Auto-Centering Pan（AX-MC10K/30KPAN）
Instruction manual
Read this manual thoroughly before using the Auto-Centering Pan and keep it at hand
for future reference.
1. Introduction
The auto-centering pans are used with the MC series Mass Comparator Balances,
the AX-MC10KPAN with the MC-10K and the AX-MC30KPAN with the MC-30K. The
balance can achieve more precise weighing, by using the auto-centering pan, which
aligns the center of gravity of the material to be weighed (a weight) with the pan
center automatically and reduces eccentric loading errors.
The breeze break provided with this option, when attached, reduces the influence of
external disturbances such as drafts.

4. Precautions on using the auto-centering pan
Auto-centering pan
Place the auto-centering pan guide and the breeze break on the balance, and then
place the auto-centering pan on the guide.
Note: When replacing the standard weighing pan with the auto-centering
pan, be sure to calibrate the balance before weighing.
- Do not place a weight on the edge of the auto-centering pan.
The auto-centering pan may touch the breeze break and cause the weight to fall, or
the center of gravity of the weight may not shift to the pan center and cause a
weighing error.
- Place a weight on the auto-centering pan gently.
Dropping a weight onto the auto-centering pan, may damage the surface of the pan
where it contacts the auto-centering pan guide bearings, thus affecting the smooth
centering of the pan.
