Cubis II High-Capacity Balance
The Sartorius Cubis II high-capacity balance range weighs from 4.2 kg up to 70.2 kg with readability from 10 mg to 1 g on a robust stainless steel pan (400 × 300 mm on most modules). One modular premium platform lets you choose the weighing module and the display (MCA 7-inch colour touchscreen or MCE touchscreen). Stabilization in 1 to 2 seconds, isoCAL internal adjustment and built-in data integrity controls make it ready for demanding weighing in laboratories and production support.
Overview
The Sartorius Cubis II High-Capacity Balances are modular premium balances for heavy samples and large loads: from 4,200 g up to 70,200 g, with readability from 10 mg to 1 g. They are built for formulation of large batches, incoming goods control, dosing and quality control where laboratory accuracy meets industrial capacity.
Weighing modules (flat stainless steel pan 400 × 300 mm unless stated)
11201S: 11,200 g with 0.1 g (100 mg) readability. 20201S: 20,200 g at 0.1 g. 36201S: 36,200 g at 0.1 g. 50201S: 50,200 g at 0.1 g. 70201S: 70,200 g at 0.1 g.
36201P (polyrange): 10,200 g at 0.1 g and 36,200 g at 1 g.
36200S: 36,200 g with 1 g readability. 70200S: 70,200 g at 1 g.
32202P (polyrange, round Ø 233 mm pan): 4,200 g at 0.01 g (10 mg) and 32,200 g at 0.1 g.
Display and software
The MCA has a 7-inch colour touch display with an intuitive interface, basic weighing applications and optional licensable QApp packages; for high-capacity balances it is offered with a short distance adapter. The MCE has a touchscreen for routine weighing with the factory-installed basic applications and no licensable packages.
Robust and open
The modules have a flat stainless steel weighing pan without a draft shield, which makes loading heavy containers quick and easy. The weighing module measures 412 × 400 × 126 mm (412 × 400 × 159 mm for the 32202P) and weighs about 15.8 kg (17.1 kg for the 32202P).
Built for fast, traceable results
Typical stabilization time of 1 to 2 seconds and typical measurement time of 1.2 to 2 seconds.
Automatic internal adjustment (isoCAL), triggered by a temperature change of 2 to 4 K, and automated motorized levelling.
Technical controls for 21 CFR Part 11 compliance, an integrated audit trail and user management on the balance.
Connectivity
The balances have an RS232 serial port, a USB-A port for Sartorius printers and USB sticks, and a USB-B port for a virtual COM port and direct PC communication, so weighing data reaches your printer or computer easily.
Exact values depend on the module, so the table on this page shows ranges for the whole line. Tell our team what you weigh and how much, and we will recommend the right module and display and share the exact figures from the datasheet.
