Choose a location that is not subject

Conditioning the Balance/Scale
Moisture in the air can condense on
cold surfaces whenever the equipment
is moved to a substantially warmer
place. To avoid the effects of condensa-
tion, condition the weighing instrument
for 2 hours at room temperature,
leaving it unplugged from AC power.
Seal on Balances/Scales Verified for
Use in Legal Metrology in the EU*:
EU legislation requires that a control
seal be affixed to verified balances/scales
of accuracy class
K
. The control seal
consists of a sticker with the “Sartorius”
logo. If the seal is broken, the verifica-
tion becomes null and void and the
balance/scale must be re-verified.
