MC-10K Mass Comparator
The MC-10K is a high-resolution mass comparator designed for precise mass measurement and comparison. With a capacity of 10.1 kg and 0.001 g readability, this instrument provides extended resolution for measuring minute weight changes with heavy objects or containers. Equipped with specialized stabilizing functions, the MC-10K responds effectively to environmental disturbances while maintaining exceptional accuracy.
Key Capabilities
- Enhanced stabilizing filter that copes with drafts and vibrations for smooth, accurate mass comparison
- Simplified calibration using internal mass with one key press when environmental changes occur
- Internal mass value can be corrected as necessary
- IP65 protection rating for demanding environments
- Super Hybrid Sensor technology
- VFD display for clear readability
- GLP compliant data output
- Auto power ON and OFF functions
- Clock and calendar functionality
- Data memory function
Typical Applications
The MC-10K serves diverse measurement needs across industrial and laboratory settings:
- Management of liquids: resist inks on flat panels, coating materials on silicon wafers, solder pastes and sealing materials on electronic parts
- Management of powders: medicines in pharmaceutical manufacturing, discharges from feeders, wear volumes of metallic materials, cutting dust on mechanical parts, particles caught by filters
- Management of gases: fill ratio of hydrogen gas, gasified components
- Production line weighing as precision check-weighing sensors with wider ranges

Recommended Measurement Ranges
The MC-10K is suitable for mass comparison according to OIML classes:
| OIML Class |
Nominal Values |
| F1 |
1 mg to 100 g |
| F2 |
1 mg to 500 g, 1 kg to 10 kg |
| M1 |
1 mg to 10 kg |
| M2 |
1 mg to 10 kg |
Note: Only one of GX-04K, GX-06K or the standard RS-232C can be used. The MC-10K is not IP65 compliant with these options. Repeatability values apply when the auto-centering pan or an automatic weight loader is used under good environmental conditions. Accuracy values apply immediately after internal calibration performed under good environmental conditions for the weighing capacities.
