Ohaus Corporation, a leading manufacturer of balances for the laboratory, education, industrial and specialty markets worldwide, is proud to announce the launch of the Discovery Series of
Semi-Micro and Analytical balances. Designed for applications that require precise measurement, the Discovery will perform beyond expectations and prove to be one of the most accurate and
reliable tools available for university research, pharmaceutical research, drug discovery, and general lab applications.
This new family of Semi-Micro and Analytical balances offers precision weighing with semi-micro performance specifications that are two times better than most other balances in its class.
The Discovery, which features Ohaus's8217; SmarText's8482; software, is not only extremely easy to use, but with the introduction of Advanced AutoCal's8482;, it is extremely reliable as
well.
Highest Performance
The Ohaus Discovery is available in 4 analytical models with a FineRange's8482; model featuring semi-micro readability. Discovery's8217;s repeatability and linearity performance is twice
as advanced as most 10 micro gram balances in its class. For added balance stability and accuracy, the Discovery's8217;s glass and steel construction resists the effects of static. Its
corrosion resistance helps extend the product's8217;s life to provide years of reliable service.
SmarTextTM Software Guides Users Through Balance Use
The Ohaus Discovery series is designed to offer simple operation and functionality by utilizing Ohaus's8217; intuitive SmarTextTM software, first introduced to the market in the Ohaus
Adventurer's8482; Pro. SmarText's8482; is easy-to-use balance software that utilizes text prompts to guide users through balance setup and application use. Delivered through a 2 line
backlit LCD and clearly marked buttons, SmarTextTM tells you what is going on and what you have to do next.
Advanced AutoCal's8482; Automatic Internal Calibration
All Discovery models feature Ohaus's8217; Advanced AutoCal's8482; internal calibration system, which helps to ensure accurate weighing by automatically calibrating the balance when it
senses a temperature change significant enough to affect the weighing accuracy. To minimize weighing errors, AutoCal's8482; utilizes two internal calibration weights to perform a linear
calibration. Furthermore, AutoCal's8482; helps to keep Discovery accurate without the need for external weights.
Feature Rich
The Ohaus Discovery is the perfect combination of performance and value. Its features include:
▪Multiple Application Modes 's8211; Statistics, Density Determination, Pipette Calibration, Percent Weighing, Dynamic Weighing, Check Weighing, High Point, Parts Counting,
Totalization and Gross/Net/Tare Weighing.
▪RS232 Interface with GLP Data Output 's8211; Connect to a PC or a printer and record GLP/GMP data including date, time, balance ID, user ID, project ID and reference data.
▪Environmental Settings 's8211; User selectable filter settings to compensate for vibrations and other disturbances.
▪Up Front Level Indicator 's8211; Ensure that the balance is level with a quick view of the up front level indicator and eliminate the need to look behind the balance during the
leveling process.
Other Standard Features and Equipment
Discovery also features a stainless steel weighing platform, integral weigh-below hook for density or specific gravity determination, in-use cover, stability indicator, mechanical and
software overload/underload protection, AC adapter, user selectable span calibration points, auto tare, multiple weighing units, user selectable printing options, user selectable
communications settings, user selectable data print options, user definable project and user ID's8217;s, software reset menu, and a software lockout menu.
