OHAUS STX421 AM Portable Balance — 420 g Touchscreen Balance Built for Speed and Simplicity

For routine weighing tasks where speed matters more than sub-gram resolution, the OHAUS STX421 AM Scout Portable Balance delivers 420 g capacity at 0.1 g with a 1-second stabilization time and a 4.3-inch color touchscreen. Nine application modes are accessible with a tap, making this a practical daily-use instrument across lab and production environments.

• Dual Power — AC or Battery: AC adapter included; four AA batteries available for portable, untethered operation.

Detailed Overview

The OHAUS STX421 AM Scout Portable Balance is optimized for the middle ground of laboratory weighing — samples too heavy for a milligram balance and too varied for a single-application scale. At 420 g capacity with 0.1 g resolution, it handles spice batches, small chemical samples, jewelry parcels, and production components with equal ease. The touchscreen interface reduces the time per measurement cycle, and the 1-second stabilization means operators rarely wait for readings to settle. Both linearity and repeatability are specified at 0.1 g, reflecting a straightforward, reliable performance envelope. Security and connectivity features mirror the rest of the Scout AM touchscreen range: calibration lock, security slot, and optional RS232/USB/Bluetooth accessories for data integration.

Applications

• General lab weighing with standard bench containers
• Food product portioning and QC sampling
• Precious metal and gemstone parceling
• Light industrial parts counting and component verification
• Educational laboratory exercises
