Scout can Handle Demanding Classroom Environments

The superior mechanical overload protection system of the Scout is comprised of a high-strength stainless steel pan and an impact-resistant plastic pan support. This enables the balance to safely withstand loads up to 10 times its rated capacity, and survive in demanding classroom environments where capacity may be frequently exceeded. Scout’s unique stacking and storage cover allows the balance to be safely stored away when not in use. The integrated transportation lock protects the load cell from damage during stacking storage and transportation.

User-Friendly Experience Guaranteed with Backlit Display and 4-Button Operation

4 clearly marked buttons remove complexity, and guide you quickly and easily through balance setup, unit of measure changes, calibration and more. Poor lighting in the lab or classroom is not an issue with the new Scout. The large, bright backlit LCD display improves readability in conditions where lighting is poor, and makes it easy to see the weighing results from a distance.

Expanded Connectivity Options Allow for a More Modern Weighing Experience

Scout has multiple connectivity options – RS232, USB Host, USB Device, Ethernet and Bluetooth®*. With expanded connectivity options, 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. With the USB Host option, you can simply save and transfer data from the balance to a USB drive.

Draft shield Model Available

Scout’s ingenious draftshield (1mg model 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.
