Care and Maintenance
Service
Regular servicing by a Sartorius technician will extend
the service life of your balance and ensure its contin-
ued weighing accuracy. Sartorius can offer you service
contracts, with your choice of regular maintenance
intervals ranging from 1 month to 2 years. The opti-
mum maintenance interval depends on the operating
conditions at the place of installation and on the
individual tolerance requirements.
Repairs
Repair work must be performed by trained service
technicians. Any attempt by untrained persons to per-
form repairs may lead to hazards for the user.
Cleaning
G
Unplug the AC adapter from the wall outlet (mains
supply). If you have an interface cable connected to
the balance port, unplug it from the port,
G
Clean the balance using a piece of cloth which has
been wet with a mild detergent (soap)
G
After cleaning, wipe down the balance with
a soft, dry cloth.
Removing and Cleaning the Weighing Pan:
G
Lift up and remove the weighing pan together with
the pan support by gripping them from under the
shield ring. Make sure that you do not damage the
weighing system in doing so.
!
Make sure that no liquid enters the balance housing.
!
Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents (solvents or
similar agents).
Cleaning Stainless Steel Surfaces
Clean all stainless steel parts regularly. Remove the
stainless steel weighing pan and thoroughly clean it
separately. Use a damp cloth or sponge to clean any
stainless steel parts on the balance. Only use commer-
cially available household cleaning agent that is suit-
able for use on stainless steel. Clean stainless steel
surfaces by wiping them down. Then rinse thoroughly,
making sure to remove all residues. Afterwards, allow
the balance to dry. If desired, you can apply oil to the
cleaned surfaces as additional protection.
Solvents are permitted for use only on stainless steel
parts.
