XPE26/M: Micro-Analytical Balance with Automatic Calibration
The Mettler Toledo XPE26/M micro-analytical balance is designed to deliver exceptional precision and reliability for demanding laboratory applications. With a maximum capacity of 22 grams and a readability of 0.01 milligrams, the XPE26/M is meticulously engineered to meet the highest standards of accuracy. Its features and robust construction make it a versatile tool for a wide range of scientific, industrial, and quality control tasks.
One of the standout features of the XPE26/M is its automatic calibration technology, known as proFACT. This sophisticated system performs internal calibrations automatically and at programmed intervals, ensuring that the balance remains accurate and reliable over time without requiring manual intervention. This feature is especially valuable in environments where precision is paramount and calibration schedules must be strictly adhered to.
The SmartTrac program enhances the weighing process by facilitating dosing in small increments to achieve a target weight. This functionality is crucial for applications that require precise material handling and formulation. Additionally, the SmartGrid weighing platform is designed to minimize the effects of turbulence, which significantly reduces stabilization time and improves measurement accuracy.
The XPE26/M is also equipped with the innovative StaticDetect™ technology, which automatically detects and compensates for static charges that may affect weighing results. This ensures that measurements are not only accurate but also consistent, even in environments where static electricity is a concern.
For user convenience, the balance features SmartSens infrared sensors that allow for touch-free operation, enabling users to control the balance without physical contact. This is particularly useful in sterile environments or when working with sensitive materials. The graphical leveling device provides a visual indication if the balance is not level, helping users maintain optimal measurement conditions.
The XPE26/M includes several built-in weighing modes, such as percent weighing, dynamic weighing, statistics, piece counting, formulation, density determination, and factor calculation. These modes address various laboratory needs, making the XPE26/M a versatile tool for different applications.
Security and data management are also priorities with the XPE26/M. The balance features a feedthrough for anti-theft devices and password protection for up to eight users, ensuring that access to the balance and its data is controlled and secure. The integrated TestManager software tracks Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and alerts users when maintenance or testing is due, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards.
The draft shield is designed for ease of use, opening manually or automatically at the push of a button and dismantling easily for cleaning. This design helps maintain the balance’s precision while simplifying maintenance. The StatusLight™ system provides clear visual feedback with green for readiness, yellow for warnings, and red for errors, ensuring that users are always informed of the balance’s operational status.
Connectivity is facilitated by an integrated RS-232 interface, with an additional slot available for installing other interface modules, such as RS-232, USB, Ethernet, PS/2 (for keyboards and barcode readers), LocalCAN, and MiniMettler. This flexibility ensures that the balance can seamlessly integrate with various data management systems and peripherals.
The Mettler Toledo XPE26/M is a cutting-edge micro-analytical balance that combines precision, advanced technology, and intuitive features. It is an essential tool for laboratories requiring high accuracy and reliability in their weighing processes.
