4 Fundamental safety information
4.1
Observe the information in the operating instructions
Please read the operating instructions carefully before erecting and commissioning, even if you already have
experience with KERN balances.
4.2
Staff training
The device may only be operated and looked after by trained members of staff.
5 Transport and storage
5.1
Acceptance check
Please check the packaging immediately upon delivery and the device during unpacking for any visible signs
of external damage.
In the case of visible damages please obtain a signature from the bearer to serve as confirmation of dam-
age. Do not make alterations to the goods and packaging, do not remove any consignment parts. Report
the damage to the parcel service immediately in writing ( within 24 hours).
5.2
Packaging
Please retain all parts of the original packaging in case it should be necessary to return items at any time.
Only the original packaging should be used for return consignments.
Before despatch, disconnect all attached cables and loose/movable parts, remove weighing plate.
Apply any intended transport security devices. Secure all parts, e.g. glass windshield, weighing plate, power
unit etc., to prevent slipping and damage.
6 Unpacking, installation and commissioning
6.1
Place of installation, place of use
The balance is constructed in such a way that reliable weighing results can be achieved under normal appli-
cation conditions.
By selecting the correct location for your balance, you will be able to work quickly and precisely.
Therefore please observe the following at the place of installation:
-
Place the balance on a firm, level surface;
-
Avoid extreme heat as well as temperature fluctuation caused by installing next to a radiator or in the
direct sunlight;
-
Protect the balance against direct draughts due to open windows and doors;
-
Avoid jarring during weighing;
-
Protect the balance against high humidity, vapours and dust;
-
Do not expose the device to extreme dampness for longer periods of time. Inadmissible bedewing
(condensation of air moisture on the device) can occur if a cold device is taken into a significantly
warmer environment. In this case, please acclimatise the device for approx. 2 hours at room tem-
perature after it has been disconnected from the mains.
-
Avoid static charging of the material to be weighed, weighing container and windshield.
Major display deviations (incorrect weighing results) are possible if electromagnetic fields occur as well as
due to static charging and instable power supply. It is then necessary to change the location.
