1.0 Introduction
The TP Series Electronic Balance is a precision instrument equipped with exacting mechanisms in a compact body. The TP
series provides enhanced functions, including a counting mode for stock control of parts, a percentage mode for comparative
measurements given in percentages and a limit function for measuring constant quantities by consecutive weighings. Despite
its many functions, the balance is easy to operate and features user-friendly keys. Furthermore, the large liquid-crystal display
provides excellent visibility, and the instrument’s high speed and stability (intrinsic to a tuning fork design) help boost
operational efficiency.
Moreover, balances with a built-in calibration weight can be calibrated by simply turning the calibration knob.
