How to use the Kern 440 Precision Balance

Place the Kern 440 Precision Balance on a firm, level surface. Turn the balance on by pressing the ‘On/Off’ key, where the balance will first carry out a self-test before showing the weight display meaning weighing procedures can begin.

For weighing with a container, which may be useful for parts counting, the ‘Tare’ key can be used to zero the display. The Kern 440 Precision Balance has a pre pre-tare function, which stores the weight of a container even if the balance is switched off. To access, place your container on the weighing pan, press ‘Mode/Cal’ repeatedly until ‘PtArE’ flashes on display, then use ‘Set’ key to store.  

For more information on how to set up and use percentage weighing and parts counting features, please see the user manual.
