Care and Maintenance
Servicing
Regular servicing by a Minebea Intec technician will extend the service life of
your weighing platform and ensure its continued weighing accuracy. Minebea
Intec can offer you service contracts, with your choice of regular maintenance
intervals ranging from 1 month to 2 years.
Cleaning
Before cleaning the weighing platform, unplug it from the power supply
(disconnect the AC adapter).
To clean the weighing platform when it has been exposed to dry ambient
conditions:
- Use a piece of cloth wet with a commercially available cleaning agent to wipe
down the weighing platform
To clean the weighing platform when it has been in a wet environment:
- Use a commercially available cleaning agent and a gentle, low-pressure jet of
water to hose down the platform afterwards
The weighing platform is splash-proof according to IP54.
However, pressurized water (e.g., strong jets of water using a hose or high-
pressure cleaning equipment) is not allowed for cleaning the IP54-protected
weighing platform according to DIN VDE 0470 T1 and EN 60529.
Never use concentrated acids, bases, solvents or pure alcohol to clean the
weighing platform!
To clean the weighing platform exposed to a corrosive environment:
- Regularly remove all traces of corrosive substances from the platform
- Follow the manufacturer‘s directions provided for the particular disinfectants
and cleaning agents you use to clean the weighing platform
Important Note
If the water that you use to clean the weighing platform is too hot or cold,
the difference in temperature between the water and the platform can cause
condensation within the platform (according to VDE 0470/EN 60529). This
condensation may cause the weighing platform to malfunction.
