Ohaus PX163/E Balance for Sale

Milligram balances are not all built the same.  It is vital to always buy the one that meets your weighing demands.  Many cheaper milligram balances on the market are made with a strain gauge loadcell which has certain dropbacks that make them inefficient in the laboratory environment.  More often than not, people come back to us for a more suitable solution and we always recommend an Ohaus force restoration balance and the Pioneer series is the most affordable unit featuring this type of weighing mechanism.  The PX163/E is the most affordable unit in the Pioneer series because it can only be calibrated with an external weight and goes up to 160 grams.  There is an internal calibration unit available with the same capacity and higher capacity balances are also available with and without internal calibration.  When on a tight budget you can choose what added features you want without sacrificing the integrity of the balance's values.

2 Line Display
A brightly lit dual line display shows the weight in an easy-to-read manner, while a dot-matrix second line provides additional information or guidance prompts to the user.

Durable Construction
Featuring a cast metal lower housing, metal sub-pan, stainless steel weighing pan and removable draftshield or side doors, the Pioneer is durably constructed for long-term use, and suitable for a variety of applications.

Communication Ports (RS-232, USB)
Standard RS-232 and USB device ports allow for easy connectivity to printers and other peripherals, allowing convenient capture of results. OHAUS’ free data collection tool (SPDC) provides a simple solution to import this data directly in formats such as Excel, Access, .txt, .csv etc..

Internal Calibration (Optional Feature)
Allows the balance to be quickly calibrated and adjusted with the push of a button, thereby eliminating the expense and maintenance of separate calibration weights.

Static Removal Bar (On Draft Shield Models Only)
A static removal bar along the top of the draftshield provides a convenient grounding location, allowing the user to discharge any static charge that may have accumulated prior to handling samples and weighing. This helps compliance with good weighing practices, while improving the stability and accuracy of results.
