Care and Maintenance
Service
Regular servicing by a Sartorius
technician will extend the service life of
your scale and ensure its continued
weighing accuracy. Sartorius can offer
you service contracts, with your choice
of regular maintenance intervals rang-
ing from 1 month to 2 years. The opti-
mum maintenance interval depends on
the operating conditions at the place
of installation and on the individual
tolerance requirements.
Repairs
Repair work must be performed by
trained service technicians. Any attempt
by untrained persons to perform repairs
may lead to hazards for the user.
Cleaning
§ Unplug the AC adapter from the wall
outlet (mains supply). If you have an
interface cable connected to the
scale port, unplug it from the port.
§ Clean the scale using a piece of cloth
which has been wet with a mild deter-
gent (soap).
§ After cleaning, wipe down the scale
with a soft, dry cloth
!
Make sure that no dust or liquid enters
the scale housing.
!
Do not use any aggressive cleaning
agents (solvents or similar agents)
Cleaning Stainless Steel Surfaces
Clean all stainless steel parts regularly.
Remove the stainless steel weighing
pan and thoroughly clean it separately.
Use a damp cloth or sponge to clean
any stainless steel parts on the scale.
You can use any commercially available
household cleaning agent that is suit-
able for use on stainless steel. Clean
stainless steel surfaces by wiping them
down. Then rinse the equipment thor-
oughly, making sure to remove all
residues. Afterwards, allow the scale
to dry.
If desired, you can apply oil to the
cleaned surfaces as additional
protection.
Solvents are permitted for use only on
stainless steel parts.

Safety Inspection
If there is any indication that safe
operation of the scale is no longer
warranted:
§ Turn off the power and disconnect the
equipment from AC power immediately
> Lock the equipment in a secure place to
ensure that it cannot be used for the
time being.
Notify your nearest Sartorius Service
Center. Repair work must be performed
by trained service technicians.
We recommend having the power
supply inspected by a certified electrician
at regular intervals, according to the
checklist given below:
– Insulating resistance: > 7 megaohms
measured with a constant voltage of at
least 500 volts at a 500 K-ohm load
– Leakage current: < 0.05mA measured
with a properly calibrated multimeter
Instructions for Recycling
To ensure safe shipment, your scale has
been packaged using environmentally
friendly materials. After successful
installation of the scale, you should
return this packaging for recycling.
For information on recycling options,
including recycling of old weighing
equipment, contact your municipal
waste disposal center or local recycling
depot.
