OHAUS : What instruments for weighing, moisture analysis, centrifugation and mixing in the laboratory?

A global benchmark in measurement, OHAUS designs instruments that safeguard every stage of the modern laboratory. From analytical and precision balances to MB moisture analysers, from Frontier centrifuges to Guardian shakers and hotplate-stirrers, the brand combines metrological rigour, ergonomics and reliability.

Universities, the pharmaceutical, food and beverage and chemical industries, and QC labs: OHAUS delivers accurate, traceable results that are easy to obtain, day after day.

A pioneer in measurement for over a century

Founded in 1907 in the United States, OHAUS has been developing measurement solutions for over a century, renowned for their accuracy, robustness and ease of use. By continually expanding its expertise in laboratory instrumentation, the brand supports the evolution of scientific and industrial practices.

Now headquartered in Parsippany (New Jersey) and active worldwide, OHAUS supports R&D, quality control and manufacturing with reliable, scalable instruments designed for regulated environments.

Expertise and Areas of Specialisation

In the lab, OHAUS is synonymous with reliable measurement and a consistent, intuitive user experience. Its analytical and precision balances (Explorer, Adventurer, Pioneer, Scout) combine stable weighing cells, overload protection, internal or external calibration options and GLP/GMP functions for traceability. Clear interfaces and guided menus streamline daily routines and minimise errors.

For moisture determination in food, pharmaceuticals or materials, the MB analysers deliver uniform heating, user-programmable methods and built-in statistics, enabling standardised quality-control protocols.

For sample preparation, Frontier centrifuges cover a wide volume range with interchangeable rotors, ventilated or refrigerated models and integrated safety features. Agitation solutions include the iconic Vortex-Genie vortex mixers from the Scientific Industries brand, renowned worldwide for robust, reliable vortex mixers. The Guardian stirrers and hotplate stirrers complete the line-up with a strong focus on safety, parameter stability and repeatability.

Connectivity (RS232, USB and sometimes Ethernet), export and print functions, accessory availability and calibration services reinforce the positioning of OHAUS: durable instruments engineered for performance and documentation compliance.
