Cubis II Precision Balance
The Sartorius Cubis II precision balance range weighs from 150 g up to 14.2 kg with readability from 1 mg to 100 mg, and polyrange P modules that switch to coarser steps at higher loads. One modular premium platform lets you choose the weighing module, the display (MCA 7-inch colour touchscreen or MCE touchscreen) and the draft shield. Stabilization in 0.8 to 1 second, isoCAL internal adjustment and built-in data integrity controls make it ready for demanding research, pharma and quality control weighing.
Overview
The Sartorius Cubis II Precision Balances are modular premium balances for precision weighing from 150 g up to 14,200 g, with readability from 1 mg to 100 mg: formulation, dosing, filling control, quality control and production support in laboratories. Dozens of weighing modules share one platform, so you choose the module that fits your sample size and readability.

5203P (polyrange): 1,200 g at 1 mg, 2,400 g at 2 mg and 5,200 g at 5 mg. 623P: 150 g at 1 mg, 300 g at 2 mg and 620 g at 5 mg. 2203P: 1,010 g at 1 mg and 2,200 g at 10 mg.
10 mg modules
14202S: 14,200 g. 10202S: 10,200 g. 8202S: 8,200 g. 6202S: 6,200 g. 5202S: 5,200 g. 4202S: 4,200 g. 2202S: 2,200 g. 1202S: 1,200 g.
14202P (polyrange): 3,500 g at 10 mg, 7,000 g at 20 mg and 14,200 g at 50 mg. 6202P: 1,500 g at 10 mg, 3,000 g at 20 mg and 6,200 g at 50 mg.
100 mg modules
12201S: 12,200 g. 8201S: 8,200 g. 5201S: 5,200 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. The MCE has a touchscreen for routine weighing with the factory-installed basic applications and no licensable packages.
Draft shields and pans
Precision modules can be fitted with a manual glass draft shield for precision balances, a flat stainless steel weighing pan draft shield that is removable and has no glass parts, or a flat stainless steel pan without a draft shield. Weighing pans are 140 × 140 mm or 206 × 206 mm depending on the module.
Built for fast, traceable results
Typical stabilization time of 0.8 to 1 second and typical measurement time of 1 to 2 seconds.
Automatic internal adjustment (isoCAL) and automated motorized levelling.
Technical controls for 21 CFR Part 11 compliance, an integrated audit trail and user management on the balance.
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, display and draft shield and share the exact figures from the datasheet.
