MLB50-3-BA-defsi-0310

3 Fundamental information (general)

3.1 Intended use

The balance you have acquired serves to determine the weighing value of the mate-

rial to be weighed. It is intended to be used as a “non-automatic“ balance, i.e. the

material to be weighed is manually and carefully placed in the centre of the weighing

plate. The weighing value can be read off after a stable weighing value has been ob-

tained.

3.2 Inappropriate use

Do not use the balance for dynamic weighing. In the event that small quantities are

removed or added to the material to be weighed, incorrect weighing results can be

displayed due to the “stability compensation“ in the balance. (Example: Slowly drain-

ing fluids from a container on the balance.)

Do not leave a permanent load on the weighing plate. This can damage the measur-

ing equipment.

Be sure to avoid impact shock and overloading the balance in excess of the pre-

scribed maximum load rating (max.), minus any possible tare weight that is already

present. This could cause damage to the balance.

Never operate the balance in hazardous locations. The series design is not explo-

sion-proof.

Structural alterations may not be made to the balance. This can lead to incorrect

weighing results, faults concerning safety regulations as well as to destruction of the

balance.

The balance may only be used in compliance with the described guidelines. Varying

areas of application/planned use must be approved by KERN in writing.

3.3 Protective measures

The moisture analyser of Safety Class 1 may only be connected through a carefully

installed socket with protective earth (PE). The protective effect must not be can-

celled out by the use of an extension lead without earth wire. For power supplies from

mains not provided with a protective earth, an equivalent protection meeting the valid

installation regulations must be provided by a qualified electrician.

3.4 Warning

Individual parts of the housing (e.g. ventilation grille ...) can become very hot during

operation. Avoid touching the apparatus except by the handles provided for this pur-

pose.

Sample materials which produce corrosive vapours (e.g. acids) can cause problems

of corrosion of components. The MLB50-3 should be used primarily for drying hy-

drous substances.

The MLB50-3 must not be used to analyse highly inflammable samples which pre-

sent an explosion hazard.

MLB50-3-BA-defsi-0310 33

3.5 Guarantee

The guarantee is not valid following

- non-observation of our guidelines in the operating instructions

- use outside the described applications

- alteration to or opening of the device

- mechanical damage and damage caused by media, liquids

- natural wear and tear

- inappropriate erection or electric installation

- overloading of the measuring equipment

3.6 Monitoring the test substances

The metrology features of the balance and any possible available adjusting weight

must be checked at regular intervals within the scope of quality assurance. For this

purpose, the answerable user must define a suitable interval as well as the nature

and scope of this check. Information is available on KERN’s home page (www.kern-

sohn.com) with regard to the monitoring of balance test substances and the test

weights required for this. Test weights and balances can be adjusted quickly and at

a reasonable price in KERN’s accredited DKD calibration laboratory (return to na-

tional normal).

4 Fundamental safety information

4.1 Observe the information in the operating instructions

Please read the operating instructions carefully before erecting and commissioning,

even if you already have experience with KERN balances.

4.2 Staff training

The device may only be operated and looked after by trained members of staff.

5 Transport and storage

5.1 Acceptance check

Please check the packaging immediately upon delivery and the device during un-

packing for any visible signs of external damage.

5.2 Packaging

Please retain all parts of the original packaging in case it should be necessary to re-

turn items at any time.

Only the original packaging should be used for return consignments.

Before despatch, disconnect all attached cables and loose/movable parts.

Apply any intended transport security devices. Secure all parts, e.g. glass windshield,

weighing plate, power unit etc., to prevent slipping and damage.

MLB50-3-BA-defsi-0310 35

6 Unpacking, installation and commissioning

6.1 Place of installation, place of use

The balance is constructed in such a way that reliable weighing results can be

achieved under normal application conditions.

By selecting the correct location for your balance, you will be able to work quickly and

precisely.

Therefore please observe the following at the place of installation:

- Place the balance on a firm, level surface;

- Avoid extreme heat as well as temperature fluctuation caused by installing

next to a radiator or in the direct sunlight;

- Protect the balance against direct draughts due to open windows and doors;

- Avoid jarring during weighing;

- Protect the balance against high humidity, vapours and dust;

- Do not expose the device to extreme dampness for longer periods of time.

