A&D Weighing GF-3002AN Apollo Precision Balance, NTEP, 3200 g x 0.01 g

Yes. The GF-3002AN is an NTEP-approved Class II precision balance designed for legal-for-trade applications. It provides 0.01 g displayed readability, while the verified scale division (e) is 0.1 g for the approved legal-for-trade configuration. This makes it useful for businesses that need fine measurement resolution along with an approved instrument for commercial weighing. Local weights-and-measures requirements may apply before the balance is placed into legal-for-trade service.

The GF-3002AN combines a 3,200 g (3.2 kg) maximum capacity with 0.01 g readability, allowing users to detect changes as small as one-hundredth of a gram. It provides 0.01 g repeatability and ±0.02 g linearity, making it well suited for formulation, production, quality control, inventory, laboratory testing, and other applications requiring precise measurements.

The GF-3002AN uses external calibration, meaning sensitivity adjustment is performed with an appropriate external calibration weight. This configuration can be particularly useful for laboratories and businesses that already maintain certified or traceable reference weights as part of their quality procedures. Buyers who prefer built-in calibration can consider the GX-3002AN, which offers internal calibration while maintaining the same 3,200 g × 0.01 g capacity/readability combination.

The GF-3002AN is designed for fast precision weighing, with an approximate 1-second stabilization time under suitable operating conditions. A&D specifies approximately 0.8-second stabilization with a 50 g load. This quick response can help improve productivity when operators perform repeated measurements in commercial, laboratory, production, or quality-control workflows.

Yes. The GF-3002AN includes USB and RS-232C communication interfaces as standard, allowing weighing results to be transferred to compatible computers, printers, and other equipment. This can reduce manual transcription and simplify electronic data collection. The Apollo platform also supports functions such as counting, percentage weighing, dynamic/animal weighing, density determination, statistical calculations, and underhook weighing.
