A&D Weighing GF-8202M Apollo GF-M Series APrecision Balance, 8200 g x 0.01 g

The GF-8202M provides a maximum capacity of 8,200 g (8.2 kg) with 0.01 g readability, allowing users to detect weight changes as small as one-hundredth of a gram while handling relatively heavy samples. A&D specifies 0.01 g repeatability and ±0.03 g linearity, making this balance well suited for formulation, batching, quality control, manufacturing, and high-capacity laboratory weighing.

The GF-8202M uses external calibration, so calibration is performed with an appropriate external reference weight rather than a built-in calibration mass. A&D specifies selectable external calibration weights from 2 kg through 8 kg for this model. This configuration can be useful for laboratories and production facilities that already maintain certified or traceable calibration weights.

Yes. The GF-8202M has an IP65 rating, providing protection against dust and water ingress and making it suitable for demanding laboratory, production, and industrial environments where dust or occasional spills may occur. The balance also uses a large 270 × 210 mm (10.6 × 8.3 in.) weighing pan for accommodating larger samples and containers. IP65 protection does not mean the balance should be submerged in water.

A&D specifies an approximate 1.5-second stabilization time in FAST mode for the GF-8202M. Its Super Hybrid Sensor (SHS) technology is designed to combine fast response with precise measurements, which can improve productivity when operators perform repeated weighing, batching, formulation, or quality-control tasks.

Yes. The GF-8202M includes USB and RS-232C interfaces as standard, allowing weighing results to be transferred to compatible computers and data-collection equipment. It can also store up to 200 weighing results in its internal data memory. DSC lists optional Ethernet and wireless Bluetooth interfaces for users who need additional connectivity options.
