Description

A&D Apollo GX-M / GF-M Series – High Capacity Precision Balances with Built-In Safeguards

The A&D Apollo GX-M / GF-M Series is purpose-built for professionals who require durability, data integrity, and intelligent protection in every weighing session. Developed by A&D, a globally respected name in precision instrumentation, this series blends industrial-grade resilience with laboratory-level precision to minimise downtime and measurement errors—even in high-throughput or high-risk environments.

Whether in a dusty factory setting or a GMP-compliant lab, the Apollo Series delivers consistent results with minimal manual intervention—thanks to features like automatic calibration, flow rate monitoring, and impact shock detection.

Built-In Protection for Industrial-Grade Reliability

  • IP65-rated for protection against dust and water spray—ideal for demanding environments like food production and chemical processing.

  • Impact Shock Detection (ISD) with a logging function records up to 50 impact events, complete with timestamps for traceability and inspection.

  • Cushioned pan suspension helps mitigate mechanical stress from unexpected shocks or rough handling.

Intelligent Features That Streamline Your Workflow

  • Flow Rate Display (FRD) and Flow Rate Comparator simplify dosing and material transfer, ensuring operations remain within target parameters.

  • GX-M models feature automatic self-calibration, triggered by temperature changes or preset intervals, ensuring stability in changing environments.

  • Tare memory, minimum weight alerts, and data-saving functions reduce user error and help maintain SOP compliance.

Fully Compliant, Easily Traceable

  • Outputs conform to GLP, GMP, GCP, and ISO documentation standards, enabling seamless integration into regulated workflows.

  • User Access Control (UAC) protects the instrument against unauthorised changes to settings.

  • Universal Flexi Coms (UFC) allows users to fully customise printout formats for audit readiness.

Suitable for a Broad Range of Industries

Based on verified manufacturer data, this series is suitable for:

  • Chemical and petrochemical laboratories

  • Pharmaceutical manufacturing environments

  • Food processing and quality control labs

  • Materials science and metallurgy labs

  • General industrial weighing applications

Its robust build and precision capabilities make it particularly well-suited for high-capacity, high-throughput applications, where both performance and protection are essential.

Feature Highlights

  • IP65-rated for water and dust protection

  • Impact Shock Detection + shock logging

  • Flow Rate Display & Comparator

  • Automatic self-calibration (GX-M only)

  • GLP/GMP/ISO-compliant output

  • Customisable printouts via Universal Flexi Coms

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.
