Portable balance operation has never been easier, faster or as intuitive as the new OHAUS Scout with color touchscreen display. Navigate easily through the Scout's resistive touchscreen interface and icon-driven menu structure, maneuver efficiently in and out of application modes, change weighing units with a simple press of the screen and execute setup and calibration functions in no time.
A real-time clock function keeps accurate time even during power loss. Additionally, GLP/GMP tracking capabilities assist in the monitoring and reporting of data.
Increased Efficiency and Productivity
Stabilization time as fast as 1 sec means increased productivity in the lab, or on the line. With improved resolution, you can count on extremely precise and repeatable weighing results time and time again.
Signature Durability
The Scout includes superior overload protection rated at 10 times the capacity of the balance, high strength stainless steel pan, impact-resistant pan support and integrated transportation/storage lock. The high quality, resistive touchscreen is built to last. The Scout Touchscreen is designed to be stackable when utilizing the included stacking and storage cover, which also protects the balance when not in use.
