Bring confidence to your lab with the Ion BM Series of micro balances. With a capacity up to 520 g, or with readability down to 1 µg, the Ion BM Series can handle even trace quantities of valuable or degradable substances with confidence.

The fan-less, integrated, direct current ionizer eliminates static and comes standard on all Ion BM models. The automatic response adjustment function is powered by the embedded sensors to deliver fast and stable results to compensate for environmental variables such as temperature, humidity, vibration and atmosphere.
