PM400 Precision Balance - High Accuracy and Versatility
The PM400 by Mettler Toledo represents the pinnacle of weighing technology, offering top-notch precision and adaptability. Designed to meet the highest standards, the PM400 provides readability of 0.001 g, making it ideal for applications requiring meticulous detail. With a maximum weighing capacity of 410 g, this balance can handle a wide range of sample sizes while maintaining exceptional accuracy.
One of the PM400's standout features is its adaptability to different environments and weighing conditions. It includes a vibration adapter that effectively reduces the impact of external vibrations, ensuring stable and reliable measurements. Additionally, the weighing process adapter allows for customization of the balance for specific weighing tasks, enhancing its versatility and operational efficiency.
The balance integrates METTLER DeltaTrac, a sophisticated graphical display system that offers a clear and comprehensive view of the weighing process. This feature simplifies the management of complex weighing tasks and improves measurement accuracy. The PM400 supports up to nine different weighing units and can perform weighing in percentage (%), which is particularly useful for precise formulations and quality control processes.
Another key feature is the Plus/Minus weighing capability provided by METTLER DeltaTrac, which facilitates tolerance checking and fill level control. This functionality is crucial for quality control applications, enabling users to easily verify that products meet the required specifications.
The PM400 also offers efficient piece counting, making it a valuable tool for inventory management and production monitoring. It includes functions for animal weighing, addressing the need for accurate measurements in challenging and unstable environments—essential for veterinary and research applications.
Data management and integration are streamlined with built-in serial interfaces (RS232C and CL) and the GM-Bus gateway, which ensures seamless connection with METTLER TOLEDO peripherals. This allows for efficient data transfer and balance control through a defined command set, catering to various laboratory and industrial needs.
Specialized applications of the PM400 include additive weighing, density determination, differential weighing, and dosing. It supports tasks such as weighing to target weight, formulation, mixing of substances, and statistical quality control. The balance's programmability and high accuracy make it suitable for even the most demanding weighing conditions, including underfloor weighing and operations in contaminated environments.
With a calibration weight of 200 g / F1 and adjustable operation for 110V or 220V, the PM400 is designed to deliver reliable performance across different environments and power configurations. The balance's specifications, including a reproducibility of 0.001 g and a stabilization time of 1.5 to 3 seconds, ensure precise and consistent results for critical measurements.
