A&D GF-224A Apollo Analytical Balance, 220 g x 0.1 mg, External Calibration

Description

A&D GF-224A Apollo Analytical Balance: 220 g × 0.1 mg

The A&D Weighing GF-224A is the 220 g model in A&D’s Apollo GF-A analytical series. It weighs up to 220 g in 0.1 mg steps with A&D’s Super Hybrid Sensor and calibrates with an external weight.

A&D’s ECL (Electronically Controlled Load) checks the balance’s repeatability in about 90 seconds without external weights. Impact shock detection shows and records shocks to the pan, and password protection keeps settings locked.

Key Features

• 220 g × 0.1 mg; repeatability 0.1 mg; linearity ±0.2 mg
• External calibration with a user-selected weight (not included)
• ECL self-check of repeatability in about 90 seconds
• Impact shock detection (ISD) and recorder
• Flow rate display and comparator for pumps and dispensers
• Ø90 mm stainless pan and glass breeze break
• RS-232C and USB standard; USB cable included
• Counting, percent, density, statistics, data memory, and password protection
• Underhook and 5-year A&D warranty

Applications

Analytical and Pharmaceutical Labs

Weigh standards, samples, and APIs to 0.1 mg with GLP output and repeatability checks.

Quality Control and Teaching

Use statistics, comparator, and data memory to document results.

Jewelry and Gems

Weigh gemstones, findings, and jewelry in carats, pennyweight, and troy ounces. The balance is built for analytical weighing; for buying or selling precious metals by weight, choose an NTEP Class I balance such as the A&D GX-324AN.

Calibration Options from MNM Scales

Get your GF-224A calibrated and ready to use on day one. Add either option to your order, and our TDA-certified technicians calibrate it in-house before it ships:

• In-house calibration with certificate, using NIST-tested weights: $95. We calibrate and verify your GF-224A with NIST-tested weights and include a calibration certificate, so it arrives set up and accurate. Add $95 calibration to cart
• NIST calibration with a NIST-traceable certificate: $395. Full calibration documented on a NIST-traceable certificate, for analytical labs, QC programs, and audits that need a paper trail. Add $395 NIST calibration to cart

We also recalibrate scales and balances you already own, by mail-in or in our shop, with on-site service across Houston and the surrounding area. Request calibration or call (832) 290-3120.

Frequently Asked Questions

GF-224A vs. GX-224A?

Same 220 g × 0.1 mg balance. The GX-224A adds a built-in calibration weight; the GF-224A calibrates with an external weight.

What is ECL?

Electronically Controlled Load: the balance tests its own repeatability in about 90 seconds, with no test weights needed.

Which Apollo model is legal for trade?

The GX-324AN is NTEP Class I approved for selling by weight; the GF-224A is made for lab and QC weighing.

Can MNM Scales calibrate the GF-224A before it ships?

Yes. Choose in-house calibration with a certificate, using NIST-tested weights, for $95, or NIST calibration with a NIST-traceable certificate for $395.
