Getting Started
Setting Up the Weighing Platform
- Remove the weighing platform and load plate from the packaging
- Remove the foam material and manufacturer’s labels
- Place the load plate on the weighing platform
Leveling the Weighing Platform
Level the weighing platform at the place of installation using the leveling feet
(4) so that the air bubble is centered within the circle of the level indicator (5):
To raise the weighing platform, extend the leveling feet (turn clockwise).
To lower the weighing platform, retract the leveling feet (turn
counterclockwise).
Make sure all four feet are in contact with the surface on which the platform
stands.
Important:
- Do not perform any installation work while the equipment is connected to
power.
- Installation work that affects the IP65 protection rating must be performed
with extreme care.
- Always disconnect the equipment from power before connecting or
disconnecting the data cable.
- Failure to observe the instructions contained in this manual during
installation will result in forfeiture of all claims under the manufacturer’s
warranty.
Connecting the Weighing Platform
Please note that any person or company connecting a non-Sartorius-approved
display and control unit (such as a computer) or AC adapter to the weighing
platform shall assume all risks and responsibilities associated with this
equipment.
Use only original Sartorius AC adapters.
The connecting cable is 3 meters long (approx. 10 feet). To order an
extension cable or a customized cable, refer to the list of accessories or
contact Sartorius.
Cable Lengths:
Because you can choose whether to power the weighing platform via the
interface port of the display and control unit or using a separate AC adapter
(adapter kit required; must be installed by a Sartorius service technician),
some restrictions apply to the cable lengths permissible between components.
If you use a cable longer than 12 meters (
∼ 40 feet) between the weighing
platform and the display and control unit, each of these components must be
powered by a separate AC adapter.
