Intended Use
The climate module is used to record climate data such as
temperature, air pressure, and humidity. When used in a
Sartorius balance near the sample, it can determine the air
density and thus perform an air buoyancy correction. This
in turn considerably increases the measurement accuracy
of the balance. The monitoring of climate limit values
is also possible both inside and outside of the weighing
chamber.
The climate module is located within the weighing
chamber in balances with a corresponding draft shield.
The climate module can also be attached to an external
tower outside of the draft shield to record climate data.

Warning and Safety Instructions
Installation
Only connect or disconnect the climate
module when the device is unplugged
from the power supply.
t Connect the D-SUB plug securely to the
device.
Safety
The climate module should only be
used indoors, and make sure that
foreign bodies and liquids cannot
penetrate it.
ESD protection measures must be
taken
Do not touch conductive parts for
reasons of ESD protection.
Therefore, when inserting the climate
module, only touch the housing or the
side edges! Do not touch the contact
surfaces.
Therefore: Take preventative measures.
As a minimum safeguard, you should
touch a grounded piece of metal to
discharge any static electricity.
