Calibration and Adjustment

Purpose

Adjustment is the correction of the difference between the measured value displayed and the true weight of a sample, or the reduction of the difference to an allowable level within maximum permissible error limits�

Using a verified balance in legal metrology:

Before use in legal metrology, the “internal calibration" function should be carried out at the installation location�

Features

The adjustment procedure should only be started when – The balance is unloaded – The balance is tared – The weighing signal is stable

– The sensitivity of the balance can be corrected a max� of 2%� – Adjustment with a Sartorius density determination kit YDK… is possible� – Balances with motorized leveling feet are leveled automatically prior to each

new calibration/adjustment (menu setting: device: extras: level: auto.)

If these settings are not made, the error message “Err 02" appears�

Adjustment can be made using different weight units: CAL.UNIT - grams, Kilogr (not for verified models)

– You can also configure the mass comparator to perform calibration/adjustment

automatically (isoCAL), when the preset time or temperature limit has been exceeded�

External calibration for verified balances of accuracy class K

– When the balance is used in legal metrology, external calibration is blocked as follows: – The menu access switch is locked – The menu access switch cap is sealed

To block calibration/adjustment: – Select Cal./Adj. - Blocked – Close the menu access switch on the back of the balance

Calibration and adjustment results can be printed in an ISO/GLP-compliant printout: settings and printout templates are listed starting on page 62�

Application parameters are deleted after calibration/adjustment�

Internal Calibration

In the operating menu, select Cal./Adj. -Cal.Int.� The balance housing has a built-in motorized calibration weight�

§ Select Calibration/Adjustment: Press the C key > The internal calibration weight is loaded automatically > The balance is adjusted > The internal calibration weight is removed

Cubis MSE Operating Instructions 33

Operation

isoCAL*: automatic calibration and adjustment

In the operating menu, select isocal-on� The balance will automatically display a flashing “isoCAL" character whenever the ambient temperature has changed since the last calibration|adjustment or a time interval has been exceeded� The balance wants to perform an automatic adjustment�

The automatic internal calibration and adjustment prompt is activated when the following conditions have been met – Temperature change or time interval is higher than listed in the table below – The load has not changed within the last 2 minutes – The balance has not been operated within the last 2 minutes – The load may not exceed 2% of the maximum capacity�

The following appears when the requirements are met 1� The “isoCal" symbol flashes 2� CAL�INT� appears in the measured value line

In the Setup menu, you can configure the balance so that it displays an adjustment prompt, but does not perform the calibration and adjustment functions automatically� (menu item NOTE)�

isoCAL is turned off on verified models:

the balance can only be used for legal-for-trade applications within a limited temperature range� – Balance of accuracy class k: +15°C to +25°C – Balance of accuracy class �: +10°C to +30°C

The fully automatic adjustment function is triggered by the following criteria:

Model When the After temperature a time changes by interval of

MSE6�6…, MSE3�6P, MSE2�7…, MSE225S, MSE225P, MSE125P, MSE324S, MSE224S, MSE324P, MSE124S, MSE3203P, MSE2203S, MSE2203P, MSE1203P 1�5 °C 4 h

Density Determination

Display symbol: u

Purpose

This application program can be used to determine the density of solid materials according to the buoyancy method�

Features

The density of liquid (g/cm3) can be set for a corresponding temperature via the S key� See the next page for a table on water density values� Factory setting is 1 g/cm3�

The following formula is used:

Density of sample =

Weight in air ———————————————————————— (weight in air – weight in water)

The liquid density is displayed briefly when you start the density calculation� Positive and negative weight values can be applied for the sample in the air and water� The value in water, however, must be less than the value in the air; otherwise, this will trigger an error message� The results can be displayed with 0 to 3 decimal places: See the chapter entitled “Configuration�” Not part of the scope of delivery: sample holder and suspension wire�

Data Interfaces

Purpose Interfaces are used to exchange data with connected peripheral devices: Measured

values and calculated values can be output to a printer or PC; conversely, control commands and data inputs can be sent to connected devices (PC, keyboard, foot switch, barcode scanner)� Each interface has to be configured according to the peripheral device and desired function� No error messages are generated when no devices are connected to an interface port (open data port)�

Features Cubis series balances have at least two interfaces:

1 Peripheral port (25-pin interface)

2 USB socket for PC connection

3 In models with a weighing range of up to 15 kg, the slot may contain other

ports: – 25-pin interface (YDO01MS-R) – 9-pin interface with PS2 port The PS2 socket has no function� (YDO01MS-P) – Bluetooth® module (YDO01MS-B)

Protocols For data exchange, the interfaces are configured with the following protocols:

– Printer output – SBI (Sartorius Balance Interface): Sartorius standard protocol for output to a

PC or control unit� This simple ASCII-based protocol allows you to use ESC

commands from your PC to control the basic weighing functions� – xBPI (eXtended Balance Processor Interface, also called X-Bus): binary protocol

with extended command volume� This protocol lets you control numerous

weighing functions� For further information on this, please contact Sartorius� To use the protocols, application software must be installed on the PC, e� g�, SartoTerminal�

Synchronization During data communication between balance and PC, messages consisting of ASCII

or binary characters are transmitted via the interface� For error-free data exchange, parameters for baud rate, parity, handshake mode, and character format must be identical for both units�

You can configure the respective settings in System Settings (menu)� In addition to these settings, data output for the balance can also be made dependent on several conditions that are defined in the individual tasks� These conditions are described under each of the tasks�
