Ohaus Scout SJX Portable Jewellery Scales 

The Ohaus Scout SJX Jewellery Scale is a portable balance specifically designed for weighing jewellery, precious metals, gemstones, and other high-value items in retail and trading applications. Available in both Internal Calibration (SJX) and External Calibration (SJX/E) models with capacities ranging from 320 carats (64g) to 8200g and readabilities from 0.005ct (0.001g) to 1g, the Scout SJX series delivers exceptional precision with stabilization times as fast as 1 second and high-resolution load cells with up to 150,000d resolution. Equipped with superior mechanical overload protection comprised of a high-strength stainless steel pan and impact-resistant plastic pan support, the Scout SJX can safely withstand loads up to 10 times its rated capacity, providing increased durability for demanding jewellery weighing environments. The slim design features a large 20mm backlit LCD display that provides operators with clear visibility of weighing results even in poor lighting conditions, while advanced weighing technology ensures reliable, repeatable results for accurate valuation and transaction verification.

Engineered for versatility and user-friendly operation, the Scout SJX offers multiple connectivity options including RS232, USB Host, USB Device, and Ethernet (available as accessories) for convenient data logging, communication, and connection to auxiliary displays for retail customer visibility. The ingenious "Pull & Push" manual internal calibration feature (on SJX models) makes calibration easy using an integrated steel weight, eliminating concerns about misplacing external calibration masses while ensuring the balance's weighing performance. Seven built-in application modes—weighing, parts counting, percent weighing, checkweighing, totalization, density determination, and display hold—provide comprehensive functionality for diverse jewellery operations, while 13 selectable weighing units including grams, carats, troy ounces, pennyweights, and specialized Asian units (hkt, sgt, twt, tical, tola) accommodate international trade requirements. The integrated weigh-below hook enables density determination and specific gravity calculations for gemstone authentication, while the security slot, lock switch for configuration protection, and optional draft shield (1mg models only) deliver professional-grade features. Operating on AC adapter (included) or 4 AA batteries (not included) with battery life up to 120 hours, and constructed with durable ABS housing, slip-resistant adjustable feet, and transportation lock, the Scout SJX meets IEC/EN 61010-1 product safety and IEC/EN 61326-1 Class B electromagnetic compatibility standards, making it the ideal jewellery weighing solution for jewellery stores, pawnshops, precious metals dealers, gemstone traders, and manufacturing quality control applications requiring certified accuracy and regulatory compliance.

  • Multiple Connectivity Options - RS232, USB Host, USB Device, and Ethernet interfaces (available as accessories) enable data logging, PC communication, USB flash drive data transfer, and optional auxiliary display for retail customer visibility.
  • 13 Weighing Units for International Trade - Supports g, kg, ct, oz, ozt, dwt, lb, grn, hkt, sgt, twt, tical, and tola units, accommodating diverse jewellery trade requirements and international precious metals markets.

  • Large Backlit LCD Display - 20mm high-contrast LCD with backlight ensures clear visibility of weighing results even in poor lighting conditions, with optional auxiliary display available for retail customer-facing applications.

  • Jewellery Retail and Sales: Weighing of jewellery, gold, silver, platinum, and precious metals for customer transactions, with optional auxiliary display providing weight visibility to customers during purchase.
  • Gemstone and Diamond Trading: Precise carat weight measurement of gemstones, diamonds, and precious stones with 0.005ct (0.001g) readability, plus density determination via weigh-below hook for authentication and valuation.
