Key Features Shimadzu ATY-224R Analytical Balance

The Shimadzu ATY-224R Analytical Balance comes packed with features that make laboratory weighing faster, smarter, and more reliable.

UniBloc Weighing Sensor Technology Shimadzu developed the UniBloc one-piece aluminum alloy mass sensor in 1989, and this balance uses an advanced version of that technology. The single-piece construction replaces 70 individual parts found in conventional electromagnetic balance sensors. This design delivers outstanding temperature stability, fast response times, and excellent corner-load performance. The compact, uniform structure also resists deterioration and physical shock better than traditional sensor assemblies.

External Calibration with Touch-Key Operation The ATY-224R model uses external calibration weights for span calibration. Users can trigger calibration easily by pressing the calibration key. The balance automatically prints an external calibration report and generates GLP (Good Laboratory Practice) compliant output to support regulatory documentation requirements.

Three-Side Sliding Draft Shield Doors The three-side sliding draft shield design allows users to access the weighing pan from the front, left, and right sides. This configuration speeds up sample loading and reduces measurement wait times in busy laboratory environments.

Multiple Weighing Units Users can switch between grams (g), milligrams (mg), carats (ct), ounces (oz), and other custom units as the application requires. This flexibility makes the balance suitable for diverse laboratory environments.

Power Saving Function The balance activates a power-saving mode automatically after a period of inactivity. This feature extends the life of the instrument and reduces energy consumption in the laboratory.

Compact and Durable Construction At approximately 6.0 kg and with dimensions of W213 × D356 × H338 mm, the ATY-224R occupies minimal bench space while providing a generous 91mm diameter pan. The AC adapter accepts 100–240V AC input at 50/60 Hz, making it fully compatible with Bangladesh’s power supply (220V, 50 Hz).

 

Applications

The Shimadzu ATY-224R Analytical Balance serves a wide range of laboratory and industrial applications across Bangladesh.

Pharmaceutical Research and Production Pharmaceutical laboratories use this balance to weigh active pharmaceutical ingredients, excipients, and finished dosage forms during formulation development and quality control. The GLP output function supports regulatory compliance requirements under national and international pharmaceutical standards.

Chemical Research and Analysis Chemistry laboratories at research institutes and universities use this balance to measure reagents, prepare standard solutions, and weigh reaction substrates accurately. The 0.1mg readability ensures analytical-grade precision for all chemical weighing tasks.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• Q1: What is the maximum weighing capacity of the Shimadzu ATY-224R Analytical Balance? The Shimadzu ATY-224R Analytical Balance has a maximum weighing capacity of 220 grams.
• Q2: What is the readability of the Shimadzu ATY-224R? The ATY-224R provides a readability of 0.1 mg (0.0001 g), making it suitable for analytical-grade measurements.
• Q3: Does the ATY-224R have internal or external calibration? The ATY-224R uses external calibration weights. Users perform span calibration using an appropriate external calibration weight and trigger the process by pressing the calibration key on the balance.
• Q4: What is the difference between the ATY-224R and the ATX-224R? The ATX-224R includes a built-in internal calibration weight for automated self-calibration. The ATY-224R uses an external calibration weight. Both models share the same 220g capacity, 0.1mg readability, dimensions, and interface options. Laboratories with strict automated calibration requirements typically choose the ATX model, while those with external calibration weights or budget considerations often choose the ATY model.
• Q5: Does this balance work with Bangladesh’s standard 220V power supply? The AC adapter accepts input from 100–240V AC at 50/60 Hz and delivers 12V DC output to the balance. This means the ATY-224R works perfectly with Bangladesh’s standard 220V, 50Hz power supply without any voltage converter.
