CY-A Touch Screen Semi-Micro Balance
The Aczet CY-A Series touch screen semi-micro balances combine 0.01 mg or 0.1 mg readability with a 5.7 inch colour touch screen and touch-free infrared operation. Six models (CY 205A, CY 225A, CY 285A, CY 255A, CY 165A and CY 65A) cover 60 g to 250 g, some with dual range. Motorised internal calibration, an 80 mm grid pan, seven built-in databases, a 500,000-record ALIBI memory and GLP-ready time stamping suit pharmaceutical, chemical, food and research laboratories.
Overview
The Aczet CY-A Series is a range of semi-micro balances built around a 5.7 inch touch screen. A semi-micro balance reads to 0.01 mg (10 µg) and weighs up to a few hundred grams, which suits small samples, reference standards and formulation work in the laboratory. The CY-A range adds a touch interface, infrared hands-free operation and built-in databases.
Six models, 60 g to 250 g
CY 205A: 200 g, 0.01 mg.
CY 225A: 220 g, 0.1 mg.
CY 285A: dual range, 80 / 220 g, 0.01 / 0.1 mg.
CY 255A: dual range, 100 / 250 g, 0.01 / 0.1 mg.
CY 165A: dual range, 100 / 160 g, 0.01 / 0.1 mg.
CY 65A: 60 g, 0.01 mg.
All models share an 80 mm grid pan, a response time of 5 to 8 seconds and motorised internal calibration.
Touch screen and hands-free operation
The latest-generation capacitive display is designed for everyday ease of use, with a clear menu and a home screen that can be arranged with widgets. Built-in infrared sensors let you tare, send a result to a printer or step through a process by simply moving a hand across the sensor. This helps when you work with valuable or toxic samples and want to avoid touching the balance.
Databases and records
The information system is based on seven databases: users (up to 25), products (up to 5,000), weighments (up to 50,000), packaging types (up to 100), formulas (up to 100), clients (up to 100) and an ALIBI memory for up to 500,000 weighments. You can create reports on formulas (up to 200 reports) and on density determination (up to 500 reports). USB makes it quick to copy results, reports and databases to other balances, and a built-in real-time clock supports GLP and GMP documentation.
Aczet lists semi-micro balances for pharmaceutical, chemical, food, petroleum and biotechnology testing, and for research, NABL and academic laboratories.

Key features
- 5.7 inch touch screen A capacitive colour touch display with a customisable home screen, so the results and information you use most are one touch away.
- Touch-free infrared sensors Tare, print or move through a process with a wave of the hand, which helps with valuable or toxic samples.
- Six models, up to dual range CY 65A to CY 255A cover 60 g to 250 g with 0.01 mg or 0.1 mg readability, and CY 285A, CY 255A and CY 165A offer two ranges.
- Motorised internal calibration Fully automatic calibration with built-in weights keeps the balance accurate without handling external weights.
- Seven databases and ALIBI memory Store users, products, weighments, packaging, formulas and clients, with up to 500,000 weighments kept in the ALIBI memory.
Key advantages
- Several users, one balance Up to 25 users and 5,000 products can be stored, so a shared lab balance keeps each person's work organised.
- Traceable results The built-in clock and ALIBI memory record weighments with time stamps, which supports GLP and GMP documentation.
- Faster formulation and density work Application modes include formulation and automatic density determination, with reports for up to 200 formulas and 500 density runs.
- Low sensitivity drift Sensitivity drift is stated as ±1 ppm per °C, so readings stay steady within the 18 to 30 °C operating range.
- Easy data movement USB transfer copies results, reports and databases to other balances, and RS 232 is shown among the interfaces.
