A&D Weighing GF-12001M Apollo GF-M Series APrecision Balance, 12200 g x 0.1 g

The GF-12001M combines a 12,200 g (12.2 kg) maximum capacity with 0.1 g readability, allowing users to measure relatively heavy samples while detecting changes as small as one-tenth of a gram. A&D specifies 0.1 g repeatability and ±0.2 g linearity, making it suitable for formulation, batching, manufacturing, quality control, and industrial laboratory applications.

The GF-12001M uses external calibration, so sensitivity adjustment is performed using an appropriate external calibration weight rather than a built-in calibration mass. A&D specifies 5 kg and 10 kg external calibration weights as applicable values for this model. This configuration can work well for facilities that already maintain certified or traceable reference weights as part of their quality procedures.

Yes. The GF-12001M is part of A&D's IP65-rated GF-M series, providing protection against dust and water ingress. This makes it well suited to demanding laboratory, production, and industrial environments where dust, moisture, or occasional spills may be concerns. IP65 protection does not mean the balance is designed for immersion in water.

The GF-12001M is designed for fast high-capacity precision weighing, with an approximate 1.5-second stabilization time in FAST mode under suitable operating conditions. This quick response can improve productivity when operators perform repeated weighing, batching, formulation, inspection, or quality-control measurements.

Yes. The GF-12001M provides USB and RS-232C communication interfaces for transferring weighing data to compatible computers and other equipment. The GF-M platform can also store up to 200 weighing results, helping reduce manual transcription and making the balance useful for data-driven laboratory, production, and quality-control workflows.
