    1. INTRODUCTION This manual describes how this balance works and how to get the most out of it in terms of performance. The EK-i and EW-i series balances have the following features: The EK-i series are high resolution type electronic balances having a resolution of 1/6,000 ~ 1/60,000.

  • Page 7: Setting Up

    3. Calibrate your balance before use. (See “7. CALIBRATION”) Balance location To measure correctly, to keep the balance in good condition, and to prevent hazards, observe the following: Do not install the balance in locations that are subject to excessive dust, breezes, vibration, large temperature fluctuations, condensation, or that may have magnetic fields.
  • Page 8: Operation

    (About units: Only the units available will be displayed.) The display turns off except for a weighing unit and the decimal point. The balance waits for the weight data to become stable, and zero will be displayed with the ZERO mark (power-on zero).
  • Page 9: Units

    The units and the order they appear in the display are as follows: Pound Ounce (avoir)

    +2% of the weighing Stability mark capacity, it will be subtracted to zero as a tare weight. In this case the ZERO and NET marks turn on. Precautions during operation Make sure that the stability mark is on whenever reading or storing a value.
  • Page 11: Weighing Range For The Ew-I Series

    5-6. Weighing range for the EW-i series The EW-i series have three weighing ranges, and the display shows which range the weight value belongs to with the mark R1, R2 or R3. There is a function setting to select how the weighing range changes.
  • Page 12: Counting Mode (Pcs)

    5-7. Counting mode (pcs) Determines the number of objects in a sample. Calculates the reading, using the basic sample unit weight, and determines how many pieces are contained. Selecting the counting mode 1. Press the MODE key to select :pieces) Storing the sample unit 2.
  • Page 13: Percent Mode (%)

    ACAI mark will turn on. (Add more than three pieces. The mark will not turn on for the number of samples beyond the ACAI range.) 9. The ACAI mark will blink and the balance re-calculates the unit weight. Do not touch the balance or samples on the pan until the ACAI mark turns off.

    The balance transmits the weight data when the display is stable (the stability mark is on) and the data is greater than +4d (of the lowest range for EW-i series) or less than - The next output can be obtained after the display returns between -4d and +4d.

    The serial number attached to the lateral side of the balance may have a form “#Q1234567” (# = I, E and so on). In this case, the first letter “#” is ignored as a GLP data and output data has a form “Q1234567”.
  • Page 29 The calibration test mode is used to compare a calibration test weight with the calibration test data weighed by the balance. This test does not perform calibration and this mode is available even after sealing the calibration (CAL) switch. 1. Press and hold the SAMPLE and PRINT Press and hold both keys.
