Less to Worry in Educational Laboratories

Lab experiments and research activity involve many procedural steps, which often begin with chemical solution preparation. Such tasks within a learning environment require a sturdy balance that must provide fast, reliable results.

The NewClassic MS204S Analytical Balance from METTLER TOLEDO combines essential functionality and robustness with high weighing performance making it the ideal choice for student experiments. The MS204S is able to weigh up to 220 g with 0.1 mg readability delivering highly accurate and reproducible results for dependable measurements. Considering how errors tend to multiply, such reliability is especially important when the prepared chemical solution or buffer is later re-used in an experiment.

Educational and research laboratories require many students to share one balance so quick results and simple operation are vital balance qualities. With a settling time of 2 seconds, the MS204S delivers results in a flash and the intuitive user interface makes the balance easily operable even by untrained users. In the event of a spill, cleaning is also fast and simple as the draft shield dismantles completely in just a few steps without the need for tools. The robust metal housing is resistant to most chemicals and features a ridge-free design ensuring that aggressive reagents are cleaned away easily without causing any damage.

Learning from occasional mistakes may be effective for improving techniques and practical skills, but these mistakes can take their toll on equipment. Therefore, a quality balance that performs well under varied conditions is not only just what students need, but it also gives laboratory technicians and administrators less to worry about. As such, the MS204S is indeed a source of confidence and peace of mind for teachers, staff and students alike.
