The Only Scale in its Class with Touchless Sensors That Free Up Your Hands!
OHAUS raises the bar in value-oriented scales…again! The Navigator® series offers a unique combination
of features, including touchless sensors, ultra-fast response time and superior overload protection for
use in a wide variety of weighing applications. NTEP and Measurement Canada approved models meet
or exceed Class III accuracy requirements.
Standard Features Include:
• Now Available In Three Durable Housing Sizes With Models To Fit Any Application
• Touchless Sensors – The Navigator Series is designed with two touchless sensors that will free
up your hands so you can focus on handling samples. The touch-free control of the zero, print,
function or tare operations helps to avoid transferring sample residue to the keypad. In addition,
the two sensors can be set up independently to control up to 36 combinations of operations.
• One Second Stabilization Time – The Navigator Series is designed to accurately stabilize in less
than one second to provide fast and accurate weighing results, improving operator efficiency,
productivity and throughput.
• Superior Overload Protection – The Navigator Series is designed with a superior mechanical
overload protection system that allows the scale to withstand loads up to 400% of its rated
capacity. This prevents damage to the scale and helps it withstand undue shock or overloading.
In addition, an integrated shipping lock further protects the weighing cell from damage during
transportation or storage.
• Multiple Application Modes – The Navigator Series is designed for versatility. Multiple application
modes such as counting, percent weighing, checkweighing, display hold and accumulation/
totalization address a wide range of use in quality control, inventory management,
shipping and receiving, recipes and formulation, portioning and other popular
applications.

Series Portable Scales
With Its Best-In-Class Combination of Features, Versatility and
Performance, The OHAUS Navigator® Offers a Wide Range of Use
in Industrial, Food and Laboratory Weighing Applications.
Unsurpassed Cleanliness
• Designed with two touchless sensors that free up your hands, allowing you to focus on
handling samples and keeping the scale free from contaminants. The touch-free control
of tare, zero, print, function and display backlight helps to minimize touching the keypad,
thereby avoiding cross-contamination or unwanted residue on or from the scale.
• A polished stainless steel platform, corrosion-free plastic housing and spill-resistant
sub-assembly embodies a hygienic design that is easy to clean.
• The optional full-body in-use cover wraps over and around the housing and keypad to
guard against spills, dust and contamination.
Unmatched Productivity
• Amazing stabilization in less than one second to provide fast, accurate and repeatable
weighing results; improving operator eciency and increasing productivity.
• Includes an internal rechargeable lead acid battery that operates up to 100 hours (or over
twelve 8-hour days) of normal use on a full charge. With maximized portability, the scale
can be transported and used where power outlets are not readily available.
• A wave of the hand over the touchless sensors eliminates the extra eort or time to press
the keys.
• A bright backlit LCD display provides optimum visibility in any lighting condition –
indoors or out – with large digits and indicators that make it fast and easy to read the
weighing results.
Unbeatable Durability
• Built to handle serious loads, the superior mechanical overload protection system enables
the scale to safely bear loads up to 4 times its rated capacity.
• Constructed of a high-strength 304 type stainless steel platform and impact-resistant ABS
plastic housing that helps the scale stand up to years of use.
• The touchless sensors minimize keypad use, reducing operational wear and tear.

Applications
All Models
Laboratory and Research
Designed to be easy to clean, precise and simple to use in laboratory
environments. Simple set up, a spill-resistant housing, percent weighing
mode and security features make this the ideal solution for laboratory
applications such as formulation, quality inspections, testing and
experimentation.
Industry and Manufacturing
Designed to be robust, fast and accurate for ideal use in
light-medium duty industrial applications, including paint
and ink mixing, packaging, sampling and parts counting.
Up to 400% safe overload enhances protection of internal
components, with an ultra-fast, one-second stabilization
time to improve operator eciency and productivity.
Home Office, Commercial Business and Manufacturing
Designed to be tough, portable and reliable for ideal use in shipping
and receiving, home oce and warehouse environments. A display
hold mode holds the weight for viewing that would otherwise be
blocked by oversized packages. Battery operation, counting and
checkweighing modes also expand range of use for hobbies, inventory management, inspection and quality control.
Foodservice and Portioning
Designed to be hygienic, low-maintenance and durable
for ideal use in food service, portioning and prepackaging. Weighing units such as lb, oz, lb:oz (including
1/8 fractional ounce), kg and g, and percent and
checkweighing modes enhance its usefulness in behindthe-counter, prep station and kitchen environments.
