Balances/Scales with Strain Gauge Systems and with Double Lever Systems
Preparations: Place the balance/scale on a solid, level surface that is free of vibration,
e.g. a stone table. Level the balance/scale using the level indicator. Turn
the balance/scale and allow it to warm up for about 30-60 minutes,
depending on the model.
Calibrate/adjust the balance/scale on this place.
Note: Testing must be carried out according to the following Sartorius Standard
Operating Procedure for Testing WKD-037-02 and WKD-038-02. They are also
equivalent to the given adjustment data as described in this service manual.

Repeatability (Standard Deviation)
Checking by Strain Gauge Systems and Double Lever Systems
Checking the Repeatability (Standard deviation „S“)
- Refer to the service specifications (see pages 38) for the required test
weight.
- Unload the weighing pan/load plate and press t to zero the balance/scale.
- Center the test weight on the weighing pan/load plate.
- Write down the displayed value.
- Repeat this procedure five times.
- Calculate the repeatability of results from these 6 values as follows:
- Compare the calculated value with the tolerances listed in the service
specifications.
- If the result exceeds the tolerance limits, this may be due to one of the
following circumstances:

Off-center Error with Strain Gauge Systems
Checking the Off-center Error
Note: Checking the Off-center Error (see page 17).
– Replace the pan support on the strain-gauge load receptor and replace the
[Link]
upper housing, shock absorber and weighing pan/load plate.
– Check the off-center loading error and perform adjustment again if
necessary.
15
Off-center Error with Double Lever Systems
Checking the Off-Center Error
Caution: Larger errors in the off-center loading error affect the repeatability of the
weighing system!
The OIML Guideline R76-1 describes the tests for off-center loading tolerances
for square, round and even triangular weighing pans. Therefore, the test
weight should be placed on every 1/4 of the weighing pan surface.
The positions for placing test weights in triangular weighing pans are indicated
in the figures to the left.
Please refer to the sketches to the left to establish the testing points for
checking the off-center loading tolerances.
The markings should help you place the test weights in their proper positions.
16
Checking the Off-Center Error
Note: The data for the test weight and the tolerance are listed in the („Service
Specifications“ see Page 38).
5 2 – Compare the off-center loading errors with the tolerances listed in the („Ser-
vice Specifications“ see Page 38).
1 – If the off-center loading error is too large, adjust the balance so that the off-
center loading error is within the tolerances specifie

eck_re_033.eps
17
Adjusting the Off-Center Error
Note: Following adjustment of the off-center loading error, the span and
linearity must be tested and, if necessary, adjusted.
Note: The balance/scale must be opened to adjust the off-center loading error.
– The setscrews are accessible to the foil (S) through remove (see arrows).
P – Adjust both screws (P) to set the off-center loading error
(see illustrations on the left).
– To test the adjustment of the off-center loading error, close the balance/
scale and position the weighing pan/load plate on the balance/scale.
– Allow approximately 3 to 5 minutes for the balance/scale to warm up.
[Link]
– Perform the 3-point adjustment as described on page 19.
18
3-point Measurement
– Place the off-center load test weight in Position A on the weighing pan/
load plate and press t to tare.
– Place the test weight in Positions B and C and record the value displayed at

stability in each case.
- +
– Adjust only the side with the greatest deviation (absolute value) as follows:
Negative deviations:
B C
Turn the adjustment screw inwards (clockwise)
Positive deviations
Turn the adjustment screw outwards (counterclockwise)
– Change the position of each screw in small increments and measure the off-
[Link]
center loading error in Positions A, B and C after each adjustment.
– Repeat this procedure until the off-center loading error is within the
½ Turn = ca. 4 - 5 Dig. tolerance limits at all 3 positions.
1 Turn = ca. 9 - 10 Dig.
3 Turns = ca. 30 Dig. Note: After adjusting the off-center loading error, the linearity and span
must be checked and, if necessary, adjusted.
Example: At +5 Digits one 1/2
rotation to the left
19
Procedure for Adjusting the Off-Center Loading Error (Double Lever System)
Note: After calibration/adjustment of the off-center loading error, you must check the
span and linearity and adjust as required.
On models with Double Lever System without setscrews (see upper illustration
on the left) the off-center loading error should be adjusted by careful filing at
appropriately thin places on the upper guide. To avoid distorting the adjustment,
wait a few seconds after filing so that the thin sites can „cool down“.
The errors measured (see the section „Off-Center Loading Error) refer to the
position of the systems in the balance/scale.

Span adjustment
Note: There are different ways to perform the span adjustment:
– Using the „H8S“ service software on a PC or
– as described in this manual.
External Calibration/Adjustment
Configuration is as described under CAL Service mode (see page 10-11).
The adjustment routine may not be carried out until the balance/scale has
reached its operating temperature.
Anz_LIN_CAL_Menu1.eps When using balances/scales without a calibration weight, an external weight must be placed
on the balance/scale.
22
Internal Calibration/Adjustment (Only on Models with Internal Weight Switch)
Configuration is as described under CAL Service mode (see page 10-11).
The adjustment routine may not be carried out until the balance/scale has
reached its operating temperature.
When servicing balances/scales with internal calibration weights, now apply the internal weight
Anz_LIN_CAL_Menu2.eps
23
Adjusting External Linearity
Checking the Linearity
Note: The linearity must be checked according to the Standard Operating Procedure
WKD-037 or WKD-038.
- Check the linearity of the balance/scale for the entire weighing range in 4-g
steps.
- Compare the values displayed with the tolerance ranges given in the („Ser-
vice Specifications“ see Page 38).
- If the errors exceed the permissible tolerance ranges, the linearity must be
adjusted.
– After linearity has been adjusted, activate the „Close“ function in the service
software to reset the balance/scale to the SBI mode.
– Test the span and adjust if necessary (see page 22, „Span Adjustment“).
24
Linearity adjustment with external weights
Configuration is as described under CAL Service mode (see page 10-11).
The adjustment routine may not be carried out until the balance/scale has
reached its operating temperature.
Anz_LIN_CAL_Menu3.eps
Note: After test the linearity test the span and adjust if necessary (see
page 22, „Span Adjustment“).

Exchanging Printed Circuit Boards
Caution! When exchanging printed circuit boards, always make sure that
the ESD (Electric Statistical Discharge) is performed correctly.
Keep the PCB in its shipping bag until installation. Otherwise,
the components on the PCB could be destroyed.
System PCB
Note:
The ED series contains two different system PCBs: „strain gauge and EMC“.
The EMC system PCB is supplied in different variants and depends on the model.
DMS-Systemplatine [Link]
The system PCB contains the „system and analog adjustment data“.
When exchanging the system PCB, always make sure that system and analog
adjustment data have been backed up using Sartorius service software.
Afterwards, these backed-up data must be written to the new PCB. If the data
cannot be read from a defective PCB, the data must be ordered from the
Sartorius database.
EMK-Systemplatine [Link]
If they are available on the old PCB, the solder bridges for the offset must be
taken over (see picture above) with the new strain gauge system PCB.
29
Exchanging components
When exchanging components (systems with system PCB), it is not necessary to
transfer data. The data is pre-programmed on the system PCB.
After installation, the balance/scale must now be checked/adjusted:
Digital PCB
Note:
Before exchanging Digital PCBs, make sure that the data have been backed up
by running the Sartorius service software.
The Digital PCB contains the „Application and Digital data (serial number,
weighing data etc.)“.
Afterwards, these backed-up data must be written to the new PCB.
If the data cannot be read from a defective PCB, the data must be ordered
