Leveling The Weighing Platform - Sartorius Signum 1 Operating Instruction

8
Getting Started
Connecting the Scale to AC Power
§ Check the voltage rating and the plug design.
$ The equipment is powered through the installed power cord. The power supply is
built into display and control unit, which can be operated with a supply voltage of
100 Vac to 240 Vac.
Make sure that the voltage rating printed on the manufacturer's ID label is identical
to that of your local line voltage. If the voltage specified on the label or the plug design
of the AC adapter do not match the rating or standard you use, please contact your
Sartorius office or dealer.
The power connection must be made in accordance with the regulations applicable in
your country.
To power a device of protection class 1, plug the power cord into an electrical
outlet (mains supply) that is properly installed with a protective grounding conductor
(protective earth = PE). The power plug or a different, suitable disconnecting device for
the power must be easily accessible.
Safety Precautions
If you use an electrical outlet that does not have a protective grounding conductor,
make sure to have an equivalent protective conductor installed by a certified electrician
as specified in the applicable regulations for installation in your country. Make sure
the protective grounding effect is not neutralized by use of an extension cord that lacks
a protective grounding conductor.
Warmup Time
To deliver exact results, the scale must warm up for at least 30 minutes after initial
connection to AC power or after a relatively long power outage. Only after this time will
the scale have reached the required operating temperature.
Using Equipment Verified as Legal Measuring Instruments in the EU*:
$ Make sure to allow the equipment to warm up for at least 24 hours after initial
connection to AC power or after a relatively long power outage.
Connecting a Bar Code Scanner (Accessory; Order No. YBR02FC)
Disconnect the display and control unit from AC power (unplug the AC adapter)

$ Installation:
please see "Pin Assignment Charts" in this manual (implemented via the YCC02-BR02
connecting cable or as Option M8)

Leveling the Weighing Platform

Purpose:
– To compensate for uneven areas at the place of installation
– To ensure that the equipment is placed in a perfectly horizontal position
for consistently reproducible weighing results
Always level the weighing platform again any time after it has been moved
to a different location.
§ Level the weighing platform using the four leveling feet. Turn the feet until
the air bubble is centered in the level indicator.
§ Check to ensure that all leveling feet rest securely on the work surface.
> Each of the leveling feet must support an equal load.
> Adjusting the leveling feet:
To raise the weighing platform, extend the leveling feet (turn counterclockwise).
To lower the weighing platform, retract the leveling feet (turn clockwise).
