6  Unpacking, Setup and Commissioning 

6.1  Installation Site, Location of Use 

The balances are designed in a way that reliable weighing results are achieved in 
common conditions of use.  
You will work accurately and fast, if you select the right location for your balance. 
 

Therefore, observe the following for the installation site: 

 

  Place the balance on a firm, level surface; 

  Avoid extreme heat as well as temperature fluctuation caused by installing next to 

a radiator or in the direct sunlight; 

  Protect the balance against direct draughts due to open windows and doors; 

  Avoid jarring during weighing; 

  Protect the balance against high humidity, vapors and dust; 

  Do not expose the device to extreme dampness for longer periods of time. Non-

permitted condensation (condensation of air humidity on the appliance) may 
occur if a cold appliance is taken to a considerably warmer environment. In this 
case, acclimatize the disconnected appliance for ca. 2 hours at room 
temperature. 

  Avoid  static  charging  of  the  material  to  be  weighed,  weighing  container  and 

windshield. 

 
Major display deviations (incorrect weighing results) may be experienced should 
electromagnetic fields (e.g. due to mobile phones or radio equipment), static 
electricity accumulations or instable power supply occur. Change location or remove 
source of interference.  

6.2  Unpacking  

Carefully  remove  the  balance  from  the  packaging,  remove  plastic  cover  and  setup 

balance at the intended workstation. 

6.2.1  Placing  

The balance must be installed in a way that the weighing plate is exactly in horizontal 

position.
