7 Unpacking, Setup and Commissioning
7.1 Installation Site, Location of Use
The balances are designed in a way that reliable weighing results are achieved in
common conditions of use.
You will work accurately and fast, if you select the right location for your balance.
Therefore, observe the following for the installation site:
•
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, vapors and dust;
•
Do not expose the device to extreme dampness for longer periods of time.
Non-permitted condensation (condensation of air humidity on the appliance)
may occur if a cold appliance is taken to a considerably warmer environment.
In this case, acclimatize the disconnected appliance for ca. 2 hours at room
temperature.
•
Avoid static charging of the material to be weighed, weighing container and
windshield.
If electro-magnetic fields or static charge occur, or if the power supply is unstable
major deviations on the display (incorrect weighing results) are possible. In that case,
the location must be changed.
•
The floor at the installation site must be able to carry safely the weight of the
maximally loaded scales at the resting points.
•
The installation site must be completely even in order to ensure a horizontal
position.
