Instructions

Instructions

Use the correct weighing units.

Using incorrect weighing units can lead to accidents as a result of weighing errors. Check that the weighing units are correct before starting weighing.

Treat the balance with care and respect.

The balance is a precision instrument. Subjecting it to impact may result in malfunctions. When moving the balance, remove the pan, the pan supporter the shield plate, fix the glass draft shield, the Draft shield inner plate, the Power pack, the Stage, the Shield case and the Multi-stand, etc in place, and grasp it firmly with both hands when carrying it. If the balance is to be stored for long periods of time, place it in the packaging box which was used for delivery and store it in a safe location with few temperature fluctuations.

■■  Risks Involved in Repairs/Dismantling/Modifications

! CAUTION

Prohibitions Never disassemble, modify or attempt to repair this product or any accessory.

2.3 Installation

Start at step 3 when installing a UPY Series balance. Prepare a plus (+) screw driver for a UPX Series balance.

1 Place the balance main body upside down. (UPX only)

! Caution

Do not operate step 2 with the balance placed on its side. Place the balance on a smooth surface.

2 Referring to the explanation label on the bottom of the balance, turn the two transportation screws counterclockwise until they tighten again. (UPY only)

! Caution

When moving the balance again, turn the two transportation screws clockwise until they tighten. (UPX only)

3 Slowly and carefully turn the main body back over (right side up).

4 This balance has three level screws (adjustable feet) at the right front, left front and right rear corners.

Turning a level screw clock-wise stretches the leg to raise the balance body there. Turning anticlockwise withdraws the leg and lowers the balance body.

The level indicator locates at left rear. The bubble of it is off center when the balance is not placed level.

(1)At first, adjust only with the two front screws. Then, turn the right rear level screwanticlockwise to withdraw its leg completely.

While adjusting level screws and observing the bubble, gently press the left front corner of the balance so that both front level screw feet are touching the table surface.

(2)Bubble moves to the highest position. Therefore, adjust level screws so that the balance main body is lowered in the direction of the bubble.

Case 1: Right front of the balance is too high. Turn right front level screw anticlockwise so that the bubble moves towards center.

Case 2: Front of the balance is too low. Turn both front level screws clockwise so that the bubble moves towards center.

(3)When the bubble has come to the center of the red circle, turn the right rear level screw clockwise until its foot softly touches the table surface. Verify the balance sits stable with four feet.

5 Install the pan. With small pan model with minimum display of 0.001g, the standard windbreak is also installed here.

a.Large pan model

(1)Insert the four pan supporter caps into the holes in the top of the balance.

(2)Next, align the large pan windbreak with the frame and set in place

(3)Lastly, set the pan so that the positioners on the back of the pan precisely align with the pan supporter caps as shown in the figure.

Note

Using a verified balance as a legal measuring instrument in using region:

Legal regulations require a verified balance be sealed. This control seal is a self-destructive adhesive label. This seal is irreparably damaged invalidating the verification, if you attempt to remove it. The balance must then be reverified before it is used for legal measurements.

2.4 Turning on the Power

1 Insert the AC adapter plug into the DC IN connector on the back of the balance.

2 Insert the AC adapter into the power source. The balance self-check is activated and the following messages are displayed in the order indicated.

First, the software version number is displayed. (Balance self-check display)

[5.00:00]→[CHE 5]→[CHE 4]→ [CHE 3]

→[CHE 2]→[CHE 1]→[CHE 0]→ prompting all the symbols and segments →[oFF]

* e.g. of the version number

([CHE 5] and [CHE 4] are not displayed for the UPY Series)

3 Press [POWER] key.

All the symbols and segments prompt and then the display changes to indicate the gram-display. The backlight is illuminated.

Note

If display all mode (→14.4) is selected, the balance will stop in the display all state.

Press the [O/T] key afterwards to switch to g display.

*The actual AC adapter shape may be different.

2.5 Span Calibration

Note

Using a verified balance as a legal measuring instrument in using region:

Span calibration must be performed once the balance is installed and before using the balance as a legal measuring instrument in using region. Span calibration must be performed with the internal calibration weight to

maintain the verification valid. The balance must be connected to power and warmed up for at least 2 hours prior to span calibration and use as a legal measuring instrument.

It is necessary to calibrate the balance after it is moved.

Verify that the balance is stable before performing the span calibration. To achieve a very stable state, ensure that the balance has been turned on with the gram-display for at least one hour, that the temperature is constant, that there are no breezes or vibrations and that the balance is in an area isolated from the normal traffic flow.

Note

When carrying out span calibration, it is necessary to make sure the balance is as stable as possible. In order to ensure this stability, turn the power to the g display for at least 1 hour and allow the temperature of the balance to stabilize after installation, before carrying out calibration.

UPX Series

[Span Calibration Using the Builtin Weight]

1 Verify that the balance is in gram-display and that the pan is empty.

2 Press the [CAL] key once. “i-CAL” is displayed.

3 Press the [O/T] key.

After [i-CAL3] ~ [i-CAL 1] , [SEt] , [CAL End]are displayed indicating the completion of span calibration, the gram-display will appear.

This is the standard calibration type. Refer to " 7 for Calibration".
