A&D Weighing GF-6001AWP Apollo Precision Balance with IP65 Ingress Protection & External Calibration, 6200g x 0.1g

The GF-6001AWP is IP65 rated, meaning its enclosure is designed to prevent dust ingress and resist low-pressure water jets from different directions. This added protection makes the balance particularly useful in laboratories, production areas, and other workplaces where dust, moisture, or routine cleaning may be concerns. IP65 protection does not mean the balance should be submerged in water.

The GF-6001AWP combines a 6,200 g (6.2 kg) maximum capacity with 0.1 g readability. It also provides 0.1 g repeatability and ±0.1 g linearity, making it suitable for applications where users need dependable precision while weighing samples considerably heavier than those typically handled by analytical balances.

The GF-6001AWP uses external calibration, meaning an appropriate external calibration weight is used to perform sensitivity adjustment. A&D specifies a factory setting of 5,000 g, with supported calibration weights ranging from 500 g to 6,000 g at specified increments. External calibration can be a good choice for facilities that already follow scheduled calibration procedures using traceable reference weights.

The GF-6001AWP is designed for fast precision weighing, with an approximate 1-second stabilization time in FAST mode under suitable environmental conditions. A&D specifies approximately 0.8 seconds with a 500 g load, which can help improve efficiency when operators need to perform many repetitive measurements during laboratory or production workflows.

Yes. The GF-6001AWP includes USB and RS-232C communication interfaces, allowing weighing results to be transferred to compatible computers and other equipment. This can help laboratories and production facilities reduce manual transcription and incorporate weighing data into electronic documentation or quality-control workflows.
