High-Capacity Precision Balances High Capacity Taking Weighing Precision and Protection to New Heights

New and Improved―Precision Balances Ideal for Heavy-Duty Weighing In Tough Industrial Conditions Who else is interested in a laboratory balance that provides the feel of a washdown bench scale? The GX-L/GF-L series, the successor to A&D’s long-selling GP series, continues to allow precise weighing of heavy or large amounts of materials in demanding conditions. In addition, now as part of the A&D Apollo family, these models also offer various advanced features that make your weighing easier and more efficient, not to mention more accurate.

Safeguard against spillage IP65 dust and waterproof The GX-L/GF-L series, which are IP65-rated, permit no ingress of dust, and can withstand water projected from any direction, as defined by the IEC/EN standard 60529. This makes the balance highly suitable for working with liquid or powder materials, or use in dusty/wet environments, with no need to worry about damaging it. Further balance protection Impact shock detection (ISD) The weight sensor of a precision balance will be damaged if continually affected by loads with acceleration (impact shocks). This typically occurs in factories where objects...

Data output/communication RS-232C (D-Sub 9-pin) and USB (Mini-B) interfaces as standard The USB interface can be toggled between Quick USB mode (plug-and-play with weighing data output to a PC only) and Virtual COM mode (for bi-directional communication*2). A USB cable (1.8 m) is supplied as standard. The GX-L/GF-L series remain IP65-rated when a USB cable is connected to the USB interface. For the RS-232C interface, a 5-meter waterproof RS-232C cable is available as a separately-sold accessory (AX-KO2737-500). *2 Installation of dedicated driver software is required for Windows 8.1 or earlier....

Automatic precision assessment (APA) In APA mode, the balance first makes a quick diagnoses on whether there is a critical failure (Dia-Check), and then shows a repeatability test result (Standard Deviation) as well as the minimum weight (QuickMin-S) calculated using an electronically controlled load (ECL).*4 It takes less than 1.5 minutes and can be readily included in a daily check SOP. is generating a *4 ECL to A&D's patented technology of by purposely minute load (0.3 3% of the balance capacity) altering the equilibrium state of the electromagnetic force restoration sensor. Automatic minimum...

Tare memory The tare value can be saved in non-volatile memory. When this function is activated, the power-on zero/tare is turned off. Therefore, even if the power supply is interrupted during weigh-in or loss-in-weight measurement (e.g. filling), the net value displayed before the loss of power is restored once the balance is turned on again. Data memory Each balance has a capacity to store up to 200 weighing results + 50 sensitivity adjustment/calibration test results (all with timestamps), and 50 unit masses to be used in counting mode, 20 sets of upper/lower limit values to be used in comparator...
