OHAUS CR621 Compass CR Portable Balance, 620g Capacity, 0.1g Readability, Stackable Slim Design

OHAUS CR621 Portable Balance — Reliable Gram-Level Weighing in a Slim, Stackable Form

When portability and economy matter most, the OHAUS CR621 Portable Balance rises to the challenge. Engineered around a compact, stackable profile and an enlarged weighing platform, this 620 g capacity balance supports accurate 0.1 g measurements wherever work takes you — from classroom benches to field sampling stations.

Key Features

• Extended Battery Operation: Up to 300 hours on three AA batteries, reducing downtime during extended field assignments.
• Enlarged Platform for Practical Loads: The 132 mm × 125 mm pan accommodates bulk samples and wider containers that smaller balances cannot handle.
• Fast 2-Second Stabilization: Results appear quickly so workflows keep moving without unnecessary waiting.
• Stackable Slim Design: Low-profile housing stacks neatly with other units for efficient bench-space use or compact transport.
• Transportation Lock: Integrated mechanical lock protects the weighing mechanism during transit, preserving calibration integrity over repeated moves.
• Multi-Unit Support: Reads in grams, ounces, troy ounces, pounds, and pennyweight, covering everyday scientific and commercial needs without conversion math.
• Dual-Power Flexibility: Runs on included AA batteries or an AC adapter (sold separately), adapting to powered or off-grid environments.

Detailed Overview

The CR621 belongs to OHAUS's Compass CR line, a range purpose-built for budget-conscious buyers who still require reliable, consistent results. The ABS housing keeps weight down while providing enough rigidity for regular use, and the slip-resistant feet prevent unwanted movement on smooth surfaces. Both mechanical and software-based overload and underload protection guard against measurement errors and potential damage when samples exceed the 620 g limit. Auto shut-off conserves battery during idle periods, extending each charge cycle. The stability indicator confirms when a reading is settled, eliminating guesswork. For labs or educators managing multiple units, the stackable form factor simplifies storage and transport considerably.

Applications

• Field sampling and environmental surveys requiring portable gram-level accuracy
• Classroom and student laboratory exercises across science disciplines
• Precious-metal and jewelry weighing in pennyweight or troy ounce units
• Light-duty quality control checks in small production or packaging environments
