SARTORIUS: The new LA Reference series of laboratory balances was designed to offer precision weighing in 28 models with capacities ranging from 0.1 mg to 34 kg. A proprietary monolithic weigh cell combined with microprocessor control in each unit reduces the influence of inside and outside temperature fluctuations. The balances have 14 application programs, and all models offer a feature called isoCAL for fully automatic calibration and adjustment functions at regular or programmed intervals, along with storage for up to 50 ISO/GLP-compliant records of these tests. Other advanced applications are available, such as the integrated SQmin program, which provides compliance to USP section 41 for minimum sample quantity determinations.
