Analytical and Precision Balances

New laboratory balances, whether of the analytical or precision kind, can be purchased from any of a number of suppliers of laboratory equipment. One of the well-known brand names is Ohaus which provides weighing solutions for laboratories, classrooms and industrial applications. It offers different series of laboratory balances such as Voyager Pro, Explorer Pro, Pioneer, Discovery and Adventurer Pro.

Choose from Balances with a Variety of Features

You can choose from new laboratory balances of different capacity, linearity, prompts, operating temperature, readability, display type, repeatability and calibration. The Voyager Pro balances are in accordance with OIML/NTEP standards. These systems have sophisticated software for statistical QC, statistics, pipette calibration, auxiliary port, differential weighing, density determination and formulation. Features found in Explorer pro balances include RS232 port, GLP compliance, huge graphic display, brightness and contrast control, intuitive menu operation and security bracket.

Ohaus Pioneer balances have an analytical draftshield that can be easily cleaned. An up-front level indicator ensures a level balance before use. Modifiable zero tracking and three filter modes regulate balance sensitivity as per application requirements or to environmental disturbances. Features of the Ohaus Discovery series include AutoCal to facilitate automatic system calibration, SmarText software, two line backlit LCD display with dual tare buttons, and a glass-steel construction which gives good protection against corrosion.

Adventure Pro Analytical balances have features such as SmarText TM software, frameless draftshield, and QuadraStance TM design.

You Can even Opt for Reconditioned Balances

If you feel that investing in new laboratory balances would pinch your purse strings, you can always settle for reconditioned balances. You needn't worry about the quality of such equipment because it would be repaired and its faulty parts replaced, cleaned and tested before it is sold.
