Calibration/Span Adjustment - Sartorius Element Series Operating Instructions Manual

Calibration/Span Adjustment

Calibration is recommended after initial installation and each time the balance/scale
is moved.
Features
Calibration/adjustment can be
performed only when:
– there is no load on the balance/scale,
– the balance/scale is zeroed, and
– the internal signal is stable.
If these conditions are not met, an error
message is displayed.
Example: Calibrate/adjust span of the balance
