How To Weigh Out And Make Weight Comparisons - Mettler Toledo PE200 Mode D'emploi

OPERATION: How to weigh out; how to read devations from a reference weight
It is also possible to tare out a container filled with weighing objects. Thus the weighing-in process can be reversed and it is just as feasible to weigh out objects from
a previously weighed full container.
Likewise, it is possible to tare a target weight (reference weight). This way, deviations from the reference weight can be read directly.
Weighing out
– Place container with weighing object on pan.
– Tare: Balance will now indicate zero.
– Remove material from container:
The weight of the removed material will now be
displayed with the minus sign in front.

Entering a reference weight
– Place reference weight on pan (weight piece or
sample).
– Tare: Balance will now indicate zero.
– Remove reference weight.
The reference weight will now appear in the
display with the minus sign in front.
Example: -300.0 g
Deviations from this reference weight can now be
read directly:
Determinig a deviation
– Place object that is to be compared with
reference weight on pan.
If the object is heavier, the actual deviation is indicated
on the display with the positive sign in front, because:
-300.0 g + 306.2 g = +6.2 g
If the object is lighter, the actual deviation is indicated
with the negative sign in front, because:
-300.0 g + 294.2 g = -5.8 g
