Ingenious DRAFTSHIELD
Explorer's draftshield provides ample access and visibility to the weighing chamber and features antistatic coated glass
Frameless, flip-top design provides unobstructed access to the weighing chamber The expansive side entry 6.3 x 9.4 in (160mm x 240mm) allows you to freely place and remove large weigh boats or other large vessels in the weighing chamber Antistatic coated glass helps dissipate static charges in the weighing chamber that could adversely affect the weighing results Side doors seamlessly glide on top-mounted bearings, helping to prevent any potential bind up when balance is left uncleanedEasy to install and remove glass panels and a stainless steel bottom make Explorer extremely easy to cleanA draftshield chamber light is available when the balance is used in low-lighting environmentsPractical TOUCHLESS SENSORS
Explorer features four touchless sensors for hands-free operation of print, calibration, tare, and other selectable functions
Hands-free operation - Improves weighing efficiency
- Eliminates sample residue transfer
- Minimizes contamination
Two sensors on the base and two on the display can be set up individually to allow for remote operationsCompletely re-imagined from the ground up, the OHAUS Explorer® rises to a whole new level.
Intelligent calibration
AutoCal™ ensures performance and assists with routine maintenance by automatically calibrating the balance daily
Fully-automatic internal calibration system No need for external massesEliminates cost to maintain external weightsSelf-calibrates the system when it senses a temperature change sufficient enough to affect weighing accuracy, or every 11 hoursIntuitive user setup
Explorer is the industry's most easy-to-use balance, featuring leveling assistance and instructional messaging for quick out-of-the-box setup and use.
Easy to view illuminated level indicator placed at the front of the balance Adjustable thumbwheels are easy to turn to level the balance Level assist screen helps users to quickly identify which thumbwheels need to be adjusted to level the balance Data Transfer Function helps to output data directly into Microsoft Excel Instructional messaging during applications use guides users through the weighing process User information menu allows users to quickly view and learn more about the available balances featuresUp to 11 operating languages make Explorer's Intuitive User Setup truly universalThe Explorer® is a revolutionary shift in the way users interact and operate a weighing instrument, all based on our ingeniously practical design philosophy
