The GF-1200
easily connects to a PC or a printer (AD-8121)
and with WinCT software (standard), so you
can import the data into your PC software, such as Windows XP Word/Excel
software. Scroll fully down this web page and you can review
all the specifications on the GF-1200 and even download the instruction manual on the GF-1200.
The GF-1200 also
can be purchase in a NTEP / Legal for Trade version(GF-1200N) for an additional $80 by selecting this option in the options section towards the bottom of this web page - "N" Version designates NTEP (Legal for Trade), but again this is an additional $80 option.
If you need an NTEP balance and want to look at other options be sure to review the Mettler-Toledo JB3002-GA-F which is Legal for Trade and features 3100 grams maximum weighing capacity and increments in 0.01 gram divisions. This Mettler Balance also 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.
Another balance to review before you make your final purchasing decision if you want motorized internal calibration is the Sartorius GW3202 precision balance as a affordable option to meet your weighing needs.
If price is absolutely the #1 factor in you purchasing a 1210 gram balance with 0.01g readability designed with a force restoration magnetic motor then we would recommend you take a look at the Acculab ALC-2100.2 Balance here.
The GF-Series
offers all the spectacular features of the GX-Seriesexcept the internal motorized calibration
feature has been removed. Therefore, the GF1200 lab
balance has the samedisplay,
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.
