Safety Precautions

This scale has been constructed in accordance with the European Directives as well as international regulations and standards for operation of electrical equipment, electromagnetic compatibility, and stipulated safety requirements. Improper use or handling, however, can result in damage and/or injury.

Read these operating instructions thoroughly before using your scale to prevent damage to the equipment. Keep these instructions in a safe place.

Follow the instructions below to ensure safe and trouble-free operation of your scale:

! Do not use this scale in

a hazardous area/location

! Make sure that the voltage rating

printed on the AC adapter is identical to your local line voltage

– The only way to switch the power

off completely is to disconnect the AC adapter

– The scale housing is protected

as listed below against dust deposits and water splashes – the housing is not completely dust-tight, however.

Operating Design

The scales in the Factory Series consist of a weighing cell and a display and control unit. In addition to the choice of power supply (via AC adapter or external rechargeable battery pack), your scale also has an interface port for connecting a printer, computer or universal remote control switch.

The display and control unit and the weighing cell can be set up separately. Operation of Factory scales follows a uniform “philosophy” which is described in this manual.

Where not expressly indicated otherwise, the uses described in this manual apply to verified and verifiable scale versions (indicated by the suffix “-0CE” in the model number), as well as the standard version.

Combining Applications

You can combine the use of various application programs to meet your more complicated requirements.

Press the k/[TOGGLE] key to select the desired application programs.

Keys

Your Factory scale is operated either through the keys on the display and control unit or via a connected PC. Operation through the scale keys is described in the following.

Getting Started

Storage and Shipping Conditions

Allowable storage temperature: +5 °C ...+40 °C +41°F ...+104°F

The packaging has been designed to ensure that the scale will not be damaged even if it is dropped from a height of 80 centimeters (about 31 inches).

Unpacking the Scale

● After unpacking the scale, check

it immediately for any visible damage as a result of rough handling during shipment.

$ If this is the case, proceed

as directed in the chapter entitled “Care and Maintenance,” under the section on “Safety Inspection.”

It is a good idea to save the box and all parts of the packaging until you have successfully installed your scale. Only the original packaging provides the best protection for shipment. Before packing your scale, unplug all connected cables to prevent damage. The strip of cardboard between the display and control unit and the weighing platform is important for protecting the equipment during shipment!

Important Note Concerning Verified Scales Approved for Use as Legal Measuring Instruments in the EU*:

Provided that an official seal is required for the verified scale, a control seal is affixed to the scale. This seal will be irreparably damaged if you attempt remove it. If the seal is broken, the validity of the verification will become void and you must have your scale re-verified.

* including the Signatories of

the Agreement on the European Economic Area

Installation Instructions

The Sartorius Factory scales are designed to provide reliable weighing results under normal ambient conditions in the laboratory and in industry. When choosing a location to set up your scale, observe the following so that you will be able to work with added speed and accuracy:

– Set up the scale on a stable,

even surface

– Avoid placing the scale in close

proximity to a heater or otherwise exposing the scale to heat or direct sunlight

– Protect the scale from drafts that

come from open windows or doors

– Avoid exposing the scale to

extreme vibrations during weighing

– Protect the scale from aggressive

chemical vapors

– Do not expose the scale to

extreme moisture over long periods

– Level the scale at the place

of installation

Conditioning the Scale

Moisture in the air can condense on the surfaces of a cold scale whenever it is brought into a substantially warmer place. If you transfer the scale to a warmer area, make sure to condition it for about 2 hours at room temperature, leaving it unplugged from AC power. Afterwards, if you keep the scale connected to AC power, the continuous positive difference in temperature between the inside of the scale and the outside will practically rule out the effects of moisture condensation.

Monitoring Ambient Conditions When Using Verified Scales Approved for Use as Legal Measuring Instruments in the EU*:

$ For scales of accuracy class

k, a thermometer and baro-

meter are recommended for monitoring ambient conditions.

Getting Started

Connecting the Scale to AC Power

● Check the voltage rating and the plug design

– If they do not match the rating or standard you use, contact your Sartorius

office or dealer

Use only

– Original Sartorius AC adapters

– AC adapters with a registered approval rating from a national

testing laboratory

$ To use a main feeder cable from the ceiling or to mount a CEE plug,

you will have to make arrangements

$ See the chapter entitled “Accessories” for information on using an IP65-

protected industrial AC adapter or an external rechargeable battery pack

with your scale

● Insert the right-angle plug into the jack and then tighten the screws

● Then insert the plug of the AC adapter into a wall outlet (mains)

Safety Precautions

The AC adapter rated to Class 2 can be plugged into any wall outlet without requiring any additional safety precautions. The pole of the output voltage is connected to the scale housing, which can be grounded for operation. The data interface is also electrically connected to the scale housing (ground).

Note:

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Sartorius AG could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Connecting Electronic Peripheral Devices

● Make absolutely sure to unplug the scale from AC power before

you connect or disconnect a peripheral device (printer or PC) to or from

the interface port.

Warmup Time

To deliver exact results, the scale must warm up for at least 30 minutes after initial connection to AC power or after a relatively long power outage. Only after this time will the scale have reached the required operating temperature.

Using Verified Scales Approved for Use as Legal Measuring Instruments in the EU*:

● The scale must warm up for at least 24 hours after initial connection

to AC power or after a relatively long power outage.

