Ohaus Scout Series Portable Balance Accessories

Ohaus Scout Series Portable Balance Accessories

The Ohaus Scout Series portable balance accessories provide comprehensive connectivity, data management, security, and operational enhancement solutions designed to expand the capabilities and protect your investment in Scout Series balances (SJX, SKX, SPX, and STX models). This extensive accessory range includes 13 specialized components that address every aspect of balance operation, from data communication and storage to physical security and density determination. The RS232 Interface Kit enables legacy connectivity for data transfer to computers and printers, while the USB Host Interface Kit supports flash drive data storage for GLP/GMP compliance and traceability. The USB Device Interface Kit facilitates direct PC connection for real-time data capture and integration with laboratory information management systems. The Ethernet Connection Kit provides network connectivity for multiple users and centralized data management in modern laboratory environments.

Storage and security accessories ensure your Scout balance operates efficiently and remains protected in demanding environments. The Stacking and Storage Covers are available in both 6-pack and single pack configurations, allowing space-efficient vertical storage when balances are not in use while protecting against dust and contamination. The Density Determination Kit enables specialized applications for measuring the density and specific gravity of solid samples using Archimedes' principle with the balance's below-hook weighing capability. Security is addressed through two options: the Security Device (Laptop Lock) Black provides physical theft prevention, while the Security Device (Cable and Lock) Red offers flexible cable-based protection for various installation scenarios. The durable Carry Case facilitates safe transport between locations, while the In-Use Cover protects the balance during active weighing operations in dusty or splash-prone environments. The Impact Printer SF40A provides on-demand hard copy documentation, and the Auxiliary Display AD7-MD enables remote viewing of weighing results for improved ergonomics and collaborative work.
