Help:
Malfunction Possible
cause
Weight display is not
illuminated.
•
The balance is not switched on.
•
The mains supply connection has been interrupted
(mains cable not plugged in/faulty).
•
Power supply interrupted.
The weight display changes
continually
•
Draught/air movement
•
Table/floor vibrations
•
Weighing plate has contact with other objects.
•
Electromagnetic fields / static charging (choose
different location/switch off interfering device if
possible)
The weighing result is
obviously wrong or cannot
be reproduced
•
The display of the balance is not at zero
•
Adjustment is no longer correct.
•
Great fluctuations in temperature.
•
Electromagnetic fields / static charging (choose
different location/switch off interfering device if
possible)
•
The composition of the sample is not homogenous
•
The drying time is too short
•
The selected drying temperature was too high,
which is apparent from the oxidation process of the
sample. Lower temperature.
•
The sample has reached the evaporation point.
