The new PGL, one of Adam Equipment's newest products, is designed to provide customers with a balance that can withstand the rigors of field or factory work, as well as the demanding laboratory and classroom setting.

With its all-metal casing and large LCD readout with date and time, PGL balances combine the solid construction and fundamental features of a high-precision top loader with the simple operation of a portable balance.

"This scale is perfect for so many applications," said Tom Storey, a spokesman for Adam Equipment. "It's portable and it's tough. Basically it's ideal for lab and field use as well as equally suitable for a school or university."

PGL balances come with ShockProtectTM overload, three-point protection that safe guards the balance from over loads, application modes for parts counting, percentage weighing, specific gravity / density determination and check weighing as well as 9 weighing units including one custom unit.

The standard RS-232 allows communications to printers and computers and the keypad has color-coded keys for quick recognition. A built in rechargeable battery pack allows the balance to be used wherever and whenever needed. The PGL comes standard with both the built-in battery and AC adapter.

With several models in the range with capacities x readability combinations from 200g by 0.001g to 20,000g by 0.1g, the PGL offers the most complete balance for a large selection of applications.

Adam Equipment manufactures and distributes a full selection of precision balances and scales for the lab, education, industrial, retail, medical and jewelry markets. The company, founded in 1972, is headquartered in England and has offices in the USA, South Africa, Australia and China.
