4.2 Energia-konexioa
Connect the universal power supply to the balance and then plug the 120V line cord into a suitable electrical outlet. The balance will perform an initial self-test upon power-up.
4.3 Berdinketa
The Cubis Balance features automatic motorized leveling. Upon initial setup or relocation, the balance will prompt for leveling or can be initiated via the touchscreen interface. Follow the on-screen instructions to ensure the balance is perfectly level for accurate measurements.
4.4 Initial Calibration (isoCAL)
The balance is equipped with isoCAL, a fully automatic internal temperature- and time-controlled calibration function. It is recommended to perform an initial isoCAL cycle after setup and before first use to ensure optimal accuracy. This can be initiated through the balance's menu system.
5. Funtzionamendu-argibideak
5.1 Ukipen-pantailaren interfazea
The balance features a 5.7" high-resolution color TFT touchscreen. This interface provides interactive guidance for managing weighing tasks, user settings, and system settings. Basic functions can also be accessed via the physical keypad buttons surrounding the screen.
5.2 Oinarrizko pisatzea
- Ensure the weighing pan is clean and empty.
- Sakatu Tara button (if applicable) or use the touchscreen to zero the balance.
- Kontu handiz jarri sample on the center of the weighing pan.
- Irakurri pantailan agertzen den pisu egonkorra.
- Kendu sample.
5.3 Advanced Applications
The Cubis Balance includes 18 built-in applications customizable for complex lab weighing tasks. Access these applications through the touchscreen menu. Exampbesteak beste:
- Unitate-bihurketa: Change between various weighing units (g, kg, ct, lb, oz, ozt, grain, dwt, mg, parts per pound, Austrian carat, Newton, lb:oz, microgram).
- SQmin Function: For minimum initial weight according to USP standards.
- Dentsitatearen zehaztapena: Calculate the density of samples.
- Formulazioa: For multi-component weighing processes.
- Zenbaketa: Determine the number of pieces based on a reference weight.
- Checkweighing: Verify if a sample's weight falls within a defined tolerance range.
- Estatistikak: Perform statistical analysis on a series of weighings.
5.4 Kalibrazioa
Regular calibration is crucial for maintaining accuracy.
- isoCAL (Internal Calibration): The balance automatically performs internal calibration based on temperature and time changes. This function can also be manually initiated via the menu.
- Kanpoko Kalibrazioa: The balance supports calibration using external weights. Refer to the on-screen prompts or the detailed menu instructions for the procedure.
5.5 Datuen interfazeak
The balance offers multiple interfaces for data management:
- USB ataka: For connecting to a computer (Windows OS) for data transfer.
- RS-232C ataka: For connecting peripheral devices.
- Ethernet ataka: For network integration.
- SD txartelaren irakurgailua: For importing and exporting data.
6. Mantentzea
6.1 Garbiketa
To clean the balance, disconnect it from the power supply. Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild detergent. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure no liquids enter the balance housing. The weighing pan can be removed for separate cleaning.
