Analytical and precision balances have been specially designed to enable users to effectively and reliably accomplish daily routine tasks in the laboratory
How good a laboratory balance really is will only be seen when it is actually put to the test in daily lab routines.
Every step has to be performed just right without having to stop and think about it, even when a large number of samples have to be weighed or the pace gets hectic - the simpler the operation, the easier a lab balance is to clean and the more precise the results, the more effectively errors that cost valuable time can be prevented.
The new Sartorius Extend has been specially designed to enable users to effectively and reliably accomplish daily routine tasks in the lab.
Powerful technology, application-oriented operation and features, combined with a high level of quality and workmanship, make the Sartorius Extend a reliable weighing instrument in the laboratory, says the company.
The monolithic weigh cell, uniquely provided worldwide only by Sartorius, is the basis for the continuously high accuracy and high reliability of the balance.
The Sartorius Extend gives users more flexibility in the high-resolution range (between 1mg and 620g as well as 10mg and 6200g).
Thanks to the highly sophisticated digital compensation algorithms, the operator obtains reliable measurement results at all times - even when the balance is exposed to unfavourable external effects.
Fast and reliable work sequences.
Particularly for repetitive weighing applications in daily lab routines, fast and dependable work sequences are of essence.
In the case of many laboratory balances, complicated operation increases the frequency of errors, causing considerable loss of time.
By contrast, the new Sartorius Extend offers a simple and logically structured user interface and key function assignments.
Short, plain-text prompts in a choice of languages guide the user through the menu and cursor keys enable the user to quickly configure individual settings.
All keys have positive click action.
These features are rounded off by the balance's excellent, high-contrast and backlit display that is easy to read with a digit height of 15mm.
The level indicator is positioned directly next to the display so that the operator always has it in his or her viewing field and can conveniently check it.
The draught shield sliding doors on the sides as well as on the top and all stainless steel parts can be easily removed in a few simple steps for simple and thorough cleaning.
A novel coating on the housing enables it to withstand many common solvents, such as acetone or ethanol, which are used for cleaning.
For measurement data management, the Sartorius Extend demonstrates its practical capabilities here, too: with an RS-232C bidirectional data interface or an optional USB cable, all measused data can be easily transferred by the balance.
And whenever an ISO/GLP-compliant record or printout of raw data and calibration and adjustment data is required, the new Extend analytical and precision balances deliver these at the press of a key.
