Below-balance Weighing

A port for a below-balance weighing hook is located on the bottom of the balance.
Install a draft protection shield.
t
Lift cover plate out of the bottom of the balance.
When doing this, put the balance to one side and not on the weighing pan side.
Placing the balance on the weighing pan side may lead to measurement
inaccuracies and damage to the balance!
t
Attach a wire (or similar) to the sample and hang it on the notched hook.
If the below-balance weighing port is no longer being used, close the opening with
the cover plate again, so that the weighing results are not adversely affected by
drafts.
The below-balance weighing port may not be opened or used on balances used for
legal metrology.
