balance weighs units in grams only. For additional weighing modes, check out one of our comparable models.

These complaints typically result in a Weights & Measures officials doing an inspection to verify the scale in use is Legal for Trade.
Most pawnshops, jewelers and metals buyers know they need a Legal for Trade Type Approved Scale, but these inspectors are now requiring the weighing scale to have two displays to meet the requirements of "direct sales".

Weight indications shall be shown on the customer’s side of the scale when used for direct sales to retail customers. The way to achieve these requirements is to purchase the optional display shown above (purchase here). The Mettler Toledo 72213564 remote display features a backlight. The display plugs into the RS-232 port on the back of the balance and the cable length is 6 feet.
