10. WEIGHING
Load the weighing pan. Read the result when
stability marker is displayed.
In order to guarantee a long-term operation, wherein correct measurements are
provided, the following principles must be adhered to:
Load the weighing pan steadily, avoid
applying mechanical shocks.
Place the loads centrally on the
weighing pan (eccentricity errors are
specified by EN 45501 standard, point
3.6.2).
In case of eccentric loading make sure
that:
a) mass of load placed close to one
of the pan edges does not exceed ½
of max capacity,
b) mass of load placed in the pan corner
does not exceed 1/3 of max capacity.
Do not apply concentrated force (total
load in one point).
Avoid side loading, in particular side
shocks.
