Analytical and Precision Balances
The Best Balance For Basic Weighing!
The OHAUS Pioneer Series of analytical and precision balances are designed for basic routine weighing
in a variety of laboratory, industrial and education applications. Now with both internal and external
calibration models and the right combination of performance and features, the OHAUS Pioneer offers
uncomplicated performance for all your basic weighing needs.
Standard Features Include:
• Easy to Clean Analytical Draftshield — Pioneer’s draftshield is designed with all glass panels,
including three sliding doors. All panels are easy to remove and replace, and together with a
stainless steel bottom, make it fast and easy to clean.
• Bright Backlit Display — The bright backlit LCD display is easy-to-view in any environment.
• Selectable Environmental Settings — Three filter modes and adjustable zero tracking adjust
balance sensitivity to environmental disturbances, or application requirements.

Pioneer® Series Analytical and Precision Balances
Removable Doors Provide Convenient Access and Easy Cleaning
To address the ease of cleaning requirement often expressed by routine users,
Pioneer’s draftshield has been designed with easy to remove doors and panels.
Disassembly takes just seconds and all components including the balance housing
can be quickly wiped clean.
Periodic cleaning made easy helps avoid sample
contamination and extends product life. In addition,
a standard in-use cover provides added protection
against accidental spillage and helps minimize the
chance of damage to the display and keypad.
Should breakage occur, each replacement door or panel can be installed
in seconds.
Backlit Display Bolsters Visibility
The bright backlit LCD display provides ample lighting, making the display
very easy-to-view in laboratories with dim lighting.
Selectable Environmental Settings For Working in
Practically Any Condition
To help adapt the balance to real life working conditions, Pioneer is
designed with selectable environmental settings. When working in harsh
environments, the balance can be adjusted to compensate for vibrations
and other disturbances. Conversely, the balance can be adjusted for
working in slow filling applications where sensitivity is a must.
