3. INSTALLATION

Choosing the installation place

The measuring performance of the balance is greatly influenced by the environment
where it is installed.
Observe the following points to ensure a safe and accurate weighing.

Caution

Do not use the balance anywhere exposed to explosive, combustible or corrosive

gases.
This could cause fire or other kind of serious problems.

5
 Use the correct power supply and voltage with the balance.
Using an incorrect power supply or voltage with the balance will lead to fire or trouble
with the balance.
Note also that if the power supply or voltage is unstable or if the power supply capacity is
insufficient, it will not be possible to obtain satisfactory performance from the balance.

Avoid locations where the balance will be exposed to any of the

following situations:
¤ Air flow from an air conditioner, ventilator, door or window.

¤ Extreme temperature changes

¤ Vibration from surroundings or nearby equipments

6
 ¤ Direct sunlight

¤ Dust, electromagnetic waves or a magnetic field

Install the balance on a strong and stable flat table or floor.

Placing the balance in an unstable site could lead to troubles with the balance or
injury to users.
When selecting the installation site, take into account the combined weight of the
balance and the item to be weighed.

Unpacking and delivery inspection

Check that all of the items indicated below are included in the package, and that
nothing has been damaged:
- Balance
- Pan
- Instruction manual
- Adapter

In case the balance or any component presents any damage due to transport tell it
immediately to your transport agent or dealer so that they can make the claims in the
correct time limit.

Turning the power on

1. Insert the plug of the power cord into the DC connector at the back of the
balance.
2. Unlock the rechargeable battery by the switch at the bottom of the balance.

Note: if you are not using the balance for a long period of time lock the battery to
preserve it in good conditions.

3. Connect the power cord to the power outlet.

4. Press “ON”; The display will automatically light on and go through the changes
indicated below:

0.00g

Warming up

Before performing calibration on the balance or measuring its accuracy it is necessary

to ensure that the balance is in a stable state.
For balance stabilization it is important that environmental temperature is stable.
Leave the balance on and in weighing mode for at least 15-30 minutes before
performing calibration; this is called “warming up”.

Calibration
Perform balance calibration each time after moving it or temperature changes a lot or
humidity changes a lot. Weights are required for external calibration balances.
Necessary calibration weight depending on maximum capacity of the balance
Max. capacity Calibration weight
300 g 200 g
500 g 500 g
1000 g 500 g
2000 g 1000 g
3000 g 2000 g
5000 g 2000 g
6000 g 5000 g

Before performing calibration, warm up the balance in advance.

1. Keep pressed “CAL” key; The necessary weight value will flash.
2. Place the calibration weight on the pan; Wait until the flashing weight value
display changes to a steady state (e.g. 500.00 g).

8
3. Remove the weight of the pan; “0.00” will be displayed and the balance will return
to the weighing mode.

Linearity Calibration
If tolerance (error) after calibration is too high, then it is necessary to make linearity
calibration. For this, proceed as follows:
1. Long press CAL key when the number flashes, and long press CAL again.
2. The necessary weight value will flash, and put the weight accordingly until the
dispslay shows 0.00g.

4. USE OF THE BALANCE

Weighing function

1. Enter the weighing mode

2. Place a container on the pan
3. Once the weight on display has stabilized, press “TARE” key; value on display will
change to 0.00.
4. Place the sample to be weighed in the container.
5. Once the value on display has stabilized, read the display.
Piece counting function

1. Long Press “UNIT/COU” key to enter in piece counting mode; The display will
show 10-20-50-100 in circle.
2. Place the corresponding sample of pieces on the pan. (e.g. put 10pcs sample on
the pan, when the display shows 10, press “UNIT/COU” to save the data.) Then it
works.
Note: In counting mode, the weight of the pieces must be even and the weight of
an individual piece should not be less than the readability of the balance.
5. To return to weighing mode, press “UNIT/COU” key.
Weighing unit selection
Balance can perform weighing in different measuring units.
In weighing mode press repeatedly “UNIT” key to consecutively display all available
weighing units and select the desired one.
The weighing unit by default is g.
Overload
The weight of the sample cannot exceed the rated maximum capacity of the balance;
when exceeded, the upper line “----OL-----“ will be displayed. Remove the sample
immediately to avoid damages in the balance.
Energy saving mode
Press “ON/OFF” key, before entering the weight mode, Double press “TARE” key,
then press “UNIT/COU” key to enter the setting mode. It will show “01-diu”. Press

9
“TARE” to until it shows “07-LED”, press “CAL” enter the setting for backlight saving
mode. And press “UNIT/COU” to choose below mode.
- 0: display backlit is off
- 1: backlit no off.
- 2: backlit of display will be off after 15 seconds of no use.
To exit energy saving mode, press CAL key to confirm the setting. And turn off the
balance to enter new mode.

5. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

To get the best results and a higher duration of the balance it is essential
to follow the processes of use.

Note: All the processes of use mentioned below will not have any value unless
you keep a continued and careful maintenance.

• Please follow the processes of use of this manual.

• This manual should be available for all users of this equipment.
• Prevent the balance from sudden movements and knocks, as well as from direct
sunlight or air flows. The balance is a precision instrument, you must handle it
carefully.
• The balance is supplied with an adapter. It has to be plugged to an earth
connection and the socket should be handy and ready to unplug the equipment in
case of emergency.
• Never unplug the adapter by pulling the wire, do it from the base.
• Never use the balance in a wedged location as for example a shelf.
• Never use sharp objects as pens, etc… to press the buttons of the control panel;
only use your fingers.
• Never place on the pan an object heavier than the maximum capacity of the
balance, the sensor could be damaged.
• Neither submerge the balance nor spill liquids on it.
• When you are not using the balance for a long period of time, lock the
rechargeable battery.
• If any liquid comes into contact with the electric parts of the balance please do
immediately disconnect it from the net and send it to the technical service, as
soon as possible, for its checking and adjustment.
• Always use original components and supplies. Other devices can be similar but
they can damage the equipment.

10
Cleaning
• Never use scourers or substances that can grate for cleaning metallic parts such
as stainless steel, aluminium, coatings, etc. as they damage the balance and
produce an early ageing of the equipment.
• Use a fluff-free cloth dampened with soaped water that does not contain
abrasives.

ATTENTION!! IF EQUIPMENTS ARE NOT PROPERLY CLEAN AND DISINFECTED

THEY WOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO REPAIR BY OUR TECHNICAL SERVICE.
