Scout® Portable Balances
Navigate and Operate the Balance Easily with the
Informative Touchscreen Display
Portable balance operation has never been easier, faster or as intuitive as
the new OHAUS Scout with color touchscreen display. You’ll navigate easily
through the Scout’s resistive touchscreen interface and icon-driven menu
structure, maneuver efficiently in and out of application modes, change
weighing units with a simple press of the screen and execute setup and
calibration functions in no time. The OHAUS Scout with color touchscreen
display creates a new level of unmatched efficiency and functionality in
portable weighing.
A real-time clock function keeps accurate time even during power loss.
Additionally, GLP/GMP tracking capabilities assist in the monitoring and
reporting of data.
Increased Efficiency and Productivity in your Facility
It’s all about accuracy and efficiency with the OHAUS Scout Touchscreen
balance. Stabilization time as fast as 1 sec means increased productivity
in the lab, or on the line. With improved resolution, you can count on
extremely precise and repeatable weighing results time and time again.
Scout’s Signature Durability Remains Unrivaled
You would expect nothing less from OHAUS than the most durable
portable weighing product - that’s why we’ve included our superior
overload protection rated at 10 times the capacity of the balance, high
strength stainless steel pan, impact-resistant pan support and integrated
transportation/storage lock. We’ve even ensured that the high quality,
resistive touchscreen is built to last. To complement our signature durability,
the Scout Touchscreen is designed to be stackable when utilizing the
included stacking and storage cover, which also protects the balance when
not in use.
Versatile Data Collection and Transfer
With expanded connectivity options now featuring Bluetooth®, the OHAUS
Scout offers more versatility for convenient data logging, communication
and remote functionality. Utilize the Bluetooth® accessory to remotely
control the balance from your mobile device or tablet for Android™*.
Perform functions such as Zero, Tare, Print, Power Off and more. Other
accessories include RS232, USB Device, USB Host and Ethernet. With the USB
Host option, you can simply save and transfer data from the balance to a
USB drive.
Draftshield Model Available
Scout’s ingenious draftshield (1mg models only) was designed with an
easy to remove top cover piece. This serves as a wind protection ring
which keeps the weighing surface stable in rough environments, while
maintaining weighing speed.

Weigh Below Hook
The integral weigh
below hook on the
bottom of the Scout
allows for density
determination or
specific gravity
calculations
Lockswitch
The Scout can be
locked into a specific
configuration using the
lockswitch
Built-in Application Modes
• Weighing—Determines the weight of items on the
pan in the selected unit of measure.
• Parts Counting— Counts the number of pieces on the
pan using a uniform weight.
• Percent Weighing—Measures the weight of a sample
displayed as a percentage of a pre-established
reference weight.
• Check Weighing—Compares the weight of a sample
against target limits.
• Dynamic Weighing—Weighs an unstable sample
load. The balance takes an average of weights over a
period of time.

• Totalization—Measures cumulative weight of multiple
items. Cumulative total may exceed balance capacity.
• Density Determination—Determines density of solids
or liquid. With the integrated weigh below hook, it is
possible to perform specific gravity tests for objects
that cannot be easily placed on the weighing pan.
• Display Hold—Manually holds the last stable weight or
the first highest stable weighing value on the display.
• Mole Weighing—Measures the weight of a sample
and calculates it into Moles automatically.
