Operating instructions

Unpacking and setting up the balance

Make sure that the weighing chamber cover (F) is closed, then place the protective cover

(G) over the weighing cell.

Adjust the protective cover vertically: There are 4 screws (H) with lock nuts (I) on the

inside of the protective cover. Adjust and secure these screws so that:

– The protective cover is totally horizontal and does not rock.

– There is a vertical air gap the thickness of a standard sheet of writing paper between

the protective cover and the weighing chamber cover. This ensures that the protective

cover does not rest on the weighing cell and that the weighing cell can perform its

function (draft shield, protection against contact and protection against heat radiation

from the operator).

Place the terminal in position and set the reading angle according to Chapter 2.6 of

the operating instructions for AX and MX/UMX balances.

Power supply: Connect the control unit to the power supply (for details see operating

instructions for AX and MX/UMX balances). Following connection to the power supply, the

balance starts automatically and is then ready to operate.

2.5 Installation of the optical ionizer

This chapter must only be read if you have ordered the optional ionizer (for ordering information, see Chapter 5). The optional ionizer

eliminates the static charge from weighing samples. The ionizer consists of a power supply unit (transformer for generating the high voltage,

available for various power supply voltages) and two electrodes with high-voltage cable. These items must be ordered separately. For

installation and operation of the ionizer, please also observe all the information provided in the instructions supplied with the device.

Install the ionizer as follows:

Make sure that the weighing chamber cover is closed, then remove the protective

cover of the weighing cell.

Loosen the two screws (A) of the fastening strip inside the protective cover.

Remove the two plugs in the openings (B) by withdrawing them towards the front.

Insert the electrode cable (C) through the two holes at the back into the protective cover.
