8.1.1 P1 Calibration (adjustment)

As the acceleration value due to gravity is not the same at every location on earth,
each balance must be coordinated - in compliance with the underlying physical
weighing principle - to the existing acceleration due to gravity at its place of location (
only if the balance has not already been adjusted to the location in the factory). This
adjustment process must be carried out for the first commissioning, after each
change of location as well as in case of fluctuating environment temperature. It is
also recommendable to adjust the balance periodically during weighing operation in
order to obtain exact measured values.
Procedure for adjustment:
Observe stable environment conditions. A warming-up time of ca. 30 minutes for
stabilisation is necessary.
Important!
The sample plate should be put. During the adjustment process no objects should be
on the sample plate.
