Laboratory processes often involve the handling of corrosive substances. These substances typically include highly concentrated acidic or alkaline compounds and depending on the concentration can attack the surfaces of laboratory equipment. For this reason, cleaning processes in many industries are often carefully validated procedures.
As a consequence, precision balances, for example, must be resistant to attack by corrosive substances. At the same time, the laboratory weighing processes involve accurate and efficient sampling which is a key factor for realizing high yields and analysis output.
For optimum weighing performance and use in the harshest conditions, METTLER TOLEDO has the perfect solution, which combines the resources from the Industry and Laboratory business units.
Excellence X platformsAvailable in three platform sizes, small, medium and large, with capacities ranging from 210g to 64kg and readabilities from 0.1mg to 1g the Excellence X platforms offer high performance weighing in the harshest of environments. The high quality chromium steel weighing pan and full metal housing are extremely robust as can be seen by referring to the following video:
Robustness prevents instrument downtime
- Cleaning is made easy thanks to flat surfaces and stainless steel weighing pan
- Quick stabilization of the balance speeds up the weighing process
Industry terminals
Designed for simple cleaning and maximum hygiene, the IND690 industrial weighing terminal with IP69 (ingress protection) is the ideal choice for demanding conditions.
The IND690 can connect up to 4 balances simultaneously and also meets the strictest hygiene requirements. Its stainless steel design completely seals the unit from the external environment.
Full Terminal and Platform Compatibility
- Precise weighing is a prerequisite for many processes, whether in industrial or in laboratory environments. The compatibility of the industry IND Terminals and the Excellence X-Platforms make the integration of the X-Platforms in any environment a viable proposition for a multitude of purposes.
- The high resolution and high precision of the X-Platform in industry offers unsurpassable benefits for a wide spectrum of processes.
- The complete scope of application functionality of the IND Terminal is available with an X-Platform.
The connection of X-Platforms to IND Terminals offers optimal capacity and optimally sized weighing pans for every working place. They are designed for integration into manufacturing equipment or can be used as stand-alone units fulfilling an incredible range of weighing capacities and readability- making everything possible!