Inadmissible bedewing (condensation of air moisture on the device) can occur

if a cold device is taken into a significantly warmer environment. In this case,

please acclimatise the device for approx. 2 hours at room temperature after it

has been disconnected from the mains.

- Avoid static charging of the material to be weighed, weighing container and

windshield.

Major display deviations (incorrect weighing results) are possible if electromagnetic

fields occur as well as due to static charging and instable power supply. It is then ne-

cessary to change the location.

6.1.1 Installation

Use the foot screws to level the balance until the air bubble in the bubble level is in

the prescribed circle.

6.1.2 List of items supplied

Standard accessories: Available optional accessories:

- Balance including humidity - Aluminium trays (item no.:MLB-A01)

identifier attachment - Glass fibre filter (item no.:RH-A02)

- Tray holder - Temperature calibration set

- 10 sampling trays - (item no.:MLB-A03)

- Mains cable

MLB50-3-BA-defsi-0310

6.2 Mains supply

A mains cable is used for the electric power supply.

Please check whether the balance voltage intake has been set correctly. The balance

may only be connected to the mains supply if the details on the balance (label) and

the customary on-site mains voltage are identical.

Important:

Does the designation (220 V 50 Hz) comply with the customary on-site mains voltage?

- Do not connect if there are differences in the mains voltage!

- The balance may be connected if in compliance.

6.3 Connecting peripheral equipment

The balance must be disconnected from the mains before connecting or disconnect-

ing additional equipment (printer, PC) to or from the data interface.

Only use KERN accessories and peripheral equipment with your balance. These

have been ideally coordinated to your balance.

6.4 Initial start-up

The accuracy of the balance depends on the local acceleration of the fall.

Please be sure to observe the information in the chapter on “adjusting”.

Use the main switch (above the power plug) to switch on the balance. ”tEmP “

will appear.

You have two choices:

1. Press the key, the balance will run through a ”tEst “ mode. “0.000 “ will appear

on the display screen after a few seconds. A short warm-up period of approx. 10

minutes is advisable for stabilisation purposes.

2. It is possible to start up a pre-heating process that pre-heats the weighing region

to a reasonable drying process temperature. This pre-heating process is only practi-

cal before initial drying if there are to be several consecutive drying procedures.

This procedure can be triggered whilst “tEmP “ is on the display screen by operating

the key. The balance switches automatically to weighing mode after a few

minutes.

Use the key to enter weighing mode.

MLB50-3-BA-defsi-0310 37

6.5 Adjustment

As the acceleration value due to gravity is not the same at every location on earth,

each balance must be coordinated – in compliance with the underlying physical

weighing principle - to the existing acceleration due to gravity at its place of location (

only if the balance has not already been adjusted to the location in the factory). This

adjustment process must be carried out during the initial start-up, after change in lo-

cation and variation of surrounding temperature. It is also recommendable to adjust

the balance periodically during weighing operation in order to obtain exact measured

values.

6.6 Adjusting

Using a precision weight, the accuracy of the balance can be checked at any time

and adjusted.

Method of approach when adjusting:

Ensure sound ambient conditions.

Use the main switch (above the power plug) to switch on the balance. ”tEmP “ will

appear on the display screen. Press the key, the balance will run through a ”tEst

“ mode. “0.000 “ will appear on the display screen after a few seconds. A short warm-

up period of approx. 10 minutes is advisable for stabilisation purposes.

Start up the adjusting process by operating the key. “------------- “ will appear on

the display screen for a few seconds.

The key must be pressed whilst “-------------“ is on the display screen.

Subsequently, “noCAL“ will appear on the display screen . “-LoAd-“ will appear on

the display screen after a few seconds, followed by the nominal value of the adjusting

weight.

The calibration process can be aborted during this period by pressing the key.

Now apply the adjusting weight and calibration will take place (please wait).

“ CAL “ will appear on the display screen, followed by ” rELoAd “ a few seconds

later.

Now remove the adjusting weight from the weighing plate.

The adjusting process is completed. The adjusting weight can be re-applied in order

to check the calibration. If the displayed value is not correct, adjusting should be re-

peated.
