Care And Maintenance - Sartorius CAPXS Série Mode D'emploi

Care and Maintenance

Cleaning
$ Unplug the weighing instrument from the AC power before cleaning.
Remove dust from the weighing platform regularly (see EC type-examination certificate)
$ If the weighing instrument is in a dry room, use a damp cloth to wipe down the weighing plat-
form. You can use common household cleaning agents. Follow the manufacturer's instructions
for the cleaning agent.
$ The leveling feet are covered with rubber buffers. In hazardous areas/locations, these must be
cleaned using only a damp cloth. This prevents build-up of static electricity.
!Never use concentrated acids, bases, solvents or pure alcohol to clean the weighing platform.
$ To clean the weighing platform in a wet area, wash it down using a gentle stream of water (60°C
max.) sprayed over the top of the load plate.
!Do not use high-pressure cleaning equipment to clean the weighing platform.
> If the water that you use to clean the weighing platform is too hot or too cold, the difference in
temperature between the water and the weighing platform can cause condensation within the
weighing platform. This condensation may cause the weighing platform to malfunction.
$ If the scale is installed in a pit, make sure that no debris builds up in the crevices between the pit
and the platform, to prevent weighing errors.
$ Regularly remove debris from the bottom of the pit.
Cleaning the Inside of the Weighing Platform
$ To clean the inside of the weighing platform, remove the load plate.
Be especially careful when removing the load plate from scales of 1000 x 1000 mm or larger.
!Please follow the safety instructions.
$ Use compressed air to blow debris out of the inside of the scale or flush out using a gentle stream
of water (60°C max.). Make sure that no debris builds up in the gap between the load receptor
and the fastening plate, to avoid compromising the overload protection.
Corrosive Environment
$ Remove all traces of corrosive substances from the weighing platform on a regular basis.
Instructions for Recycling the Packaging
If you no longer need the packaging after successful installation of the equipment, you should
return it for recycling, as it is a valuable source of secondary raw material. Sartorius products are
packaged to ensure safe shipment using environmentally friendly materials. For information on
recycling options, including recycling of old weighing equipment, contact your municipal waste
disposal center or local recycling depot. Make sure you remove the batteries before disposing
of the equipment. Rechargeable batteries are toxic waste and as such may not be disposed of with
normal household waste. Contact your municipal waste disposal center or local recycling depot
for details on the proper disposal of batteries.
Model-specific Information: Serial Number Coding
The month and year of manufacture are encoded in the serial number as follows:
Y M M x x x x x
Y= Year:
1 2000–2006
2 2007–2013
3 2014–2020
4 2021–2027
5 2028–2034
6 2035–2041
7 2042–2048
8 2049–2055
9 2056–2062
The first digit represents a 7-year period as indicated in the table above. The next 2 digits repre-
sent the month. The months are numbered consecutively, starting with 13, over the entire 7-year
period. Thus the number representing the month also indicates the specific year of manufacture.
2000 13–24
2001 25–26
...
Example:
113xxxxx -> January 2000
The individual devices are numbered consecutively in the last 5 digits, starting from 00000 again
at the beginning of each month.
