Safety standards
1
The equipment is aimed exclusively for
professional fi tters that must know the
principles of refrigeration, refrigeration
systems, refrigerant gases and likely dama-
ge caused by pressure equipment.
2
The present manual must be read tho-
roughly, strict observance of the steps
herewith described being an essential
condition for user safety and equipment
integrity, as well as maintaining the stated
performance.
3
Using applicable protections, such as
goggles and gloves, is recommended; co-
ming into contact with the refrigerant can
cause blindness and other injures.
4
Always work away from fl ames and hot
surfaces; at elevated temperatures, the
refrigerant gas breaks down, releasing
toxic and aggressive substances, harmful
for users and the environment.
5
Avoid skin contact; the low boiling point
of the refrigerant liquid (about -18ºC/-
3ºF), can cause frostbite.
6
Avoid inhaling refrigerant fumes. Narcotic
effect.
7
Keep the scale dry. Water or any other
liquid would damage electronic compo-
nents.
8
Keep the scale away from disturbances
such as, vibrations, magnetic fi elds, corro-
sive gases and liquids, etc.

Introduction
Description of Rothenberger scale
Digital scale used to accurately fi nd the weight
of elements. This weighing equipment is
specifi cally designed to easy charge and recover
refrigerants in air conditioning and refrigeration
systems (HVAC&R).
The equipment has optimum capacity and
accuracy for this task, as well as adequate base
dimensions to hold refrigerant cylinders.
