Cleaning is important for several reasons including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Ensures accurate results<\/li><li>Extends the life of weighing equipment<\/li><li>Increases user safety<\/li><li>Reduces the risk of cross-contamination<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Maintaining cleanliness is easier than you might think. Here are 8 easy steps to ensure your balance is clean and ready to work its best for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1 \u2013 Get Ready<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Protect yourself &amp; prepare instructions. Wear appropriate personnel protective equipment (coat, goggles and gloves).  Consult the operating instructions on how to disassemble &amp; reassemble the removable parts of your balance. Consult the operating instructions on which cleaning methods and agents are recommended to clean the balance parts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tip #1<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>When is it Time to Clean the Balance?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every lab has its own guidelines or SOP on how often a balance should be cleaned, depending on industry, application and frequency of use. But as a general rule, the balance should be cleaned immediately after each use or every time the weighing substance is changed. This avoids cross-contamination and exposure risk for the person who uses the instrument next.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/us.misumi-ec.com\/vona2\/detail\/223000311428\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.misumiusa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Precision-Balances-FX-i_FX-iN_NC-Series-AD-Weighing.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11468\" width=\"306\" height=\"247\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.misumiusa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Precision-Balances-FX-i_FX-iN_NC-Series-AD-Weighing.jpg 829w, https:\/\/blog.misumiusa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Precision-Balances-FX-i_FX-iN_NC-Series-AD-Weighing-300x242.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.misumiusa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Precision-Balances-FX-i_FX-iN_NC-Series-AD-Weighing-150x121.jpg 150w, https:\/\/blog.misumiusa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Precision-Balances-FX-i_FX-iN_NC-Series-AD-Weighing-768x620.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 306px) 100vw, 306px\" \/><\/a><figcaption><a href=\"https:\/\/us.misumi-ec.com\/vona2\/detail\/223000311428\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">A&amp;D Weighing FX-i Series Balance<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2 \u2013 Switch the Balance Display Off<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unplugging the power is recommended but not necessary (If possible, leave the balance in its normal operating position, do not tilt it sideways and don\u2019t unplug connected peripherals).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3 \u2013 Clean the Area Around the Balance<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cleaning the area around the balance as well as the balance itself is a good idea daily. Use a soft bristle brush as well as a damp chem wipe or paper towel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4 \u2013 Disassemble All Removable Parts<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With A&amp;D Weighing balance, there is no unlocking or unscrewing for dismantle.

Do not allow any substance to enter the balance\u2019s internal parts &amp; do not spray or pour liquids on the balance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>6 \u2013 Clean the Removable Parts<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Use a damp cloth or tissue and clean with a mild cleaning agent. If the parts are <a href=\"https:\/\/us.misumi-ec.com\/blog\/thread-galling-issues-with-stainless-steel-fasteners\/\">stainless steel<\/a>, simply place them in the dishwasher or autoclave if required for the application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>7 \u2013 Reassemble the Balance<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Make sure the parts are correctly positioned, switch the balance on and check that it is working correctly.
