Information (incl. Documents for
Hazardous Areas)

An external power supply is necessary
for operation of the scale:
YPS05-XD (hazardous area)
YPS05-ZD (non-hazardous area)
Note:
No power supply is included with

Requirements on the Place of
Installation
The EC1XS.-......-L is designed to
provide reliable results under normal
ambient conditions.
When choosing a location to set
up the EC1XS.-......-LX, observe the
following so that you will be able to
work with added speed and accuracy:
even surface. The carrying capacity of
the chosen working surface must be
sufficient for both the weighing plat-
form and any load placed on it.
proximity to a heater or otherwise
exposing it to heat or direct sunlight.
exposure to drafts that come from
open windows or doors.
to excessive vibration.
– Protect the EC1XS.-......-L from
aggressive chemical vapors.
– Do not expose the equipment
to excessive electromagnetic inter-
ference, as it can affect the value
displayed.
– Turn off the power when the system
is not in use
– The allowable operating
temperature range is –10°C to +40°C
(14°F to 104°F)
§ Level the weighing platform using
the leveling feet as described below:
§ Check to ensure that all leveling feet
rest securely on the work surface.
> Each of the leveling feet must
support an equal load.
§ Loosen the locknuts on the leveling
feet using a 19-mm open-end
wrench (spanner).
> Adjusting the leveling feet:
To raise the weighing platform,
extend the leveling feet
(turn clockwise).
To lower the weighing platform,
retract the leveling feet
(turn counterclockwise).
§ After leveling the weighing platform,
tighten the lock nuts as follows:
Low-capacity platforms (1 load cell):
tighten the locknuts against the plat-
form frame. High-capacity platforms
(4 load cells): tighten the locknuts
against the platform feet.
§ If the scale is in a hazardous area,
it must be grounded (i.e., an equi-
potential bonding conductor must
be connected; resistance: <1 ohm).
This connection should be made by
a trained technician (see "Warnings
and Safety Precautions").
!
Sartorius power supplies are equipped
with fuses for protection from over-
heating. The fuse responds when the
temperature exceeds 40°C (104°F).
Make sure power supplies have ade-
quate cooling/ventilation. You can
use screws to affix the power supply
to a metal plate if necessary. Prevent
build-up of excessive heat.
