Adjustment
As the acceleration value due to gravity is not the same at every location on earth,
each balance must be coordinated - in compliance with the underlying physical
weighing principle - to the existing acceleration due to gravity at its place of location
(only if the balance has not already been adjusted to the location in the factory). This
adjustment process must be carried out for the first commissioning, after each change
of location as well as in case of fluctuating environment temperature. To receive
accurate measuring values it is also recommended to adjust the balance periodically
in weighing operation.
• In the technical data you will find information about the adjustment
weights recommended by KERN & SOHN.
• Adjustment weights of different tolerance classes are allowed, but
not optimal. The accuracy of the adjustment weight must
correspond at least to or, if possible, be better than the readability
[d] of the balance.
• The highest load on the balance must not be exceeded during
adjustment.
• Info about test weights can be found on the Internet at:
http://www.kern-sohn.com
• If the value of the adjustment weight in the menu of your balance
is prescribed, you must use such a weight for adjustment.
For adjustment make sure that the environmental conditions are
stable (e.g. avoid vibration or air flow).
Please note that a warm-up time is necessary for adjustment, that
the balance is stabilized by itself. For warm-up time, please see the
technical data.
Make sure that for adjustment, only the adjustment weight is
hanging on the hook and no other load.
Errors during adjustment or the use of an incorrect adjusting weight
will result in an error message. Repeat the adjustment process in
this case.
