A&D Apollo GX-A(E/WP) & GF-A(WP) Series

Advanced-Level Analytical/Precision Balances

Taking Weighing Precision and Protection to New Height

 

  • Impact shock detection (ISD) providing feedback to prevent damage to the weight sensor
  • Electronically controlled load (ECL) that enables precision management without using an external weight
  • Flow rate display (FRD) that makes calculating and recording flow rates easier and more accurate

Features

  • Impact shock detection (ISD) providing feedback to prevent damage to the weight sensor*1
  • Electronically controlled load (ECL) that enables precision management without using an external weight*1
  • Flow rate display (FRD) that makes calculating and recording flow rates easier and more accurate*2
  • IP65 dust and waterproof (GX-AWP/GF-AWP)
  • Smart super hybrid sensor (Smart SHS) that realizes fast stabilization, long-term durability and low cost of ownership
  • Shock logging function that records up to 50 adverse impact loads with a timestamp for later inspection
  • Cushioning under the weighing pan to mitigate impact shocks significantly
  • Protection against vertical and transverse static overloading
  • Flow rate comparator that indicates whether the flow rate is within the designated limits
  • Tare memory function that saves the tare value in non-volatile memory
  • Built-in fanless ionizer with Quick Ion® technology and external IR switch (GX-AE)
  • Large and detachable, antistatic glass breeze break (0.0001 g models)
  • Retractable doors that fold into the back, requiring no extra space at the rear
  • Automatic self calibration in response to temperature changes or according to set schedules (GX-AE/GX-A/GX-AWP)
  • Automatic minimum weight calculation with either ECL or an actual, external weight
  • Alert function to ensure that the measured quantity is not smaller than the set minimum weight
  • Selectable response characteristics for trading faster weighing speed for higher display stability or vice versa
  • Large, front-mounted spirit level with LED illumination
  • Easy-to-adjust leveling feet with thumbwheels
  • User access control (UAC) that password-protects the balance from misuse
  • GLP/GMP/GCP/ISO compliant output to meet documentation requirements
  • Universal Flexi Coms (UFC) to customize printout content and layout*3
  • Gross/Net/Tare output
  • Data memory function to save weighing results, calibration results and unit masses to be used in counting mode in the device itself
  • Counting mode with the Automatic Counting Accuracy Improvement (ACAI) function
  • Percent mode function for target weighing or checking sample variation
  • Animal weighing (average & hold) function for weighing moving objects
  • Statistical calculation function (SCF) to facilitate the analysis of measurements
  • Five-level comparator function with buzzer
  • Auto power ON and OFF functions
  • Density determination function (optional density determination kits available for the 0.0001/0.001 g models)
  • Underhook for weighing a magnetic material as well as measuring density

*1 Patented *2 For graphing weight and flow rate changes in real time *3 For editing and sending UFC setting commands

 

External Input/Output

  • RS-232C interface (standard)
  • Quick/bi-directional USB interface*4 (standard)
  • 2nd RS-232C interface (optional)
  • Comparator relay output/buzzer/external key input interface (optional)
  • Analog (0-1/0.2-1 V) output interface (optional)
  • Ethernet (TCP/IP) interface (optional)
  • External key input interface + the AX-SW137-PRINT foot switch (optional)

*4 Users can toggle between the Quick USB mode (plug-and-play with weighing data output to a PC only) and the Virtual COM mode (for bi-directional communication) using internal settings. For the latter, a driver (available for download here) needs to be installed on the PC (except for those with Windows 10).
