Warning 2.1 Intended use The instrument you have acquired serves to determine the measuring value of the material to be measured. It is intended to be used as a “non-automatic“ instrument, i.e. the material to be measured is manually and carefully attached at the instrument. The measuring value can be read off after a stable measuring value has been obtained. Sensor Outside 2.2 Inappropriate use Do not use the instrument for dynamic measuring. In the event that small quantities are removed or added to the material to be measured, incorrect measuring results can be displayed due to the “stability compensation“ in the instrument. (Example: Slow draining off of liquid from a container suspended from the instrument). Do not attach a continuous load. This can damage the measuring unit as well as the parts, relevant to safety. Prevent jolts, torsion and oscillation (e.g. by appending slopingly) of all kinds. Be sure to prevent overloading the instrument in excess of the stated maximum load (max.), minus any tare weight that may possibly exist. This could damage the instrument (risk of breakage). Important: • Always make sure that there are no people or materials below the load that could be injured or damaged! • The instrument is not suitable for measuring people. Do not use as baby scales! • The instrument does not comply with the medical product law (MPG). Never operate the instrument in hazardous locations. The series design is not explosion-proof. Structural alterations may not be made to the instrument. This can lead to incorrect measuring results, faults concerning safety regulations as well as to destruction of the instrument. The instrument may only be used in compliance with the described guidelines. Varying areas of application/ planned use must be approved by SAUTER in writing. 2.3 Guarantee The guarantee is not valid following • non-observation of our guidelines in the operating instructions • use outside the described applications • alteration to or opening of the device • mechanical damage and damage caused by media, liquids • natural wear and tear • inappropriate erection or electric installation • overloading of the measuring equipment 2.4 Monitoring the test substances
