1. Wprowadzenie
This manual provides essential instructions for the safe and efficient operation of your KERN PCD 6K-4 Precision Laboratory Balance. This laboratory scale features a separate weighing platform, making it ideal for use in specialized environments such as glove-bags or extractor cabinets, particularly when weighing toxic, volatile, or contaminated substances. It includes a PRE-TARE function for manual extraction of known container weights, useful for precise filling quantity controls.
Przed pierwszym użyciem należy uważnie przeczytać instrukcję i zachować ją do wykorzystania w przyszłości.
2. Instrukcje bezpieczeństwa
- Zawsze należy używać wagi na stabilnej, równej powierzchni, wolnej od drgań.
- Avoid exposing the balance to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, or high humidity.
- Nie przeciążaj wagi ponad jej maksymalne obciążenie 6000g.
- Keep the balance clean and free from dust and chemical spills.
- Używaj wyłącznie zasilacza dostarczonego z urządzeniem.
- Nie próbuj samodzielnie demontować ani naprawiać wagi. W tym celu skontaktuj się z wykwalifikowanym personelem serwisowym.

Figure 1: KERN PCD 6K-4 Precision Laboratory Balance
This image shows the KERN PCD 6K-4 precision laboratory balance. It consists of a square weighing platform with a stainless steel surface, connected by a cable to a separate digital display unit. The display unit features a large digital readout, along with buttons for ON/OFF, MODE/CAL, SET/M, PRINT, and TARE. The display indicates a maximum capacity of 3500g and a readability of 0.01g, though the model is 6K-4 (6000g max). The separate design is ideal for use in specialized environments like glove-bags.
4. Konfiguracja
- Umieszczenie: Place the weighing platform and display unit on a stable, vibration-free, and level surface. Ensure sufficient space for operation and avoid direct sunlight, drafts, or significant temperature fluctuations.
- Montaż: Connect the cable from the weighing platform to the designated port on the digital display unit.
- Niwelacja: Use the adjustable foot bolts located on the underside of the weighing platform to level the balance. Observe the integrated spirit level (if present) to ensure precise horizontal alignment.
- Ochrona przed wiatrem: If your model includes a wind protection ring (for Ø 105 mm weighing plates), carefully place it around the weighing platform. This helps stabilize readings in environments with air currents.
- Podłączenie zasilania: Connect the power adapter to the display unit and then plug it into a suitable power outlet.
5. Instrukcja obsługi
5.1 Włączanie/wyłączanie zasilania
- To turn the balance ON, naciśnij WŁ./WYŁ. button. The display will show a self-test and then settle at 0.00g.
- To turn the balance WYŁĄCZONY, naciśnij i przytrzymaj WŁ./WYŁ. przycisk, aż wyświetlacz się wyłączy.
5.2 Podstawowe ważenie
- Ensure the balance is powered on and displays 0.00g.
- Carefully place the item to be weighed onto the center of the weighing platform.
- Poczekaj, aż wyświetlacz się ustabilizuje. Zostanie wyświetlona stabilna waga.
- Remove the item from the platform.
5.3 TARE Function
