Intelligent performance

With stabilization times up to 50% faster and superior shock protection, it delivers fast, accurate, and reliable results.

• Fast stabilization time improves operational efficiency and productivity, and increases throughput
• Optimized linearity and repeatability specifications provides accurate and repeatable results
• Optimized vibration filtering provides balance stability in unstable environments

Ingenious draftshield

Provides ample access and visibility to the weighing chamber through the versatile top door and side sliding doors.

• Side doors seamlessly glide on top-mounted bearings
• The versatile top door offers two entry options; access the weighing chamber by flipping the top door or sliding the glass panel open
• The expansive side entry 6.3 x 9.4" (160 x 240 mm) allows you to freely place and remove large weigh boats or other large vessels in the weighing chamber
• Antistatic coated glass helps dissipate static charges in the weighing chamber which could adversely affect the weighing results
• Easy to install and remove glass panels and a stainless steel bottom make it extremely easy to clean

Practical touch-less sensors

Features up to four touch-less sensors for hands-free operation of zero, print, calibration, tare, and other selectable functions.

• Hands-free operation improves weighing efficiency, eliminates sample residue transfer, and minimizes contamination
• Two sensors on the base and two on the display can be set up individually to allow for remote operations

Intelligent calibration

AutoCal™ ensures performance and assists with routine maintenance by automatically calibrating the balance daily.

• Self-calibrates the system when it senses a temperature change sufficient enough to affect weighing accuracy, or every 3 to 11 hours, depending on the user configuration
• Performs routine calibration and reduces the need for external masses

Intuitive user setup

Easy-to-use balance, featuring leveling assistance and instructional messaging for quick out-of-the-box setup and use.

• Easy to view illuminated level indicator placed at the front of the balance
• Adjustable thumbwheels are easy to turn to level the balance
• Level assist screen helps users quickly identify which thumbwheels need to be adjusted to level the balance
• Data Transfer Function helps to output data directly into Microsoft Excel
• Instructional messaging during application use guides users through the weighing process
• User information menu allows users quickly view and learn more about the available balances features
• Up to 14 operating languages make it truly universal

Applications

• Laboratory
• Industrial

Software

SmarText™ 2.0 is an easy-to-use graphical software featuring 14 applications, virtual QWERTY and numeric keypads, and below minimum weight indication. The advanced applications simplify even the most complex laboratory measurements. Whether it's determining the difference between initial and residual weights or calculating the density of solids and liquids, this balance eliminates the need for time consuming manual calculations and data logging. The high resolution display and innovative user interface make balance setup and application use effortless.

Features

• Color VGA display with icons for simple menu navigation
• High resolution, 5.7" (145 mm) diagonal color 640 x 480 pixel display reproduces highly readable operating software
• Resistive touch screen display quickly responds to operator's touch or stylus
• 14 built-in applications with customization capabilities to meet the varying needs in laboratory and industrial settings
• Minimum weight capability with visual warning feature
• Virtual QWERTY keyboard and numeric keypad to quickly input GLP and GMP data and other application data, direct scan of the sample ID to the input field with an optional barcode reader
• Password protected User Manager with administrator capability
• Library function to store and recall customized applications including 10 recipes for formulation application
• Alternate RS232 command feature adapts the balance to existing data acquisition software
• External input for zero, tare or print operations via the external foot switch accessory (sold separately)
• Audible and visual feedback for touch screen input commands as well as the indication of the check weighing status

Standard Apps

• Weighing: Determine weight of items in the selected unit of measure; minimum weight feature is also available
• Percent weighing: Measure the weight of a sample displayed as a percentage of a pre-established reference weight
• Dynamic weighing: Weigh an unstable load; balance takes an average of weights over a time period
• Totalization: Measure cumulative weight of multiple items (cumulative total may exceed balance capacity)
• Fill weight variation: Check whether the individual pill weight is in the tolerance of the average of total pill weight
• Differential weighing: Store sample weights and calculate the difference between initial weights and final weights
• Peak hold: Capture and store highest weight in a series; both stable and unstable weights are captured
• Parts counting: Count samples of uniform weight; choose standard, check, or fill counting
• Pipette adjustment: Check pipette values by weight analysis, with built-in water density table
• Check weighing: Compare the weight of a sample against target limits; choose from standard, nominal-weight, or nominal-percent
• Filling: Fill a container to a target weight; progress bar displays filling status
• Formulation: For compounding and recipe making; the number of components can be from two to 99
• Density determination: Determine density of solids more dense than water, solids less dense than water, liquids, or porous material
• Ingredient costing: Determine cost of formula or recipe based on known cost/quantity of components or ingredients
• SQC: Monitor and/or control processes to eliminate under and over filling
