Scope This SOP describes procedures for cleaning industrial (benchtop) scales. Designed to instruct personnel on how to thoroughly clean a scale. Scale cleanliness can have a significant impact on operating efficiency and scale longevity, as well as user safety.
Things to note
Make sure personnel know how to clean the scale and refer to the instructions and guidelines in the user manual.
First remove excess powder and dust, then remove gunk.
For excess powder and dust, use a clean, dry cloth.
Remove the weighing plate according to the instructions in the user manual.
Remove any dirt and foreign matter that may have accumulated beneath it. (Do not use any hard objects to do this. Do not disassemble the weighing platform.)
Remove dirt and sediment from the outside and inside of the weighing platform using a soft, clean cloth moistened with appropriate detergent.
Only use cleaning agents that will not affect the plastic used in the weighing platform and comply with the manufacturer's instructions.
Do not use strongly acidic, alkaline or chlorinated cleaners. Avoid using substances with a pH that is too high or too low as this increases the risk.
All cleaners should be rinsed thoroughly according to the instructions in the user manual.
Take special care when cleaning the load cells of our high-precision models. Never touch, blow or spray the load cell cover directly with compressed air.
The most appropriate cleaning procedure depends on the type of surface and environmental conditions (dry, wet or corrosive). The instructions in the user manual should always be followed.
Stainless steel models require subsequent oiling for proper maintenance.
See the user manual for detailed instructions.
Cleaning Frequency Cleaning frequency varies depending on the industry, application and frequency of instrument use. In general, it is recommended to clean the scale at least after every shift or product line change. If there is a spill, the entire area should be cleaned before weighing another material. When handling potentially toxic substances, the scale must always be cleaned after use. Cleaning Procedure The following steps describe a general cleaning procedure that applies to all bench scales. Depending on the type and model of scale you have, some of the steps listed below may not work. Standard cleaning procedures
做好準備:保護自己并準備好說明交流研討。 a. 穿戴適當?shù)膫€人防護裝備(外套凝聚力量、護目鏡和手套)有效保障。 b. 查閱操作說明至關重要,了解如何拆卸和重新組裝秤的可拆卸部件建議。 c. 查閱操作說明和/或用戶手冊堅實基礎,了解清潔秤部件的推薦清潔劑。
將秤調(diào)平力量。 a. 確保氣泡位于標記圓圈的中心,如果不在提單產,請采取適當措施重新調(diào)平高效流通。 b. 在稱重盤上放置測試砝碼并執(zhí)行常規(guī)測試以檢查準確性調解製度。 c. 如果未通過此常規(guī)測試,請使用外部砝碼校準秤或執(zhí)行內(nèi)部校準功能,例如 FACT應用的因素之一。 d. 測試配件(例如,為打印機制作測試打印輸出)預期。
General Industrial Scale Cleaning Procedures
Be prepared: Protect yourself and have instructions ready.
關(guān)閉秤顯示屏善於監督。 如果可能,請將秤保持在正常工作位置就能壓製。
清潔秤周圍更合理。 使用干凈的干無絨布清除秤周圍的任何污垢。
Remove the load plate.
Clean the inside and outside of the scale.
Clean the load board.
Reassemble the scale.
Check the leveling of the scale and perform routine tests if necessary.
