4 Basic Information (General)

4.1 Proper use

The display unit acquired by you is used in combination with a weighing plate and
serves to determine the weighing value of material to be weighed. It is intended to be
used as a "non-automatic weighing system", i.e. the material to be weighed is manually
and carefully placed in the center of the weighing plate. As soon as a stable weighing
value is reached, the weighing value can be read.

4.2 Improper Use

Our balances are non-automatic balances and not provided for use in dynamic
weighing processes. However, the balances can also be used for dynamic weighing
processes after verifying their individual operative range, and here especially the
accuracy requirements of the application.
Do not leave permanent load on the weighing pan. This may damage the measuring
system.
Impacts and overloading exceeding the stated maximum load (max) of the balance,
minus a possibly existing tare load, must be strictly avoided. Balance may be
damage by this.
Never operate the balance in explosive environment. The serial version is not
explosion protected.
The structure of the balance may not be modified. This may lead to incorrect
weighing results, safety-related faults and destruction of the balance.
The balance may only be used according to the described conditions. Other areas of
use must be released by KERN in writing.
