OHAUS PR1602/E PR Precision Balance, 1600g Capacity, 0.01g Readability, GLP/GMP

OHAUS PR1602/E Precision Balance — 1,600g Capacity at 0.01g Readability

Precision weighing at the bench doesn't require complexity. The OHAUS PR1602/E Precision Balance resolves to 0.01g across a 1,600g working range with a clean, operator-friendly interface — making it a productive daily-use instrument for general laboratory, educational, and light industrial tasks that call for reliable centigram accuracy without analytical-balance overhead.

Key Features

• 0.01g Readability at 1,600g: Centigram resolution across a broad capacity range, serving formulation, sampling, and parts counting where milligram precision is unnecessary.
• 1-Second Stabilization Time: Fast settling enables high throughput in sequential weighing tasks without sacrificing measurement accuracy.
• GLP/GMP-Compatible Output: User-defined project and operator IDs accompany printed results, generating documentation that satisfies routine quality management requirements.
• RS232 Connectivity: Built-in serial communication port supports direct connection to printers, computers, or LIMS systems for real-time data capture.
• 7.1-Inch Stainless Steel Pan: Generous 180 mm pan accommodates standard laboratory vessels, bottles, and containers without repositioning.
• Adjustable Environmental Filters: User-selectable damping levels allow the balance to produce reliable readings in environments with varying air movement or mechanical vibration.
• Security and Calibration Lock: A hardware security bracket and software calibration lock prevent unauthorized changes in regulated or shared lab settings.

Detailed Overview

The OHAUS PR1602/E Precision Balance targets the broad middle ground of laboratory weighing — where 0.1mg analytical resolution is overkill but 0.1g is too imprecise for consistent work. Repeatability of 0.01g and linearity within ±0.02g across the full 1,600g range mean the balance delivers coherent data whether weighing a small reagent portion or a fully loaded vessel. The ABS top housing is durable yet lightweight, and the backlit LCD ensures clear readings without a dedicated lamp. Auto-tare simplifies multi-container workflows, while the auto-dim function conserves power during idle intervals. Operating between 10°C and 40°C at 80% relative humidity, the PR1602/E maintains calibrated performance in standard laboratory environments throughout the year.

Applications

• Routine laboratory sample weighing and preparation across chemistry, biology, and materials science
• General-purpose formulation and dispensing where centigram precision is specified
• Parts counting and inventory management for small hardware or electronic components
• Educational laboratory exercises requiring consistent, documented mass measurements
