Overview
General Information
Service Concept
Information
Mechanical and electrical service or repair work on the complete Miras scale
requires considerable experience, and for this reason should be performed only by
Sartorius technicians trained at the factory. Any attempt to perform repair work can
result in damage to the equipment.
Auxiliary Service Tools and Equipment
In addition to standard tools, you will need the following special tools to work on
the complete Miras scale:
3
Qty. Designation
1 Socket wrench, double hexagon, 10-32 mm, square driver (1/2“)
1 Torque wrench, 10-120 Nm 14x18, stainless steel
1 Set of open-ended wrenches with sockets
1 Set of screwdrivers (slotted)
1 Set of Allen wrenches
The complete Miras scales from Sartorius are primarily used in industry. Because
there are a number of hardware configurations to choose from, Miras models are
constructed according to customer requirements.

¾ Off-Mode: Scale is in standby mode but there is no display visible (no backlight,
no symbols, no display)
¾ On-Mode: Scale is in operation and the display shows the function, which is in use.
In this mode, “power auto off” function is invalid.

Back light works based on setup menu
In this mode, “power auto off” function is valid. After 5, 10, 15 minutes system
goes off when not in use according to the setup menu.

Battery Powered Operation
Blank Display
If the display is blank (dark), disconnect the equipment from mains, open the
housing and disconnect all cables and wires from the subassemblies. Then connect the
equipment to power again through an isolating transformer and connect all
subassemblies again, measuring the supply voltage in each case.
¾ The voltage at the power supply output (connector A; see page 8) is 12V ± 0.3 V
direct current.

The Terminal comprises Load cell-1, Load cell-2, Load cell-3, Load cell-4 and
Indicator. The Loadcell-1, Loadcell-2, Loadcell-3, Loadcell-4 are connect to the four
cell, and the indicator is connect to the A/D converter and the indicator.

Note: The color coding of the connecting cable (A/D converter / indicator to
junction box) might be different when connecting a non-Sartorius platform to the
Miras indicator.

Note: The off-center load is adjusted only in weighing platforms that have 4 load
cells.Mechanical asymmetries can result in off-center loading errors that exceed
permissible tolerance limits. Such errors must be compensated by soldering resistors to
the PCB in the junction box.
To minimize the off-center loading error, use the load cell with the lowest
readout value as a reference. Then adjust the other load cells to this value by adding
resistors.
¾ Place the test weight on each load cell in turn and write down each displayed
value.
¾ Using the lowest displayed value as the basis, calculated the resistance values for
the other load cells in accordance with the following equation:
Equation: R = R(0) x G(D) / G(T)
R = required resistance (in ohms)
R(0) = Initial resistance in the load cell being adjusted (in ohms), (if not specified in the
specification sheet) measured between Signal + (OUT_POS, positive measuring
voltage) and Signal - (OUT_NEG, negative measuring voltage).
G(D) = Difference between lowest off-center loading error (from reference load cell)
and the off-center load value displayed for the weigh cell (in kg).
G(T) = Test weight applied (in kg)
¾ Solder the required resistor into the bridge of the load cell being adjusted.
¾ Then perform calibration/adjustment again.

somewhat lighter. To compensate for this effect, always use the next higher resistor
value.
R = 2.17 ohms ((resistor to be installed (see page 42)).

¾ Expose approx. 6 cm (2.4 in.) of the wires (3) in the
cable.
¾ Remove the isolation from approx. 1 cm (0.5 in.) of
the wires and affix ferrules to the wire ends.
¾ Thread the cable through the cable gland.
¾ The shielding (1) must have contact with the
clamps (2). Connection to ground via the shield.
¾ After replacing the cable or load cell, use a torque
wrench to tighten the cable gland to 5 Nm.
