any wires that are assigned differently.
The operator shall be solely responsible
for any damage or injuries that occur
when using cables not supplied by

questions, please contact your supplier or
Sartorius Customer Service for informa-
tion on the legal regulations applicable in
your country. The scale must be installed

due to damage), turn it off and lock it in
a secure place or otherwise prevent use of
the equipment for the time being. Adhere
to the accident prevention regulations
and inform the operators accordingly.

Always make sure the equipment 
is disconnected from AC power before
performing any installation, cleaning,
maintenance or repair work on the scale.
To avoid forfeiture of all claims under the
manufacturer’s warranty, all repair and
maintenance work must be performed by
authorized Sartorius service technicians.

– All other cables connecting the weighing

equipment and peripheral devices, as well
as the wiring inside the devices, are cased
in PVC materials. Chemicals that corrode
these materials must be kept away from
these cables.

– Never use a hammer to close the lid of a

paint can while it is still on the weighing
pan. Otherwise, you will damage the
weighing system.
