6.7 Adjustment
As the acceleration value due to gravity is not the same at every location on earth,
each balance must be coordinated - in compliance with the underlying physical
weighing principle - to the existing acceleration due to gravity at its place of location
(only if the balance has not already been adjusted to the location in the factory).
This adjustment process must be carried out for the first commissioning, after each
change of location as well as in case of fluctuating environment temperature.
To receive accurate measuring values it is also recommended to adjust the balance
periodically in weighing operation.
The adjustment is locked for verified balances. Carrying out adjustment
requires that the seal is destroyed and the adjusting switch is confirmed in
step 3 when turning on the scale. For position of adjusting switch, see chpt.
6.8.1
Attention:
After destruction of the seal the balance must be re-verified by an
authorised agency and a new verification wire/seal mark fitted before it can
be reused for applications subject to verification.
Procedure when adjusting:
Observe stable environmental conditions. A warming up time (see chapter 1) is
required for stabilization. Ensure that there are no objects on the weighing plate.
Arrange adjustment weight, details see chap.1 „Technical data"
1. Switch-on balance and during the selftest press
