Calibration And Adjustment - Denver Instrument Pinnacle Series Betriebsanleitung

Calibration and Adjustment

Calibration technically means to determine the difference between the weigh-
ing instrument readout and the actual weight on the platform to determine the
accuracy. Adjustment means to bring a weighing instrument to the level of
accuracy required for its use.
Your balance was calibrated at the factory; however, it must be re-calibrated
upon installation and subsequently on a regular basis. The recommended
calibration interval is once per week, using a certified calibration weight.
Calibration must also be performed any time the balance has been moved,
leveled, or disconnected from power, as well as following a significant change
in ambient temperature. Additional calibration may be required for compli-
ance with ISO/ GLP standards.
External Calibration
1. Remove all items from the balance.
2. Press TARE.
3. Carefully center the calibration weight on the weighing pan.
4. Press the key.
5. The display shows "CAL" and the weight.
6. When calibration is complete, the weight value is displayed and the balance
returns to the normal weighing mode.
Internal Calibration (PI models only)
1. Remove all items from the balance.
2. Press TARE.
3. Press the key.
4. The display shows "CAL internal" and calibration is performed automatically.
5. When calibration is complete, the balance returns to the normal weighing
mode.
Note:
If "Internal Cal" is deactivated ("Off" in the operating menu), only external
calibration can be performed.
Note:
If calibration cannot be completed, an error message is displayed.
See "Troubleshooting Guide" for details on error codes and messages.
