Care and Maintenance

Service
Regular servicing by a Sartorius technician will extend
the service life of your balance/scale and ensure its
continued weighing accuracy. Sartorius can offer you
service contracts, with your choice of regular mainte-
nance intervals ranging from 1 month to 2 years.
The optimum maintenance interval depends on the
operating conditions at the place of installation and
on the individual tolerance requirements.
Repairs
Repair work must be performed by trained service
technicians. Any attempt by untrained persons to
perform repairs may lead to hazards for the user.
Cleaning
G Unplug the AC adapter from the wall outlet (mains
supply). If you have an interface cable connected to
the balance/scale port, unplug it from the port,
G Clean the balance/scale using a piece of cloth which
has been wet with a mild detergent (soap)
G After cleaning, wipe down the balance/scale with
a soft, dry cloth.
Removing and Cleaning the Weighing Pan:
G Lift up and remove the weighing pan together with
the pan support by gripping them from under the
shield ring. Make sure that you do not damage the
weighing system in doing so.
!Make sure that no liquid enters the balance/scale
housing.
!Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents (solvents or
similar agents).
Cleaning Stainless Steel Surfaces
Clean all stainless steel parts regularly. Remove the
stainless steel weighing pan and thoroughly clean it
separately. Use a damp cloth or sponge to clean any
stainless steel parts on the balance/scale. Only use
commercially available household cleaning agent that
is suitable for use on stainless steel. Clean stainless
steel surfaces by wiping them down. Then rinse thor-
oughly, making sure to remove all residues. Afterwards,
allow the balance/scale to dry. If desired, you can apply
oil to the cleaned surfaces as additional protection.
Solvents are permitted for use only on stainless steel
parts.
