling because it is a valuable source of secondary raw material. For information on recycling options, including recycling of old weighing equipment, contact your municipal waste disposal center or local recycling depot.
