6.6 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 for the first commissioning, after each
change of location as well as in case of fluctuating environment temperature. To
receive accurate measuring values it is also recommended to adjust the balance
periodically in weighing operation.
+
Prepare the required adjustment weight.
The adjustment should be made with the recommended adjustment weight
(see chap. 1 "Technical data"). Adjustment is also possible with the weights
of other nominal values (see table 13.3), but not the optimum for measuring
technique.
+
Observe stable environmental conditions.
+
A warming up time (see chapter 1) is required for stabilization.
+
Ensure that there are no objects on the weighing pan.
Procedure:
EMB 200-3V as an example.
1. Start balance by pressing .
2. Press and hold down longer, the display shows "CAL" briefly. Then the
display shows the exact size of the adjustment weight (See chapter 13.3).

3. During this display, set the adjustment weight in the middle of the weighing
plate
