1 Introduction Thank you for choosing a METTLER TOLEDO balance. The precision balances of the NewClassic line combine a large number of weighing possibilities with easy operation. These operating instructions apply to all balance models MS-S and MS-L in the NewClassic line. However, the different models have different charcteristics regarding equipment and performance. Special notes in the text indicate where this makes a difference to operation. 1.
2 Safety Precautions Always operate and use your balance only in accordance with the instructions contained in this manual. The instructions for setting up your new balance must be strictly observed. If the balance is not used according to these Operating Instructions, protection of the balance may be impaired and METTLER TOLEDO assumes no liability. It is not permitted to use the balance in explosive atmosphere of gases, steam, fog, dust and flammable dust (hazardous environments).

4 Setting up the Balance The balance must be disconnected from the power supply when carrying out all setup and mounting work. 4.1 Unpacking and Delivery Inspection a) Open the packaging and carefully remove all components. b) Check the delivered items. The standard scope of delivery contains the following items: Components S platform 0.1 mg 1 mg Draft shield 236 mm – 168 mm Weighing pan – Ø 90 mm – 0.
4.2 Installing the Components 6 5 Balances with readability of 0.1 mg, S platform with draft shield (236 mm) 4 Place the following components on the balance in the specified order: 3 Note: Push the side glass back as far as will go and grasp the draft shield (1) with both hands on the bars at the top. a) Turn draft shield lock (2) to position " "(unlock). b) Place draft shield on the balance. 1 2 c) Turn draft shield lock to " " (lock) and place bot tom plate (3).
Balances with readability of 10 mg, S platform – Place the following components on the balance in the specified order: 3 ● Pan support (1) 2 ● Weighing pan (2) 1 ● Draft shield element (3) C Balances with readability of 0.1 g, S platform – Place the following components on the balance in the specified order: 2 ● Pan support (1) ● Weighing pan (2) 1 C Balances with readability to 1 g, L platform – Place the weighing pan (1) on the balance.
4.3 Selecting the Location and Leveling the Balance Your balance is a precision instrument and will thank you for an optimum location with high accuracy and dependability. 4.3.1 Selecting the Location Select a stable, vibration-free position that is as horizontal as possible. The surface must be able to safely carry the weight of a fully loaded balance. Observe ambient conditions (see Technical Data). Avoid the following: ● Direct sunlight ● Powerful drafts (e.g.
Balances with S platform and readability of 10 mg and 0.1 g A a) Remove the clamps (A) for the safety feet by turning them out wards. Note: Turn the clamps (A) outwards as far as they will go (~ 90°), so that the safety feet can move freely. A b) Now level the balance by turning both leveling screws (B) until the air bubble is in the inner circle of the level indicator (see procedure above). B B c) Secure the safety feet by turning the clamps (A) inwards as far as they will go.
4.5 Battery Operation Balances with a built-in rechargeable battery can, under normal operation conditions, work independently of the AC power line for about 8 hours. Immediately the AC power supply is interrupted e.g. by withdrawing the power cord plug or if there is a power failure, the balance switches automatically to battery operation. Once the AC power supply is restored, the balance reverts automatically to AC operation.
A B A B a) Switch off the balance and remove the power cable and any interface cable from the balance. b) Remove the draft shield element (10 mg models). c) Remove the weighing pan and pan support. d) Remove the bottom plate and unlock the draft shield (models with draft shield). e) Turn the balance carefully on its side. f) Remove and retain the 2 screws (A) and the cover plate (B). The hanger is now accessible.

22 Cleaning and Service Every now and then, clean the weighing pan, draft shield element, bottom plate, draft shield (depending on the model) and housing of your balance. Your balance is made from high-quality, durable materials and can therefore be cleaned using a damp cloth or with a standard cleaning agent. To thoroughly clean the draft shield glass panels, remove the draft shield from the balance. When reinstalling the draft shield, ensure that it is in the correct position.
B C A a) Push the glass doors (A) back. a) Tilt the front glass (C) forward. b) Turn the two lock covers (B) on the front as far as they will go. b) Remove the front glass. F – Pull the top glass door (D) out from the front. E – Lift the side glass doors (E) at (F) and pull them out from the front.

23 Interface Specification 23.1 RS232C Interface Each balance is equipped with an RS232C Interface as standard for the attachment of a peripheral device (e.g. printer or computer). Schematic Item Specification Interface type Voltage interface according to EIA RS-232C/DIN66020 CCITT V24/V.28) DATA Max.
Basic information on data interchange with the balance The balance receives commands from the system and acknowledges the command with an appropriate response. Command formats Commands sent to the balance comprise one or more characters of the ASCII character set. Here, the following must be noted: ● Enter commands only in uppercase. ● The possible parameters of the command must be separated from one another and from the command name by a space (ASCII 32 dec., in this description represented as ).
