2  Basic Information (General) 
2.1  Intended use 
The balance you purchased is intended to determine the weighing value of material 
to be weighed.  It is intended to be used as a “non-automatic balance”, i.e. the 
material to be weighed is manually and carefully placed in the centre of the weighing 
pan. As soon as a stable weighing value is reached the weighing value can be read. 
2.2  Improper Use 
Do not use balance for dynamic weighing.  In the event that small quantities are 
removed or added to the material to be weighed, incorrect weighing results can be 
displayed due to the “stability compensation“. (Example: Slowly draining fluids from a 
container on the balance.)  
Do not leave permanent load on the weighing pan. This may damage the measuring 
system. 
Impacts and overloading exceeding the stated maximum load (max) of the balance, 
minus a possibly existing tare load, must be strictly avoided.  Balance may be 
damage by this. 
Never operate balance in explosive environment. The serial version is not explosion 
protected. 
The structure of the balance may not be modified.  This may lead to incorrect 
weighing results, safety-related faults and destruction of the balance. 
The balance may only be used according to the described conditions. Other areas of 
use must be released by KERN in writing.
