Safety Precautions
If there is any indication that safe operation of the
balance with the power supply/AC adapter
is no longer warranted, turn off the power and unplug
the equipment from AC power immediately. Lock the
equipment in a secure place to ensure that it cannot
be used for the time being.
Safe operation of the balance with the power
supply/AC adapter is no longer ensured when
– there is visible damage to the power supply
– the power supply no longer functions properly
– the power supply has been stored for a relatively
long period under unfavorable conditions
In this case, notify your nearest Sartorius Service
Center or the International Service Support Unit based
in Goettingen, Germany. Only service technicians
who have access to the required maintenance
manuals are allowed to perform maintenance and
repairwork on the equipment.
We recommend that the balance together
with the power supply be inspected by a qualified
Sartorius service technician according to the
following checklist:
– Insulation resistance > 7 megohms measured
with a constant voltage of at least 500 V at
a 500 kohm load
– Equivalent leakage current < 0.05 mA measured
by a properly calibrated multimeter
The duration and number of measurements should be
determined by a qualified Sartorius service technician
according to the particular ambient and operational
conditions for the power supply. Such inspection
should be done at least once a year.
