Explorer analytical balances

Ohaus Explorer analytical balances for Application-Based Model Selection

This series is especially useful for laboratory weighing, formulation, sample preparation, incoming inspection, and production quality control, where the right choice often depends on differences in capacity, readability, pan size, portability, and calibration options. 

These smart and intuitive balances and all of their intelligent features simplify even the most complex laboratory measurements.

• Display: 5.7" (145 mm) Full-color VGA graphic touchscreen display with user-controlled brightness
• Operation: AC adapter (included)
• Communication: RS232 and USB (included) or second RS232/Ethernet (accessories sold separately). GLP/GMP data output with a real-time clock.
• Construction: Modular design, metal base, ABS top housing, stainless steel pan, glass draft shield with top-mounted side doors and flip/sliding top door, illuminated up-front level indicator, integral weigh below hook, security bracket, calibration lock, four touchless sensors, full housing in-use cover
• Design Features: Selectable environmental filters, auto tare, user selectable span calibration points, software lockout and reset menu, user selectable communication settings and data print options, user-definable project and user IDs, auto standby, up to 14 operating languages

A large color touchscreen gives access to the advanced application modes and icon-driven application software features such as user manager, library, and minimum weight indication.

Explorer features fast stabilization times, optimized linearity and repeatability specifications, enhanced vibration filtering as well as AutoCal™ calibration to ensure accuracy.

The draft shield provides easy entry to the weighing chamber through the flip or sliding top door and the top-mounted side doors which can be automatically controlled on /AD models.

For laboratories requiring versatile analytical performance, the Pioneer Precision Balances deliver reliable weighing for routine applications, while the Adventurer Precision Balances offer robust connectivity and ease of use for multi-purpose laboratory tasks. Higher capacity and enhanced stability are available with the Scout Balances, designed for industrial or educational settings where repeatability and accuracy are critical.
