WANT Balance Instrument Co., Ltd.

In today's rapidly developing technology, various precision instruments continue to emerge, bringing great convenience to our lives and work. Among them, digital balance has been widely used in laboratory, factory, commercial and other fields due to its precise and fast measurement characteristics. However, sometimes we may find that the readings of the digital balance are inaccurate. What is the reason for this?

1. Common causes of errors

The balance is not placed steadily

The digital balance needs to be placed on a stable horizontal surface. If it is not placed steadily, it will cause uneven force on the sensor of the balance, which will affect the accuracy of the reading. For example, placing a digital balance on a shaking table or a tilted tabletop may cause readings to deviate.

Low battery level

If the battery of the digital balance is low, it will also affect its normal operation. Insufficient battery power may cause the display screen of the balance to darken, readings to be unstable, or error codes to appear. Therefore, when inaccurate readings are found on a digital balance, the first step is to check if the battery is fully charged.

External environmental impact

External environmental factors may also have an impact on the readings of digital balances. For example, factors such as temperature, humidity, and airflow can all cause errors in the sensors of the balance. When using a digital balance, it is advisable to avoid using it in environments with large temperature changes, high humidity, or air flow interference.

2. Steps for troubleshooting

Check the placement position

Firstly, check if the digital balance is placed on a stable horizontal surface. You can use a level or other tools to check the flatness of the tabletop. If you find that the tabletop is not stable, you can adjust the foot pad of the balance or change the placement position to ensure that the balance is placed smoothly.

Check battery level

If the digital balance is powered by batteries, check if the battery is fully charged. You can replace the battery with a new one or use a charger to charge the battery. If the reading is still inaccurate after replacing the battery, other fault reasons can be considered.

Exclude external environmental influences

Check for interference from factors such as temperature, humidity, and airflow in the usage environment. If possible, you can move the digital balance to a stable environment for testing and observe whether the reading returns to normal.

Calibrate digital balance

If none of the above steps can solve the problem, you can try calibrating the digital balance. The calibration methods for different models of digital balances may vary, and generally can be operated by referring to the user manual. After calibration, test again to see if the readings are accurate.

3. Solution and maintenance suggestions

Suggestions for preventing reading errors

Place the digital balance correctly, ensuring that it is placed on a stable and level surface.

Regularly check the battery level and replace or charge the battery in a timely manner.

Avoid using digital balances in harsh environments such as high temperatures, high humidity, and areas with airflow interference.

Handle items with care to avoid impact on the balance.

The importance of regularly maintaining digital balances

Regularly clean the digital balance, keep its appearance clean, and prevent dust and debris from entering the interior of the balance.

Regularly calibrate according to the instructions to ensure the accuracy of readings.

Regularly check whether the sensors and other components of the balance are working properly, and repair or replace them promptly if there are any problems.

In short, digital balances may have inaccurate readings during use. We need to understand the common causes of errors and master the steps and solutions for troubleshooting.
