Platform balances are designed to provide quick and accurate mass determination in laboratory and industrial environments. They are available with a wide range of weight capacities to meet your specific weighing needs. Many feature a stainless steel weighing platform durable enough to handle loads with non-standard dimensions and shapes, while others offer under-hook weighing for a more versatile application. Some models even come equipped with an internal rechargeable battery and RS-232 output, so they can be used in areas without a power source. They are also legal-for-trade and feature backlit displays to ensure readable results in any lighting conditions. DSC offers a complete line of accessories for these weighing machines, including calibrationweights, anti-vibration table, security lock/cable, dust cover, printers and their related accessories, computer interface software, density determination kit, and more.
Calibration Weights
The proper calibration of your balance is vital for a successful operation. Whether you are producing critical products or performing quality assurance tests, a poorly calibrated scale can cause significant downtime and impact your productivity. Using the correct weights, along with regular maintenance by your local OHAUS Regional Service Center (RSC), will help ensure that your instrument is always ready to perform when you need it.
METTLER TOLEDO offers a full line of stainless-steel test weights for calibration of laboratory and industrial balances and other weighing devices. These weights are available in a variety of shapes and sizes as well as accuracy classes.
Certified calibration weights are traceable to a national mass standard. They are also accompanied by a certificate of calibration that details the tolerance limits and material density as well as environmental controls in use during the testing process. This information is critical to a successful weighing operation and must be documented for USP General Chapter 41 purposes.
Accessories
We offer a complete line of accessories to ensure your balance will be ready for work when you need it.

Please pack your balances and weighing equipment carefully when shipping them to an OHAUS Regional Service Center for repair or calibration. Poorly packaged equipment can be damaged during shipping without any visible signs on the packaging. Your package should be insured for the replacement value of the unit.
