INTRODUCTION
1.1
Description
The Explorer balance is a precision weighing instrument that will provide you with years of service if properly cared
for. The Ohaus Explorer balances are available in capacities from 120 grams to 35,000 grams.
1.2
Features
Modular Design:
Ohaus Explorer balances are composed of two interconnected modules: a Terminal and a Base.
Depending on the user’s needs, the unit can be operated with the Terminal either attached to, or remote from, the
Base, with a single interconnect cord 1 meter long.
Touch Controls:
Quick, graphical access to all control
functions, over a dozen applications and many features.
Touchless Sensors
: can be assigned functions when
activated: Zero, Print, Tare, Automatic
draftshield door, ionizer etc.
Statistics:
available in Weighing, Counting, Percent
Weighing, Check Weighing, Dynamic Weighing, Filling.
Ionizer (EX225D/AD and EX225/AD only)
The Ionizer generates bipolar ions continuously by DC corona
discharge separately from positive and negative discharge electrodes
and directs the ionized air onto the charged body to eliminate static
electricity. The generated ions are well-balanced in polarity and can
eliminate static electricity regardless of the polarity of the charged
body.
Static electricity
Generally, insulators such as plastics are prone to be charged with
static electricity when the ambient relative humidity is below 45%RH.
This may affect weighing and cause a measurement error of several
milligrams. The Ionizer can eliminate static electricity very effectively.
How to activate the Ionizer
The Ionizer can be activated or turned off by either the touchless sensors (see section 5.4.9) or through the
function icons by pressing the
Ionizer
icon on the application home screen.
