Instruction Manual
INTRODUCTION
This manual contains installation, operation and maintenance instructions for the
Ohaus Heavy Duty Solution Balance, Model 1119D. To ensure proper operation of
the Balance, please read this manual completely.
DESCRIPTION
The Model 1119D Heavy Duty Solution Balance is a dual beam mechanical balance
with a maximum capacity of 20 kilograms and a readability of 1 gram. A dual-faced
Indicator Plate allows front and rear weighing. The base and beam are constructed
of cast aluminum and finished with a durable epoxy powder coating which is
resistant to commonly used acids. Many other components including the large
platform are made of stainless steel for corrosion resistance. A large lockable tare
allows for balancing of containers up to 2270 grams (5 Lbs). Fine balancing may be
accomplished using the small spring loaded tare poise. Magnetic damping speeds
up the weighing process. Readings up to 1100 grams may be taken directly off the
two beams and the slotted mass set provided extends the weighing capacity to 20
kilograms.
