MBS Series Precision Balance
Thank you for purchasing the Model MBS precision balance. Please read all operating
instructions carefully before using and note the following items to ensure accurate
readings.
1.0 Description
The MBS balances use a high precision load cell and microcomputer for
l
simple operation with accurate, stable weight readings displayed on the large
liquid crystal display.
This balance is an excellent choice for laboratory use and educational
l
applications, however, it is not recommended for use in production lines, food
preparation areas or any other environment where high heat, cold, humidity
or vibration are present.
Do not overload the balance. This will damage the load cell and void the
l
warranty.
Inspect the platter, draft shield and housing regularly for damage.
l
Refer to the troubleshooting chart at the end of this manual for more details.
l
Do not attempt to repair the balance if you have a problem. Contact your
l
local Salter Brecknell representative.
