AP Series

Shimadzu analytical balances boast a one-piece UniBloc weighing sensor, which is now even more advanced.
The response time is reduced to about 1/5 the time of previous models.
The improved UniBloc sensor offers a response time of just 2 seconds, an improvement from 10 seconds with the previous model.

Smart Automatic Door™ Improve Work Efficiency

The AP series features automatic doors.
That means operators can continue working without setting down samples or spatulas, which can help shorten overall measurement times.

Doors Opened/Closed Smoothly and Quickly

Door opening/closing time is about one second.
The quick and smooth door action enables stress-free operation.

Adjustable Opening/Closing Distance Using Automatic Learning Functionality

The automatic doors include automatic learning functionality that enables freely setting how far to open/close each glass door.
That minimizes external air effects and increases operational efficiency.

Doors can be opened/closed by three methods, depending on preference.

  • Open/close by waving a hand over the left and right infrared sensors
    That enables door operation without touching the balance.
  • Open/close by pressing the left and right buttons on the front
    That allows opening/closing doors with a satisfying click sensation.
  • Open/close using the manual trigger function
    The glass doors open/close automatically after the doors are moved about 10 mm. That enables intuitive door operation.
