The MC-A and MC-M series mass comparators deliver significantly improved precision and stability over the previous generation, enabling reliable comparison of reference weights in calibration labs—whether in-house or service-based. Despite the performance upgrades, the series remain cost-effective, making high-end mass comparison accessible to a broader range of users.
Smart tools for confident mass comparison
Auto-centering pan to ensure consistent accuracy
One of the challenges in high-precision mass comparison is eccentricity error caused by off-center loading, which can compromise repeatability and overall measurement accuracy. The optional auto-centering pan addresses this by automatically bringing the mass to the center of the balance. Its dome-shaped bottom rests on three ball-tipped supports, allowing smooth movement to correct eccentricity errors. If an automatic loading system is not used, A&D strongly recommends this option for manual loading
Stable weighing through control of external disturbances
Mass comparators, due to their extremely high sensitivity, are more susceptible to various external disturbances. To help the MC-A and MC-M series fully demonstrate their true capabilities, A&D also recommends the following optional accessories
- Remote controller (AD-8922A) - Operate the balance without direct contact, reducing vibration caused by manual handling.
- Tabletop breeze breaks (AD-1676 or AD-1672(A)*1) - Shield the balance from drafts and minor temperature changes caused by air conditioning or operator movement. Made of antistatic panels to minimize static effects.
Extra decimal place for system integration and fine control
The MC-A and MC-M series offer extended resolution not typically available in balances of similar capacity. This extra decimal place enables accurate tracking of small weight changes—even with heavy tare weights common in automated systems for precise dosing, blending, and other demanding processes.
Impact shock detection (ISD) for reliable automation - The ISD function detects impact loads on the weight sensor and displays their intensity in five levels (0–4). High-impact events (Levels 3 and 4) also trigger an audible alert and are logged for review, supporting system adjustments to prevent future errors and sensor damage.
