6100g capacity with 0.1 readability and build to last with the Super Hybrid Sensor (SHS), since it is a rugged sensor by design, there is less chances for breakage.  If it does break, we can isolate and repair the portion damaged, thus minimize the repair or service costs and downtime.  Scroll fully down this web page and you can review all the specifications on the GF-8000 and learn all about this state of the art weighing machine.

People constantly call Precision Weighing Balances asking for better deals on our products.  We are an authorized A&D dealer and restricted from listing the GF-6000 for any lower we could potentially lose our A&D Dealership.  If you find the GF-6000 anywhere online for even a penny less, then it is doubtful you are buying from an Authorized A&D dealer.  You could be buying a gray market balance and it could be questionable if A&D USA would warranty the product.

If the GF-6000 is too expensive and doesn't fit your budget we do have some other models we highly recommend you review that are more affordable.

We offer the Sartorius GW7201 which offers 7200g weighing capacity with 0.1 gram readability.  The Sartorius GW7201 is packed with features and offers motorized internal calibration at a press of the button.  We have used both the GF-6000 and the GW7201 and the Sartorius is faster and best of all the Sartorius is less $$$.

Another unbelievable balance you need to review is the Mettler-Toledo JB8001-GA-F featuring 8100 grams maximum weighing capacity and increments in 0.1 gram divisions.  The Mettler JB8001-G/A-F is Legal for Trade, NTEP Approved, Class II balance while the GF-6000 is not.  In addition, this Mettler Balance offers FACT (Fully Automatic Calibration Technology), which automatically initiates the internal adjustment of Mettler balance whenever temperature changes risk affecting the accuracy of your weighing results.  All these extra features and best of all the we offer the Mettler-Toledo JB8001-GA-F for less $$ than the GF6000.

If price is absolutely the #1 factor in you purchasing a 6100 gram balance with 0.1g readability then we would recommend you take a look at the low cost EPB-10K (10000g x 0.1g) here.

A&D GF6000 Toploading Balance

The GF-Series offers all the spectacular features of the GX-Series except the internal motorized calibration feature has been removed.  Therefore, the GF6000 laboratory balance has the same display, features,  ip-65 rating, SHS technology except there is no internal calibration mass.  ISO 9000 procedures favor the calibration of balances with an external certified calibration mass.  A balance with internal motorized calibration weight is a nice feature, but costly.  Most balances with the internal calibration feature also offer external calibration.  External calibration is vital since it is much more convenient to send out the external calibration mass for recalibration/certification verses the costly fee of having the internal calibration mass removed from the balance and sent out for re-calibration. In addition, if you own several of the same balances just one external traceable calibration is needed for ISO compliance. Precision Weighing Balances always recommends that you purchase the calibration mass with any balance you select.  This allows you to calibrate the unit yourself without requiring the services of an outside calibration firm.  Best of all calibration couldn't be simpler.  Connect the AC adapter and warm up the balance with nothing on the weighing pan.  Then simply turn "ON" the balance, allow the balance to go through the power-up routine and then press and hold the "CAL" until "CALout" is displayed.  The display walks you through the cal procedure in less than 1 minute.  The entire cal is controlled by the user-friendly keypad.  The days of opening the balance and tweaking those potentiometers and trim resistors to calibrate a scale are gone with the advent of the digital circuit and EPROM technology first implemented by A&D Engineer's.

All A&D GF-Series come standard with built-in RS-232c and A&D WinCT balance communication software on CD-Rom to interface your balance with your computer.
