Warning and Safety Information

Read these operating instructions

thoroughly efore using your alance/

scale to prevent damage to the equip-

ment. Keep these instructions in a safe

place.

Follow the instructions elow to ensure

safe and trou le-free operation of your

alance/scale:

!Make sure that the voltage rating

printed on the AC adapter is identical

to your local line voltage

!Use only a commercially availa le

9-volt attery or rechargea le attery

!Do not use this alance/scale in a haz-

ardous area/location

– The only way to turn the power off

completely is to disconnect the AC

adapter

– Connect only Sartorius accessories and

options, as these are optimally designed

for use with your alance/scale.

– Protect the AC adapter from contact

with liquid.

Do not open the alance/scale housing.

If the seal is roken, this will result in

forfeiture of all claims under the manu-

facturer’s warranty.

Getting Started

Warranty

Do not miss out on the enefits of our

full warranty. Please contact your local

Sartorius office or dealer for further

information. Complete the warranty

registration card, if availa le indicating

the date of installation, and return the

card to your Sartorius office or dealer.

Storage and Shipping Conditions

Installation Instructions

Your alance/scale is designed to

provide relia le weighing results under

normal am ient conditions. When

choosing a location to set up your al-

ance/scale, o serve the following so

that you will e a le to work with

added speed and accuracy:

– Set up the alance/scale on a sta le,

even surface

– Avoid placing the alance/scale in close

proximity to a heater or otherwise

exposing the alance/scale to heat or

direct sunlight

– Protect the alance/scale from drafts

that come from open windows or doors

– Avoid exposing the alance/scale to

extreme vi rations during weighing

– Protect the alance/scale from

aggressive chemical vapors

– Do not expose the alance/scale to

extreme moisture over long periods

Conditioning the Balance/Scale:

Moisture in the air can condense

on the surfaces of a cold alance/

scale whenever it is rought into a

su stantially warmer place. If you

transfer the alance/scale to a

warmer area, make sure to condition it

for a out 2 hours at room temperature,

leaving it unplugged from AC power.

for operation.

Using a Non-Rechargeable/Rechargeable Battery

(not for models BL210S, BL120S, BL60S, BL150S,

BL1500S, GC503, GC103, GM1502, GM2202,

GM1202)

$A non-rechargea le or rechargea le attery is not

included with the equipment supplied

!Use only a commercially availa le non-rechargea le

or rechargea le 9-volt attery

!When using a rechargea le attery, always use an

external charger to recharge the attery

§Lay the alance/scale on its side

§Open the attery compartment:

Lift the compartment cover

§Insert the 9-volt (rechargea le) attery in the

compartment

$Make sure to connect the positive and negative

poles correctly

!All used atteries are classified as waste

that requires special handling (not “household”

waste). Dispose of rechargea le atteries in accor-

dance with the applica le special waste disposal reg-

ulations.

§Close the attery compartment:

Press down on the cover until it clicks into place

Selecting the Line Voltage ( ains Voltage)

Use the following original AC adapters for selecting

the line voltage:

– AC adapter TNG8, order no. 6971951 (universal)

– AC adapter TNG8, order no. 6971952 (for the U.K.)

●Use the switch to toggle etween 230 V and 115 V

Leveling the Balance/Scale

(only for models BL210S, BL120S, BL60S, BL150S,

BL1500S, GC503, GC103, GM1502, GM2202,

GM1202)

Level the alance/scale any time you set it up in

a new location. Use only the 2 front feet of the

alance/scale for leveling.

§Turn the 2 rear feet until they are in position

(only on models BL1500S and GM1502, GM2202

and GM1202)

§Turn the 2 front feet as shown here in the illustra-

tion until the air u le is centered in the level

indicator

> In most cases, this will require several adjustment

steps

Anti-theft Locking Device

To protect against theft, use the mounting lug on

the rear panel of the alance/scale.

●Secure the alance/scale at the place of installation,

for example with a chain or a lock

Basic Weighing Function

Available Features

– Taring the alance/scale

You can tare the alance/scale within the entire weighing range.

Preparation

§Turn on the alance/scale: Press e

§To change configurations: See the chapter entitled “Configuring the Balance/Scale”

§To load factory-set configurations: See “Configuring the Balance/Scale,” parameter 9 – 1

$To tare the alance/scale: Press t

Additional Functions

§To turn off the alance/scale: Press e

Example

Basic weighing

Menu code settings: Factory-set codes

Step Key (or instruction) Display/Printout

1. Turn on the alance/scale e

Self-test is performed

2. Place container on alance/ + 52.0 g

scale (here: 52 g)

3. Tare the alance/scale t+0.0 g

4. Place sample in container on + 150.2 g

alance/scale (here: 150.2 g)

Calibration/Adjustment*

Always cali rate/adjust the alance/scale after setting it up in a new location.

Available Features

Cali ration/adjustment can only e performed when

– there is no load on the alance/scale,

– the alance/scale is tared,

– the internal signal is sta le.

If these conditions are not met, an error message is displayed.

The weight required for cali ration/adjustment is displayed (see “Accessories” for

cali ration weights; for model GC503 see “Equipment Supplied”).

On Basiclite alances, cali ration/adjustment can e performed with any of three weight

units: g, kg**, or l (menu code 1. 4. x)

Factory setting: Grams (menu code 1. 4. 1)

Example

Cali rate the alance/scale

Menu code settings: Factory-set codes

Step Key (or instruction) Display/Printout

1. Turn on the alance/scale e

2. Tare the alance/scale t0.0 g

3. Begin cali ration t>2 sec. + 1000.0

Cali ration weight is displayed

without weight unit (here: 1000 g)

4. Place the indicated cali ration 1000.0

weight on the alance/scale

After cali ration, the cali ration + 1000.0 g

weight is displayed with wt. unit

5. Remove the cali ration weight 0.0 g

* = “Cali ration” technically means to determine the difference etween the alance/scale readout

and the actual weight on the pan to determine the accuracy.

Adjustment means to ring a alance/scale into the state of accuracy required for its use.

Therefore, “cali ration,” as used in this manual, actually means “adjustment.”

**= not on models with a reada ility of 0.1 mg

Application Programs

Counting

Purpose

With the Counting program you can determine

the num er of parts that each have approximately

equal weight.

Available Features

– Store the current weight value to have it loaded

in the operating menu:

See “Configuring the Balance/Scale”

– The average piece weight is automatically

output via the optional data interface port after ini-

tialization, if the menu code for “Printout

with data ID codes” is set

– Press vto toggle the display etween piece count

and weight

Factory Settings

Reference sample quantity: 10 (menu code 3. 3. 2)