Calibration/Adjustment “isoTEST”

Purpose

Calibration is the determination of the difference between the weight readout and the true weight (mass) of a sample. Calibration does not entail making any changes within the scale.

Adjustment is the correction of this difference between the measured value displayed and the true weight (mass) of the sample, or the reduction of the difference to an allowable level within maximum permissible error limits.

Using Verified Scales as Legal Measuring Instruments in the EU*:

Before using your scale as a legal measuring instrument, you must perform “internal calibration” at the place of installation after the warmup period.

Available Features

You can start the isoTEST function at the press of a key to check a scale used as measuring, inspection and test equipment at any time. The scale is calibrated and any deviation is displayed. Press the Start soft key to start adjustment. If you do not wish to have the scale adjusted, press the

End soft key to cancel the isoTEST.

Your scale can be calibrated externally (Scale menu: CAL/isoTST key function; menu item Ext.

cal./adj.;factory-def. wt. or Ext. cal./adj.; user-defined wt.) or

internally (Internal cal./

adjustment).

External calibration can be performed – using a pre-set weight value

Ext. cal./adj.; factory-def. wt., or

– with a user-defined weight

Ext. cal./adj.; user-defined wt.

The adjustment can be performed – automatically following

calibration: Cal., then

auto adjust. or

– if desired, the adjustment

operation can be started manually after calibration: Cal.,

then manual adjust

You can also configure whether the calibration mode – will be activated according

to the specific setting (external/ internal) or

– can be selected by the user after

pressing the isoTST soft key:

Selection mode.

You can have the scale automatically display an adjustment prompt after a certain time interval has elapsed since the last calibration/adjustment or when the ambient temperature changes by a defined amount.

You can also configure the scale to perform calibration and adjustment automatically (isoCAL) when the pre-set time and/or temperature limit is reached On

and reset application

and On without resetting

app.

You can have the calibration/ adjustment results documented in a ISO/GMP-compliant printout; see page 100.

Over/Under Checkweighing H

Purpose

This program is used to check whether a sample corresponds to a pre-set target value or is within a specific tolerance range. In addition to the display in the measured value line, the results are shown on the bar graph and can also be routed through the interface port via control lines for further electronic processing.

You can use this application program in combination with a program chosen from Application 1 (e.g., counting, weighing in percent) and one from Application 3 (totalizing, formulation, statistics).

Available Features

– Optional configuration in

the Setup menu for long-term storage of target value and tolerance limits

– Optional scale configuration

in Setup for automatically initializing this application and loading the values stored in long term memory for the target value and the upper and lower tolerance limits when you turn on the scale

– You can perform checkweighing

– without entering a target value,

but only upper and lower

tolerance limits; – as differential checkweighing; – with symmetric or asymmetric

limits which can be entered

as percentages

– Enter target value and limits by

placing a load on the scale or using the numeric keys

– Control in entering target and

tolerance values, so that the upper limit ≥ the target ≥ the lower limit ≥ 1 display increment

– Press the Show soft key to

display target value and tolerance limits in the text line after initializing the application.

– Weight value in bar graph

displayed in relation to upper and lower limits and target value.

– “OK” value counter displayed in

the text line (e.g., n = 4). This counter shows the number of measured values that lie within the tolerance range.

– Optional automatic printout of

weight value when it is within the control range at stability

After an automatic printout, the scale is blocked. Before you can generate the next printout, you must unblock the scale by unloading it (weight must be under 30% of the target) or by placing a load on the scale (bringing the weight up to at least 170% of the target).

– Press c to delete the

initialization parameters and end the Checkweighing program

– Accuracy of a weight readout or

keyboard input as target/tolerance values corresponds to the display accuracy

– Optional scale configuration in the

Setup menu for automatic output to the interface port (print application parameters) of target value and tolerance limits when initialization is completed

– Control range for the scale’s data

output port lines is 30% to 170% of the target value

– Optional configuration in the

Setup menu for activation of control lines dependent on weight value (weight value within control range, stability reached)

– Toggling the display between

weight readout and control (checkweighing) display by pressing the corresponding soft key. If the weight value exceeds tolerances, the measured value line shows the weight while the control display shows “LL” for “too low” or “HH” for “too high.”

Operating the Scale

Preparation

The checkweighing program often requires a target value for comparison to the current value. This target has a tolerance range, which is defined by absolute weight values. The tolerance range is defined as either an absolute value or a percentage: upper and lower limits. Percentage values can be symmetric or asymmetric to the target value. These values can be entered either by storing weights on the scale or via key input.

There are four control lines, called data output port lines, which are activated as follows: (see also the diagram at the right):

– lighter

– equal

– heavier

– set

The control range spans 30% to 170% of the target value. You can configure this parameter in the Setup menu (App: Application 2: Checkweighing: Activation of port lines:) to select whether the control lines are:

Response of Control Lines During Checkweighing

Configurations: – always on – activated at stability

Configurations: – activated within control range – activated at stability within

control range

– activated within the control range

– always on

– activated at stability within the

control range

– activated at stability

This makes it possible, for example, to connect a simple indicator for the weighing results (e.g., three different colors, one each for the weighing results: too light, O.K., too heavy).
