OHAUS NV2201 AM Navigator Portable Balance, 2200g Capacity, 0.1g Readability, GLP/GMP Compliant

OHAUS NV2201 AM Portable Balance — 2,200 g Navigator Balance for High-Capacity Portable Weighing

When sample mass exceeds what a 1,200 g balance can handle, stepping up to 2,200 g capacity without changing the instrument platform makes practical sense. The OHAUS NV2201 AM Portable Balance extends the Navigator's range to 2.2 kg at 0.1 g readability — maintaining the same compact size, 1 kg body weight, and 270-hour battery life as smaller-capacity Navigator models.

Key Features

• 2,200 g Maximum Capacity: Handles heavier samples — bulk reagents, large aggregates, or industrial materials — that fall outside the range of the NV1201 AM.
• 0.1 g Readability: Resolution matched to the application range, where centigram or milligram precision is unnecessary but reliable 0.1 g results are.
• 1-Second Stabilization: The fastest stabilization time in the Navigator portable line makes it suited to high-throughput batch weighing.
• 270-Hour Battery Runtime: Four C-cell batteries power the balance through extended fieldwork or continuous production-floor operation.
• GLP/GMP Documentation Ready: Optional RS232, USB, and Ethernet connections enable compliant data output for quality management systems.
• 10 Weighing Units: Includes grams, kilograms, pounds, ounces, troy ounces, carats, grains, pennyweight, newtons, and lb:oz for versatile multi-sector use.
• Overload Protection at 4× Capacity: Protects against accidental overloading up to approximately 8.8 kg.

Detailed Overview

The NV2201 AM mirrors the NV1201 AM in every physical dimension — same 230 mm × 70 mm × 204 mm footprint, same 1 kg unit weight, same 144 mm × 190 mm stainless steel pan — while extending the measurable range to 2,200 g. This makes it the natural choice when workflow requirements regularly push above 1,200 g but a dedicated heavy-duty platform balance is unnecessary. The 0.2 g linearity and 0.1 g repeatability are consistent with the readability level and appropriate for the applications this capacity range serves: industrial quality control, portions weighing in food production, and supply chain sampling. Auto shut-off conserves battery charge between uses, and the low-battery indicator gives advance warning before power runs out during a run.

Applications

• Industrial quality control of heavier components
• Food portion verification and batch weighing
• Bulk reagent dispensing in chemistry labs
• Supply chain incoming inspection at production sites

Why Choose the OHAUS NV2201 AM?

Operations that regularly weigh samples in the 1.2 to 2.2 kg range need a portable balance with matching capacity — without the extra bulk or cost of an industrial platform. The NV2201 AM fits that requirement precisely. Add to cart to expand your portable weighing range without sacrificing portability.
