Performance notes
External calibration: all CENSA variants use external calibration; calibration weights and certificates should be specified with the quotation when required.
Readability: 0.01 g division makes the series suitable for routine precision weighing rather than analytical micro-weighing.
Stability: ≤1.5 sec stabilization time supports efficient repetitive weighing workflows.
Configuration notes
Battery operation: rechargeable battery / accumulator operation is optional and should be confirmed before ordering.
Software: data collection software and communication functions are available as options; confirm interface and PC workflow before quotation.
Pan size: source material contains two pan-size values; final delivered pan format must be manufacturer-confirmed.
Technical values are provided for product selection and orientation. Final delivered configuration, pan size, accessory set, calibration documentation and communication/software package should be confirmed through the official COLO.Science quotation or manufacturer-confirmed offer.

🧰 Operation, Options and Visual Support
Functional workflow
Routine weighing: prepare the balance on a stable surface, level the instrument, tare the container and weigh the sample.
Check weighing: use the built-in system function where pass/fail or target weight control is required.
Parts counting: suitable for repetitive counting tasks when reference quantity and unit weight are properly established.
Percentage weighing: supports comparative sample preparation and formulation workflows based on a defined reference.
Options and accessories
Calibration package: control weight, certificated calibration weight and certificate of calibration can be configured according to customer requirements.
Printing: optional thermal printer can support weighing record output when traceable paper documentation is required.
Software and data: optional communication software can support data collection and measurement process control.
Battery autonomy: accumulator / external rechargeable battery option supports approximately 48 h working mode autonomy where specified.
Configuration note — confirm options before quotation
CENSA is a model family with optional battery, software, printer and calibration documentation. The final offer should clearly state the selected capacity model, calibration package, power option, communication/software requirement and any required certificates.
📌 Selection Guidance
Choose by capacity
CENSA600: for lower-capacity routine weighing where finer handling of small samples is needed.
CENSA1000: for general laboratory weighing up to 1 kg.
Choose by workload
CENSA2000: for routine sample, container and material weighing up to 2 kg.
CENSA3000: for larger containers and higher routine weighing capacity up to 3 kg.
Choose by documentation
Calibration: add certificate and control weight when traceability is required.
Data output: add printer or software package when measurement records need to be collected.
