Ohaus Explorer precision balances for Application-Based Model Selection

These balances are made 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 simplify even the most complex laboratory measurements.

Applications

Weighing, Parts Counting, Percent Weighing, Checkweighing, Animal/Dynamic Weighing, Filling, Totalization/Statistics, Formulation, Differential Weighing, Density Determination, Peak Hold, Ingredient Costing, Pipette Adjustment, SQC, Statistics

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 draftshield with top-mounted side doors and flip/sliding top door (1mg models only), 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, and the choice of traditional calibration or AutoCal™ models. Explorer's sturdy modular design includes metal housing and a display that can be separated from the weighing base and tower- or wall-mounted for easy viewing in any workspace. A detachable terminal with a large color touchscreen, programmable IR sensors, and a frameless draftshield make Explorer precision balances easy and convenient to use.

For versatile weighing solutions

The Pioneer Precision Balances deliver dependable performance for laboratory and industrial tasks, the Scout SPX Portable Balances provide rugged, water-resistant portability, and the High-Capacity Precision Balances handle demanding, large-load applications with high accuracy and touchscreen-enabled control.

Product Q&A

What types of weighing applications are supported by Explorer Precision Balances?

They support a wide range of tasks including basic weighing, parts counting, percent weighing, checkweighing, animal/dynamic weighing, filling, formulation, differential weighing, density determination, peak hold, ingredient costing, pipette adjustment, SQC, and statistics.

How is data communication handled on these balances?

Explorer balances include RS232 and USB connections by default, with optional second RS232/Ethernet ports. GLP/GMP data output with a real-time clock is supported for regulatory compliance.

What makes Explorer balances precise and reliable?

Precision is achieved through fast stabilization times, optimized linearity and repeatability, AutoCal™ or traditional calibration, enhanced vibration filtering, and a sturdy modular construction.

Can the display be positioned separately from the weighing base?

Yes, the display can be detached and tower- or wall-mounted for optimal viewing in any workspace.

Are these balances suitable for high-throughput laboratory environments?

Yes, their fast stabilization, multiple application modes, and touchscreen-enabled interface allow efficient use in busy laboratory or industrial settings.

What safety and usability features are included?

Features include glass draftshield doors, up-front level indicator, calibration lock, touchless sensors, selectable environmental filters, auto tare, software lockout, and programmable user/project IDs.

These products are commonly considered for laboratory weighing, formulation, sample preparation, incoming inspection, and production quality control. Ideal for compare capacities, readability, pan size, portability, or calibration options across sister models.
