3  Basic Information (General) 

3.1  Proper use 

The balance you purchased is intended to determine the weighing value of material 
to  be  weighed.  It  is  intended  to  be  used  as  a 

“non-automatic“  balance,  i.e.  the 

material to be weighed is manually and carefully placed in the centre of the weighing 
plate. As soon as a stable weighing value is reached the weighing value can be read. 
 

3.2  Improper Use 

Do  not  use  balance  for  dynamic  weighing.  In  the  event  that  small  quantities  are 
removed  or  added  to  the  material  to  be  weighed,  incorrect  weighing  results  can  be 
displayed  due  to  the  “stability  compensation“  in  the  balance.  (Example:  Slowly 
draining fluids from a container on the balance.)  
Do  not  leave  permanent  load  on  the  weighing  plate.  This  may  damage  the 
measuring system. 
Impacts and overloading exceeding the stated maximum load (max) of the balance, 
minus  a  possibly  existing  tare  load,  must  be  strictly  avoided.  Balance  may  be 
damage by this. 
Never operate balance in explosive environment. The serial version is not explosion 
protected. 
The  structure  of  the  balance  may  not  be  modified.  This  may  lead  to  incorrect 
weighing results, safety-related faults and destruction of the balance. 
The balance may only be used according to the described conditions. Other areas of 
use must be released by KERN in writing. 
 

3.3  Warranty 

 
Warranty claims shall be voided in case  

 

  Our conditions in the operation manual are ignored 

  The appliance is used outside the described uses 

  The appliance is modified or opened 

  mechanical damage and damage caused by media, liquids, 

Natural wear and tear 

  The appliance is improperly set up or incorrectly electrically connected 

  The measuring system is overloaded
