Guide for calibrating Sartorius BSA series electronic balances, covering internal and external calibration steps and common misconceptions.
The document explains why calibration is necessary for the Sartorius BSA series electronic balances, describing the effects of long idle periods, environmental changes, and improper handling. It distinguishes between internal calibration and external calibration, noting that the BSA series is equipped with a calibration device.
Step‑by‑step procedures are provided for external calibration using a 100 g standard weight, including pressing the CAL key, waiting for the CAL‑100 display, placing the weight, and verifying the zero reading. The guide also clarifies common misunderstandings, such as assuming a zero display means the balance is ready for weighing or that heavier loads cause more damage, and explains the balance’s electromagnetic compensation principle. This manual is written in Chinese.
| Calibration weight required | 100 g |
|---|---|
| Zero reading after calibration | 0.000 g |
It means a 100 g standard calibration weight must be placed on the pan before proceeding.
No, you must not exceed the weighing range; overload can affect the balance’s performance.
No, a zero display only shows that the zero point is stable; calibration is still required for accurate measurements.
