Mettler Toledo's latest range of Newclassic MS semi-micro balances is designed to enhance efficiency by shortening operation time by up to 30 per cent.
The company said it has also optimised the usability of its balance range with features for easy reading and cleaning.
Laboratory time savings can be achieved with the Newclassic MS semi-micro balance's Ergodoor, which reduces the weighing process to a single action.
This feature allows users to open the right door with the left hand or vice versa and simultaneously insert samples with the other hand for weighing.
Weighing results appear in large, bright digits on the balance's high-contrast display (HCD) that can be read from a distance or at awkward angles.
Programmable Smartkeys allow one-touch access to often-used functions, such as built-in applications such as formulation, per cent weighing or statistics and totalling.
The balances allow users to operate the systems in their own language.
A Quicklock enables users to rapidly dismantle and reassemble the draft shield to streamline cleaning and maintenance and reduce downtime.
To eliminate transcription errors, the results provided by the Newclassic MS semi-micro balances can be printed or directly transferred to the PC without the need for additional software, facilitating compliance with Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) and Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) standards.
Human error is further reduced with the system's built-in date and time function.
Newclassic MS semi-micro balances are equipped with the Hires Technology (HRT) weighing cell and Fully Automated Calibration Technology (Fact), which allows the balance to automatically perform adjustment and linearisation.
Adjustable feet and a clearly visible level indicator allow the balances to be stabilised.
