Sartorius MC-5 Microbalance with 5.1g Capacity and 1 µg Readability
Product Description
The Sartorius MC-5 Microbalance is a precision laboratory instrument designed for ultra-sensitive mass measurement, essential in biotechnology, pharmaceutical analysis, and molecular diagnostics. It features a maximum capacity of 5.1 g with a readability of 1 µg, enabling accurate detection of minute mass variations critical in bioprocessing and gene editing workflows.
Key technical specifications include:
- Capacity: 5.1 g
- Readability: 1 microgram (µg)
- Linearity: ±2 µg within 0–500 µg range
- Response Time: Standard 10 seconds; faster IQ mode reduces to approx. 2.5 seconds
- Pan Size: 3 x 3 cm circular weighing pan
- Weighing Chamber Dimensions: 4.8 x 12 cm
The microbalance comprises two separate units: the weighing platform and a detached control/display module, minimizing heat and vibration interference that could affect precision measurements. The motorized draftshield protects samples from air currents and environmental disturbances, enhancing weighing stability in sensitive applications such as synthetic biology research and biomanufacturing quality control.
Additional features enhance laboratory usability and data integration:
- Self-calibration for reliable, repeatable measurements
- Intuitive control panel with mechanical keys and bright backlit display
- RS232 interface for seamless connection to laboratory information management systems (LIMS)
- Motorized or manual draftshield operation for flexible sample handling
The Sartorius MC-5 microbalance is widely used in clinical diagnostics, materials science, and live-cell imaging research laboratories where precise microgram-level weighing is critical. Its robust design and advanced features support complex biotechnology applications, making it essential for high-accuracy mass measurement and molecular biology workflows requiring rigorous sample control.
