    3. PRECAUTIONS To get the optimum performance from the balance and acquire accurate weighing data, note the following: 3-1 Before Use Install the balance in an environment where the temperature and humidity are not excessive. The best operating temperature is about 20°C / 68°F at about 50% relative humidity.
  • Page 11: During Use

    3-2 During Use Discharge static electricity from the material to be weighed (hereinafter referred to as sample). When a sample could have a static charge, the weighing data is influenced. Ground the balance and try the following: Eliminate the static electricity by AD-1683 as an accessory. Or try to keep the ambient humidity above 45%RH.
  • Page 12: After Use

    3-3 After Use Avoid mechanical shock to the balance. Do not disassemble the balance. Contact the local A&D dealer if the balance needs service or repair. Do not use organic solvents to clean the balance. Clean the balance with a lint free cloth that is moistened with warm water and a mild detergent.

(The decimal point position balance displays Container depends on the balance model.) Sample 2 Place a sample on the pan or in the container.
  • Page 20: Counting Mode (Pc)

    6-2 Counting Mode (PC) This is the mode to determine the number of objects in a sample based on the standard sample unit mass. Unit mass means the mass of one sample. The smaller the variables in each sample unit mass is, the more accurate the counting will be.
  • Page 21 Notes If the balance judges that the mass of the samples is too light and is not adequate to be used as the unit mass, it displays lo . Do not use the samples. If the balance judges that the mass of the samples is too light to aquire accurate weighing, it displays an error requiring the addition of more samples to the specified number.
  • Page 22: Percent Mode (Pct)

    6-3 Percent Mode (Pct) This is the mode to display the weight value in percentage compared to a 100% reference mass and is used for target weighing or checking the sample variable.
