    1 Positioning the instrument 1.1 Preface Balances with resolutions 0.1mg and 0.01mg are instruments of high sensitivity and precision. To achieve reliable and accurate results it is fundamental to install the instrument in a suitable environment to meet the requirements necessary to ensure its proper functioning.

  • Page 5: Recommendations For A Correct Use Of The Instrument

    2 Recommendations for a correct use of the instrument 2.1 Preface To obtain accurate and repeatable weighing pay attention to the following. 2.2 First power on  THE FIRST TIME THAT YOU CONNECT THE BALANCE TO THE MAINS, BEFORE USE, WAIT AT LEAST 12 HOURS TO ENSURE THE WARM-UP OF THE INSTRUMENT.

  • Page 6: Care And Cleaning Of The Balance

     Pay attention to substances that can Evaporate (alcohol) or Absorb humidity (silicon gel). Because of these types of materials weight may vary constantly in one direction.  Be careful to Magnetic materials: magnetic objects will attract each other, the force that results are wrongly interpreted as a load.
