Description

With the A&D Apollo series we are taking weighing precision and protection to new heights!

The incorporated advanced technologies provide innovative solutions to the user.
The Electronically Controlled Load (ECL) technology enables users to perform a quick repeatability test internally without the need for an external weight. The entire process takes only 1.5 minutes versus traditional external weight procedures which can take up to 5-10 minutes, ultimately providing greater convenience and efficiency.

Standard deviation is calculated by the Auto Precision Assessment (APA) feature. A&D Apollo smartly performs a diagnostic system check or        Dia-Check providing a critical pass or fail indication.

The integrated Impact Shock Detection (ISD) visually indicates the magnitudes of impact shocks that the sensor receives at four different levels. This function provides real-time feedback to the user to prevent damage to the weighing sensor.

  • Wide selection including high-capacity, high-resolution, internal calibration (GX-A) or external calibration (GF-A) models
  • Newly developed Smart SHS weighing sensor featuring ECL technology*2
  • APA – Auto Precision Assessment. Automatic assessment of the balance performance. Calculation and display of Standard Deviation (repeatability) at the point of use without the need for calibration weights! Can be checked daily via a key press.
  • Automatic Minimum Weight Calculation and setting via APA function
  • Input minimum weight automatically via APA or manually using weights
  • Visual Minimum Weight alert
  • UAC – User Access Control, Administrator and Operator password access to ensure data integrity
  • Calibration via One-touch, Interval, pre-set times (3) or automatically in response to ambient temperature changes (GX-A)
  • ISD – Impact Shock Detection*1, 4 level shock detection with visual and audible feedback. Maintain the performance of your investment through correct use of the balance. Ideal in automated loading applications and ideal for operator guidance
  • FRD – Flow Rate Display*2, direct display of flow rate of a sample in g/s, g/m, g/h or volume flow rate in mL/s, mL/m, mL/h. Up to 10 sample densities can be saved to memory. Use in conjunction with the flow Rate Comparator to keep flow rates within designated limits
  • SCF – Statistical Calculation Function, display and print various statistical results on the balance display or output to a printer or PC
  • Standard RS232 and Dual Mode USB interface. USB can be configured for ‘quick’ mode (connect to PC without the need for software installation) or bi-directional mode
  • UFC – Universal Flexi Coms configurable data output, ideal for connection to data acquisition systems or barcode label printers etc.
  • Gross/Net/Tare data output, Tare memory, Underhook, Capacity Indicator
  • Large Glass Breeze Break GXA-10, optional
  • Built in Static Eliminator with Large Glass Breeze Break GXA-17, optional
  • Wide selection of Options and Accessories

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.
