Intended Use
Model YDP 10-0CE is a data printer
designed to receive weighing data
from a connected weighing instrument
and print it on plain paper (roll width:
57.5 mm). Text and data are printed
with up to 24 characters per line.
The data printer meets the quality
standards for research in the chemical
and pharmaceutical industries, in compliance with the requirements of GLP
(Good Laboratory Practice) and GMP
(Good Manufacturing Practice).
The printer can be used for output
of weighing data. Data is sent to the
output port either automatically or at
the press of a key. The printer can
be used as auxiliary equipment with
a weighing instrument that has been
verified for use in legal metrology; see
“Using the Printer in Legal Metrology”
for more information.
The data printer complies with the EC
Directives and Standards for electrical
equipment and electromagnetic compatibility.
Use only rechargeable nickel-metal
hydride, size AA (order no. 69Y03136).
Avoid draining the batteries completely,
as this will reduce their recharging
capacity. Used batteries are hazardous
waste and must be properly disposed of
in accordance with your local hazardous
waste disposal regulations.
As a rule, the printer is powered over
the data cable connected to the weighing instrument.
Depending on your weighing instrument model, it may be necessary to use
a different external power source. To do
this, use only an original Sartorius AC
adapter (see “Accessories”). If you have
any difficulties, contact our Service
Center or your Sartorius dealer.
Use only a moist cloth to wipe down the
printer to ensure that no liquid enters
the printer housing during cleaning.
Caution: The serrated edge for tearing
off printouts is sharp; direct contact can
result in injury.
