Navigate and Operate the Balance Easily with the Informative Touchscreen Display

Portable balance operation has never been easier, faster, or as intuitive as the new OHAUS Scout with a color touchscreen display. You’ll 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. The OHAUS Scout with color touchscreen display creates a new level of unmatched efficiency and functionality in portable weighing.

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 in your Facility

It’s all about accuracy and efficiency with the OHAUS Scout Touchscreen balance. 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.

Scout’s Signature Durability Remains Unrivaled

You would expect nothing less from OHAUS than the most durable portable weighing product - that’s why we’ve included our 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. We’ve even ensured that the high quality, resistive touchscreen is built to last. To complement our signature durability, 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.

Versatile Data Collection and Transfer

With expanded connectivity options now featuring Bluetooth., the OHAUS Scout offers more versatility for convenient data logging, communication and remote functionality. Utilize the Bluetooth. accessory to remotely control the balance from your mobile device or tablet for Android™*. Perform functions such as Zero, Tare, Print, Power Off and more.

Built-in Application Modes

• Weighing—Determines the weight of items on the pan in the selected unit of measure.
• Parts Counting— Counts the number of pieces on the pan using a uniform weight.
• Percent Weighing—Measures the weight of a sample displayed as a percentage of a pre-established reference weight.
• Check Weighing—Compares the weight of a sample against target limits.
• Dynamic Weighing—Weighs an unstable sample load. The balance takes an average of weights over a period of time.
• Totalization—Measures cumulative weight of multiple items. Cumulative total may exceed balance capacity.
• Density Determination—Determines density of solids or liquid. With the integrated weigh below hook, it is possible to perform specific gravity tests for objects that cannot be easily placed on the weighing pan.
• Display Hold—Manually holds the last stable weight or the first highest stable weighing value on the display.
• Mole Weighing—Measures the weight of a sample and calculates it into Moles automatically.

Calibration weights are included with models up to 620g capacity.
