The A&D Weighing Apollo Dispensing Balance, 1600 g x 0.001 g (GX-1603A-GS; JMG/Cole-Parmer reference 11114-51) is a gravimetric dispensing system designed to provide direct weighing feedback for accurate dosing and filling with compatible digital pump drives. The system combines 0.001 g readability, internal calibration and pump-control hardware for automated dispensing workflows.
Key Features
- 1600 g dispensing capacity, combined with 0.001 g readability for precise gravimetric filling and dosing
- High weighing repeatability, specified at 0.001 g with ±0.003 g linearity
- Fast weighing response, with approximately 1 second stabilisation and approximately 0.8 second response for a 5 g load
- Internal calibration, supporting one-touch adjustment and automatic self-calibration based on temperature and time intervals
- Smart-SHS weighing technology, designed for rapid stabilisation and dependable precision weighing
- Electronically Controlled Load diagnostics, enabling an internal repeatability test without requiring an external calibration weight
- Flow Rate Display functionality, supporting calculation and output of mass or volumetric flow rate for filling and dosing applications
- Impact Shock Detection, providing visual and audible indication of impacts with date, time and shock-level logging
- 128 x 128 mm weighing pan, providing a practical platform for dispensing vessels and containers
- RS-232C and USB connectivity, supporting balance communication, data transfer and compatible computer connections
- Password-controlled operation, supporting up to 11 users and one administrator
- Multiple weighing applications, including percentage weighing, animal weighing, counting, density determination, statistical calculation, comparator, underhook and gross/net/tare modes
- Complete dispensing connection hardware, supplied with the balance, foot switch, pump control interface and 25-pin cable for connection to a compatible pump drive
- 25-pin remote I/O compatibility, allowing control of compatible digital drives equipped with a DB-25 remote connection
Benefits
- Improves dosing and filling accuracy by allowing pump operation to respond directly to measured weight.
- Supports repeatable automated dispensing without requiring a separate external weighing controller.
- Reduces routine calibration effort through internal calibration and automatic self-calibration functions.
- Helps detect weighing problems before they affect results through built-in repeatability diagnostics and impact monitoring.
- Simplifies dispensing-system integration by including the foot switch, pump interface and connection cable required for compatible drive control.
- Supports data collection and statistical analysis through connectivity and complementary WinCT-Dispense software.
