Care and Maintenance
Servicing
Regular servicing by a Sartorius service technician
will extend the service life of your balance and insure
its continued weighing accuracy. Sartorius can
offer you service contracts with your choice of regular
maintenance intervals ranging from1month to 2 years.
Cleaning
Before cleaning the balance, unplug the AC adapter
from the wall outlet (mains supply).
Please do not use any aggressive cleaning agents
(solvents or similar agents). Instead, use a piece of cloth
which has been wet with a mild detergent (soap).
If your balance has a round glass draft shield,
avoid generating static electricity by wiping and
rubbing the glass. After cleaning, decharge the round
glass draft shield to eliminate static electricity, for
example, by wiping off all surfaces with a damp and
grounded piece of cloth.
Make sure that no liquid enters the balance housing.
After cleaning, wipe down the balance with a soft,
dry piece of cloth.
Changing the Dust Cover for LC Series Balances
If the dust cover is dirty, change it as follows:
– for round weighing pans (with or without a
round glass draft shield)
Remove the following parts from the balance:
– Draft shield lid
(24)
– Glass cylinder
(25)
– Weighing pan
(1)
– Pan support disk
(26)
Turn the centering disk
(27)
or the draft shield base
plate
(4)
until it snaps out of place and lift it off.
Then exchange the old dust cover for the new one.
Place the centering disk or the draft shield base plate
on the balance. Turn the disk or plate clockwise
until it snaps into place.
