1. INTRODUCTION
This manual describes how this balance works and how to get the most out of it in
terms of performance.
The EK-AEP
series balances have the following features:
The EK-AEP series are intrinsically safe electronic balances complying with
international standards such as IECEx and ATEX or FM requirements.
The EK-AEP
series balances can be used in areas where explosive atmospheres
are present. (For details on the intrinsically safe structure, refer to “5.
CONFORMING STANDARDS.”)
The EK-AEP series are high-resolution type electronic balances having a display
resolution of 1/12,000 or 1/30,000.
The balance has a counting function, a percent function and a comparator
function.
The LCD backlight will help with use in a dimly lighted place.
As a power source, four “AA”, “LR6” or “AM3” batteries are used.
