GF-1200N NTEP Class II Scale offers the same reliability as the GF-1200 Lab Balance with additional embedded software conforming to US National Conference on Weighing & Measurement requirements for Class II balances.  A&D offers an extensive line of pharmacy weighing solutions which comply with most Federal, State and local USP Regulations.

The GF-P Pharmacy Scale can increase pharmacy efficiency and patient safety in the smallest to the largest pharmacies – assisting with processing prescriptions by counting, weighing or compounding.  Pharmacy employees can process compounds efficiently and accurately by enabling the pharmacist to quickly re-zero after the addition of each ingredient in a compound.  A digital pharmacy scale virtually ensures that the pharmacist adds the correct amount of each item .

The corner pharmacy knows they cannot be all things for all people and typically don’t have the expertise or capital to go head-to-head with the giant retailers who excel in large scale merchandising and managing.  To stay competitive and to differentiate from the big store pharmacy chains many independent pharmacies focus on the art and science of compounding.  Specialty compounding prescriptions allow people to work with their doctors to devise ways to make taking medicine less of a problem.

The following 6 models of prescription counting scales offer varying weighing capability and readability uniquely designed to cover a broad range of pill counting uses.

GF-200P 210g x 0.001g (NTEP Class II e=0.01g d=0.001g)
GF-300P 310g x 0.001g (NTEP Class II e=0.01g d=0.001g)
GF-1200P 1210g x 0.01g (NTEP Class II e=0.1g d=0.01g)
GF-2000P 2100g x 0.01g (NTEP Class II e=0.1g d=0.01g)
GF-3000P 3100g x 0.01g (NTEP Class II e=0.1g d=0.01g)
minimum unit mass for Counting mode is 3e

If you need an NTEP Approved Class II balance and the GF-1200N is too costly for your pocketbook we recommend you 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 for less money than the GF-1200N.  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.  The A&D GF-1200N can be calibrated externally only and the 1 kg calibration mass is a costly expense.
