AS X2 Series Analytical Balance with Touch Screen AS X2

The AS X2 series is an advanced analytical SYNERGY LAB line laboratory balance. The AS X2 is exceptional due to a range of modern construction and system solutions that guarantee reliability, precision and accuracy of measurement and make everyday operation easy.

Overview

The AS X2 PLUS analytical balance has a spacious weighing chamber that offers easy access to the weighing pan through its open-door clearance. This allows for the use of laboratory glassware of various sizes. The newly designed aluminium base ensures that the weighing system remains stable.

Thanks to the Dual-CLICK system, the weighing chamber can be assembled and disassembled without tools, and the guide design for weighing chamber panes makes cleaning the device hassle-free. Innovative construction solutions also enhance the balance's durability and reliability during long-term operation.

The latest touch panel, measuring 5 inches diagonally, is user-friendly, even when wearing laboratory gloves. The AS X2 PLUS analytical balances offer intuitive communication through a wide range of customisable widgets that can be configured according to user requirements.

Customisable screen options provide direct access to information and result from the home screen, and a complete set of buttons can be assigned to a specific operation mode for convenience.

The built-in sensors measure tilt and display graphic messages on the screen of the weighing device. The LevelSENSING system, in line with GLP and GMP, simplifies adjustments, ensures constant level control, and alerts users of deviations.

What is laboratory balance?

A laboratory balance is a precision instrument used to measure the mass of an object or sample. It is designed for use in laboratory settings and is typically more accurate and precise than a standard scale.

A laboratory balance typically consists of a weighing platform, a load cell to measure the weight of the sample, and a digital display that shows the result. The load cell converts the force of gravity acting on the sample into an electrical signal, which is then displayed on the digital display.

What is the difference between a scale and a balance?

While scales and balances are both used as weighing devices, their intended purposes vary slightly.

A scale is used to measure weight (weight = the force of gravity on an object on the scale), whereas a balance is used to measure mass. (mass = the amount of matter in an object). A scale is a general-purpose measuring instrument that gives an estimate of the weight of an object. They typically use spring mechanisms to measure weight and have a lower precision compared to laboratory balances.

A balance, on the other hand, is a highly precise instrument used in laboratory settings. Balances use load cells to measure weight and provide a much higher level of accuracy compared to scales. The readout on a balance is usually digital, and the results can be displayed in various units of measurement, including grams, kilograms, and ounces.

What are the appropriate conditions for a laboratory balance?
You should first install the balance in a workroom free of vibrations and shakes and where there is no air draft or dust. You want to ensure that the ambient temperature is between +15°C and +35°C while ensuring that the relative humidity is not above 80%. Place the balance either on a robust-design table or on a wall bracket that is both distant from heat sources and insusceptible to vibrations.
What is the difference between a precision balance and an analytical balance?

Precision balances and analytical balances are both types of laboratory balances, but they differ in their level of precision and the types of applications for which they are used.

A precision balance is a type of laboratory balance that provides accurate measurements within a range of ±0.1 to ±0.01 grams. Precision balances are typically used for routine weighing tasks, such as determining the mass of chemicals for routine laboratory experiments, or for checking the weight of small parts in industrial settings.

An analytical balance, on the other hand, is a highly precise type of laboratory balance that provides accurate measurements within a range of ±0.0001 grams. Analytical balances are used for more demanding applications, such as determining the mass of samples for highly accurate chemical analysis, or for weighing minute quantities of substances in medical and pharmaceutical research.
