Mettler Toledo MX5 MicroBalance with 5.1 g Capacity and 0.001 mg Readability
Product Description
The Mettler Toledo MX5 MicroBalance is a high-precision analytical microbalance designed for critical weighing tasks in laboratories focused on biotechnology, molecular diagnostics, and synthetic biology. It offers a maximum load capacity of 5.1 g with exceptional readability of 0.001 mg, ensuring precise measurement essential for bioprocessing and gene editing workflows.
Key technical features include:
- Motorized glass draft shield providing controlled environmental conditions to reduce influence from air drafts and vibrations, enhancing accuracy for microgram weighing.
- Fully automatic calibration and linearization using an internal weight, maintaining high reliability with minimal user intervention. Ideal for applications requiring reproducible results such as molecular cloning and biomanufacturing.
- Integrated applications supporting normal weighing, piece counting, percent weighing, differential weighing, and density determination, with expandable software capabilities via downloadable applications.
- Two programmable SmartSens sensors permit hands-free operation, increasing throughput for repetitive workflows common in clinical diagnostics and synthetic biology labs.
- A touch-sensitive graphic interface (TouchScreen) enables intuitive operation and quick access to functions.
- Connectivity via RS232C interface facilitates straightforward integration with laboratory data systems, enabling efficient data logging and process automation crucial to biomedical engineering and live-cell imaging labs.
Technical specifications:
- Maximum load: 5.1 g
- Readability: 0.001 mg
- Repeatability (standard deviation): 0.0009 mg full load; 0.0008 mg at 0.2 g load
- Linearity: ±0.004 mg
- Sensitivity offset: 7.0×10⁻⁶
- Sensitivity temperature drift: 0.0001%/°C
- Sensitivity stability: 0.0001% annually
- Typical weighing time: 16 seconds
- Draft shield usable height: 55 mm (2 in)
- Weighing pan diameter: 27 mm (1 in)
- Balance Dimensions: 5″ W x 11″ D x 4.5″ H
- Control Unit Dimensions: 9″ W x 14.5″ D x 4″ H
This microbalance is widely used in biopharmaceutical production pipelines and analytical laboratories where precision and repeatability are critical. Despite current memory functionality issues (sold AS-IS for parts), the MX5 platform remains a benchmark for microgram-level weighing in biotechnology research and clinical quality control environments.
