  • Page 3: General Description

    info@tursdaletechnicalservices.co.uk 1. General description AG series balances are destined for high accuracy weighing in laboratory practice. Balances are equipped with internal calibration system for proper accuracy control during operation. The user should also own weight standard of OIML F2 or F1 class for periodical control of the balance (weight value stated in Technical Data sheet) available for extra fee.

Preparations – working environment +33°C +18°C When choosing a location to set up the balance, remember the following rules to ensure proper working conditions and user-friendly operating: setup the balance on an even, flat surface leaving neccesary room for easy acces, maintain proper working temperature, avoid strong air drafts, vibrations, dust, big temperature changes and humidity over 90%,...
  • Page 9: Preparations - The Balance

    info@tursdaletechnicalservices.co.uk 8. Preparations – the balance 1. Take the balance and supplied accessories (a feeder, pan elements) out of the box. 2. Place the balance on a stable ground not affected by mechanical vibrations and airflows. 3. Level the balance with rotating rear legs 6 so that the air bubble in water-level 7 at the back of the balance is in the middle.
  • Page 10: Operation Principles

    info@tursdaletechnicalservices.co.uk 6. Plug a feeder to the power socket at the back of the balance. Moisture in the air may condense on the surface of the balance when transferred to the warmer environment. In this case leave the balance for at least 4 hours unplugged from the mains for conditioning to avoid wrong operating or damage of the balance.
  • Page 11: Start-Up

    info@tursdaletechnicalservices.co.uk 7. The mechanism of the balance is a precise device, sensitive to mechanical strokes and shocks. Before transportation take off the pan (move it slightly and lift it up) and the pan base and preserve from any damages. Do not overload the balance more then 20% of maximum load (Max). Do not press a pan with a hand.
