New precision balance with alibi memory

KERN & SOHN introduces a new precision balance to the market: The KERN PCJ is tailored for integration with Laboratory Information Systems (LIMS). It features a menu lock function preventing unauthorised access to the device. Within the balance's integrated alibi memory, weighing data is documented with date, time, and identification number. This enables the proper electronic evaluation and further processing of results for legally required weighings.

Advanced data documentation

Data and control commands exchange between the balance and PC or network can occur through multiple interfaces, such as RS-232, USB, Bluetooth, WIFI, or Ethernet. This is facilitated by the built-in KERN Universal Port, onto which the desired interface adapters can be simply attached.

The internal calibration circuitry is adjustable independently from the power source via battery operation and a knob. This feature ensures high accuracy and portability.

Meeting individual preferences

The balance's menu offers several customisable settings. For instance, users can determine button tones, assign a button with different functions for quicker access, and adjust the print protocol as needed.

With the PCJ, KERN introduces another balance featuring a standardised and user-friendly operational philosophy. Balances of this generation maintain consistency across products in design, menu structure, button functions, interface connection, and interface protocol.
