OHAUS EX125 Offers

The Explorer semi-micro electronic balance has a detachable terminal with a large color touchscreen, programmable IR sensors, optional built-in Ionizer and automatic doors (sold separately), and a frameless draft shield, making Explorer balances easy and convenient to use. In addition, the semi-micro Explorer series, which includes models with capacities up to 220 g and resolutions up to 0.01 mg, has been designed to use a high-speed single-module weighing cell to ensure the accuracy of results. To minimize weighing errors and provide accurate measurements, AutoCal utilizes two internal weights to perform a linear calibration.

Weighing performance

The signature AutoCal™ internal calibration system ensures the balance is always ready for use and eliminates the need for manual routine calibration. Explorer’s internal calibration mechanism uses multiple weights and adjusts the balance at several points within the weighing range; this results in lower measurement uncertainty than a simple span calibration. Additionally, Explorer balances feature a built-in repeatability test, which helps evaluate the balance’s performance and aids in determining a suitable minimum weight for applications requiring high accuracy.

Connectivity

Explorer balances include a series of communication interfaces including RS-232, USB, and Ethernet, allowing accessories such as RFID readers, printers and barcode scanners to be connected to the balance. A simple yet complete communication protocol allows Explorer balances to connect easily to a PC or integrate with larger systems.

Data management

Explorer balances are equipped with internal databases, which can be used to store, manage, and retrieve application and system data. An internal weighing mode library allows weighing mode configurations to be saved and loaded. The system event log records changes to the balance’s settings, calibrations and adjustments, and user access. System logs can be exported as a non-editable PDF file and saved onto a USB memory stick. A built-in real-time clock ensures that the data captured is contemporaneous.

User management

The user management system allows a system administrator to create up to 110 users and assign them to 1 of 4 pre-existing groups with varying access rights to the balance and enforce password protection ensuring data integrity in a multi-user environment.

Ingenious construction designed to enhance usability

The sleek Explorer semi-micro balance has been designed and constructed to provide a modern weighing experience as well as to bolster accuracy.

Operator experience

Among the features that enhance the operator experience are:

• Color touchscreen display
• Four programmable touchless sensors allow the operator to perform common functions and commands with a swipe of the hand
• Modular design in which the base and display can be separated to allow the balance to fit ideally on the lab bench

Auto doors (sold seprately)

The automatic door feature, available on certain models, allows access to the weighing chamber without the need to touch the draft shield door. Placement of samples is achieved in one swift motion, eliminating the repetition of picking up and putting down samples due to a lack of free hands.

The automatic doors are also more than a user-friendly feature; they minimize vibrations caused by manual operation that can affect weighing results.

Ionizer (sold separately)

The built-in ionizer, included in Explorer automatic door models, generates bipolar ions continuously from positive and negative discharge electrodes and directs the ionized air onto the charged body to eliminate static electricity. These charges can build up in the weighing chamber and alter weighing results by as much as several milligrams.
