Description

A&D Apollo Series Precision Balance GX-A & GF-A; Take weighing precision and protection to new heights!

The A&D Apollo Precision Balance range is engineered for high-performance weighing with speed, accuracy, and smart automation. Featuring the innovative Smart SHS sensor and ECL (Electronically Controlled Load) technology, these precision balances allow quick, internal repeatability testing, eliminating the need for external calibration weights and reducing testing time to just 1.5 minutes.

Enhance accuracy with the Auto Precision Assessment (APA), which calculates standard deviation and minimum weight automatically at the touch of a button. The built-in Dia-Check system performs diagnostic checks with clear pass/fail indicators, while Impact Shock Detection (ISD) visually alerts users to sensor shocks across four levels—ensuring long-term performance and protection.

Key features of the Apollo Precision Balance include:

  • Internal (GX-A) or external (GF-A) calibration options

  • User Access Control (UAC) for data integrity and security

  • Flow Rate Display (FRD) in g/s, g/m, g/h or mL/s, mL/m, mL/h with memory for 10 sample densities

  • Statistical Calculation Function (SCF) for on-screen or printed data analysis

  • USB and RS232 interfaces with configurable output (UFC) for seamless integration with data systems

  • Optional Large Glass Breeze Break and built-in Static Eliminator

Whether for laboratory, manufacturing, or automated processes, the A&D Apollo delivers unparalleled precision, speed, and reliability—making it the ideal precision balance for demanding environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please see below for answers to frequently asked questions.

A calibration certificate proves the accuracy of your weighing equipment. It is very likely that if accuracy matters in your workplace, certification will be required by your industry regulators. They are straightforward to get hold of though. Just ask our team.

If you are trading or transacting anything by weight, you will probably need to demonstrate your weighing equipment is verified for trade use. This gives your customers confidence in your business and will make sure buying and selling run smoothly. We can help get you with relevant approvals for your equipment.

The answer will vary depending on how your equipment is used. As a minimum, we typically recommend once a year but our team can provide advice based on your individual circumstances.

The International Organization of Legal Metrology (OIML) has established standards for the classification of calibration test weights. Varying from E0 & E1, which are the most accurate to M2 which are commonly used for calibrating platform scales, floor scales and other industrial weighing instruments.

As a rough guide we have listed desired accuracy against class below.

+/- 0.1% – UNclassed Proof Load Test Weights
+/- 0.05% – M3 (Check/calibrate coarse scales)
+/- 0.005% – M1 (Check/calibrate standard scales)
+/- 0.0015% – F2 (Check/calibrate portable balances)
+/- 0.0005% – F1 (Check/calibrate precision balances)
+/- 0.00015% – E2 (Check/calibrate analytical balances)

The choice of weight class depends on the intended use and the level of accuracy required for a particular application. If you’re unsure, talk to our team who can advise you on the right class for your equipment.

If you’re sending a scale back to us for recalibration, it is ideal to use the original packaging. If this is not available choose a sturdy well-padded box to avoid shocks. Where possible, protect the load sensor by removing the weighing pan and any under-pan support and pack these separately in the box. You may be able to use the equipment’s locking pins or screws too.

Do ensure all the paperwork, including your contact details, is included to ensure we can return it once calibration is complete.
