OHAUS PX1602/E Pioneer PX Precision Balance, 1600g Capacity, 0.01g Readability, GLP/GMP

OHAUS PX1602/E Pioneer PX Precision Balance — 1600g Capacity with Dual Connectivity

Mid-range capacity weighing with traceable data output characterizes the OHAUS PX1602/E Pioneer PX Precision Balance. Covering a 1,600g range at 0.01g readability, and offering both USB and RS232 connectivity alongside GLP/GMP-compatible data output, the PX1602/E suits laboratory and industrial environments that need reliable throughput documentation at a competitive instrument cost.

Key Features

• 1,600g Capacity at 0.01g Readability: A practical range for weighing larger reagent batches, multi-component formulations, or animal specimens without sacrificing centesimal-gram resolution.
• USB and RS232 Connectivity: Dual communication ports provide flexibility to connect to modern USB-equipped computers and older serial peripherals simultaneously.
• Two-Line LCD Display: A secondary dot-matrix display line presents supplementary information — guidance text, accumulated totals, or GLP data fields — reducing the need to scroll through menus.
• GLP/GMP Data Output with Real-Time Clock: Timestamped printouts include project and user IDs, creating an audit-ready paper trail for regulated laboratory workflows.
• Six Built-In Applications: Basic weighing, parts counting, percent weighing, animal weighing, density determination, and formulation are accessible from the menu without external software.
• In-Use Cover Included: Protective cover shields the mechanism during storage or transport, extending the service life of the instrument.
• Calibration Lock and Security Bracket: Physical security measures prevent tampering with calibration settings in shared or regulated environments.

Detailed Overview

The OHAUS PX1602/E Precision Balance occupies a capacity tier above the PR Series without the complexity of internal calibration systems, making it an economical choice for labs that regularly calibrate against certified external weights. The 180 mm stainless steel pan accommodates standard 250 mL beakers and larger weighing vessels. Stabilization in 1 second supports high-throughput sample workflows in QC or formulation departments. The animal weighing application, with its dynamic averaging, is particularly useful for veterinary or zoology labs requiring repeatable measurements on moving subjects. Four operating languages ensure the balance can be deployed in multilingual facilities without additional configuration. The full-capacity tare range allows large containers to be zeroed at any point, maintaining accuracy regardless of vessel weight. Linearity at ±0.02g provides reliable cross-range consistency from light calibration weights to full-capacity loads.

Applications

• Formulation and dispensing in pharmaceutical labs
• Animal weighing in veterinary and research settings
• Industrial incoming inspection and batch verification
• Density determination of solids using the weigh-below hook
