Calibration/Adjustment - Sartorius Economy Series Operating Instructions Manual

Calibration/Adjustment

Purpose
Calibration is the determination of the difference
between the weight readout and the true weight
(mass) of a sample. Calibration does not entail
making any changes within the scale. Adjustment is
the correction of this difference between the
measured value displayed and the true weight
(mass) of the sample, or the reduction of the
difference to an allowable level within the maximum
permissible error limits.
Available Features
External adjustment can only be performed when
– there is no load on the scale,
– the scale is set to zero, and
– the internal signal is stable.
If these conditions are not met, an error code
is displayed.
The weight on the scale must not differ from the
nominal weight by more than 2%.
You can use g, kg, or lb as the weight unit for
calibration (1 4)
You can block external calibration of the scale (1 5)
Factory Settings
