Trusted Reliability, Helpful Classroom Features, and Smart Pricing Put The TBB 610S Triple Beam At The Head Of Its Class

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – Danbury, CT (January 8, 2008) – Adam Equipment, a world-class manufacturer of mass measurement equipment, has added a 610g-capacity model to its popular TBB Triple Beam mechanical balance line. The durable TBB 610S model was designed specifically for those educators who don’t weigh heavier samples yet still want quality mechanics and reliable readings from a brand they know and trust. The TBB 610S is the third model in the company’s popular TBB Triple Beam line.“Teachers shouldn’t have to choose between low prices and dependable quality when purchasing lab equipment,” said Alan Storey, Managing Director of Adam Equipment. “For the first time, educators can get a sturdy and accurate triple beam balance for well under $100 from a manufacturer whose warranty and service they have confidence in. The practical TBB 610S will demonstrate mass measurement concepts for students and also reliably perform everyday weighing functions for many years within the classroom.”

Adam’s new TBB 610S Triple Beam, like all models in the TBB line, offers an assortment of valuable classroom features not available with any other triple beam. First, in response to teachers’ overwhelming concerns about stolen triple beams, Adam built a security slot into the TBB’s housing so that educators could easily keep their balances safe from theft. The security slot is compatible with any universal Kensington™ lock and cable. (Cable and lock sold separately.)

Secondly, Adam also added a weigh-below hook, protractor, ruler, and conversion chart right onto the housing of all TBB Triple Beams, transforming these balances into a complete measurement tool for schools. Finally, the TBB line has a wider overall body than other triple beams, making it the sturdiest option for students. The company has secured a patent for the innovative design of its TBB Triple Beam.

The durable TBB 610S offers a 610g capacity with 0.1g readability and it is easy to keep clean with metal housing and a stainless steel pan. Quality center-point readings are ensured with magnetic dampening, positive poise positioning, well-defined notches, and three graduated-tier beams. A counterbalance knob provides speedy zeroing.

Unique tripod legs may be purchased separately to lift up the balance for optimal visibility during below balance activities such as density experiments. The legs are both more stable and more convenient to use than the rod and clamp kits that other manufacturers offer. A hard carry case with lock may also be purchased for optimal storage and transporting both within a school and in the field.

The TBB 610S has a suggested list price of $85. Accessory pricing: lock & cable for $28, tripod legs for $18, and hard carry case for $65. The TBB line is available from many science education dealers. It is backed by a three-year Adam Assurance Warranty with responsive and reliable service before, during, and after the sale.

Powerful Utility Captures Data Simultaneously From Up To Eight Adam Balances
Danbury, CT (December 10, 2007) – Adam Equipment, a world-class manufacturer of mass measurement equipment, has introduced AdamDU Data Collection Software, a new software utility that collects balance and scale data in real time for immediate analysis or for exporting to other applications. The software is easy to set up and can record data from up to eight Adam balances and scales simultaneously. AdamDU is capable of providing graphing and statistic analysis for the collected data and the utility can remotely manage many settings of Adam balances that are in another location.

“More and more people are incorporating weight data into their systems to take advantage of computer data processing” said Alan Storey, Director of Adam Equipment. “The Adam DU is an affordable way to implement an easy to use solution. The software is designed to work with most of our balances and scales, without needing complex programming skills. It even lets you analyze the data right from within the user interface.”

AdamDU Software monitors and collects data readings from up to eight Adam balances or scales at a time. Balances do not have to be the same model or from the same line. All captured readings include corresponding date and time records, and some of the balances can even send their serial number for exact referencing back to the balance that was used to record the data. For further efficiency and accuracy in reporting, up to six fields (such as batch number or part number) can be customized and entered on the computer when taking the readings, plus individual session settings and file names can be stored and retrieved. Users can control or adjust certain balance settings right from their computer, such as changing the weighing unit or even instructing the balance to perform an internal calibration; control options vary with each balance line.

AdamDU provides maximum flexibility for data management. Captured readings can be exported into Microsoft^® Excel or Microsoft^® Word at the click of a button. However, if integration with systems is required, AdamDU constantly refreshes readings in text, CSV, HTML, and XML file formats for importing to other software applications. Adam DU also provides real time graph readings with key statistics in view for easy monitoring of Min, Max, Median, Mean, Variance, and Standard Deviation. With quick search functions and printing capability, AdamDU software accommodates many industrial and lab data management needs.

AdamDu Software is compatible with most Adam product lines: PGW Precision Balances, PW Analytical Balances, ACBplus Portable Balances, CBD Counting Scales, CBC Bench Counting Scales, CPWplus Weighing Scales, ADK Precision Balances, CBK Bench Scales, BFW Platform Scales, AZextra Retail Scales, and AE 202 Indicators. The software requires Windows^® 98SE, Windows^® 2000, Windows^® ME, Windows XP^® or Windows Vista^TM.

Fourteen-day, single-user trials of fully enabled AdamDU Software can be downloaded for evaluation at www.adamDU.com The program can be purchased directly from Adam online or from any authorized Adam dealer. List price for AdamDU is US $75.

Speed and Simplicity Are The Hallmarks Of These Industrial Check Weighing Scales

Adam Equipment, a world-class manufacturer of mass measurement equipment, has introduced its CBK Bench Scales, a new family of industrial scales for basic weighing, check weighing, and parts counting. CBK scales have higher capacities and extra standard features – at lower prices than the CBW line, which they have replaced.

“The CBK is unbeatable – it offers industrial users so much more yet we were able to cut the list price of all six models compared to its predecessor, the CBW,” said Alan Storey, Managing Director of Adam Equipment. “With the CBK’s increased capacities and all the features we have added to simplify and speed operation, there isn’t a better value out there for agricultural, warehouse, production, field, or other industrial applications that need a bench scale in this range.”

The versatile CBK performs basic weighing, check weighing, parts counting, and percent weighing – in a choice of five units (g, kg, lb, oz, Lb:oz). The scale features numerous advancements for easier, faster operation. First, the CBK’s LED check limit indicators simplify check weighing by correlating the specific light color to a certain reading range: under, over, acceptable, or in-sequence for a dynamic indication. The built-in memory can store high and low limits for up to ten samples, allowing the most commonly tested items to be checked even faster. To minimize overfill errors, a capacity tracker has been added to alert operators with audible and visual signals when the scale’s capacity is being exceeded. Plus, a now standard bi-directional RS-232 interface allows data to be transmitted to printers or PC’s. The final upgrades added to the new CBK line includes built-in time date/time for better traceability, and multi-language text output for more accurate data recording by operators regardless of their expertise in the English language. With all these features, no other bench scale comes close to the CBK for versatility.

The design of the CBK, inside and out, makes sense for the industrial environment. The numeric keypad allows users to enter numeric values for preset tare, check weigh limits, and piece weights while the color-coded keys quickly identify the most commonly used functions. The scale’s large backlit LCD display is easy to read even in poorly lit industrial locations. The machine’s overload protection, together with its sealed keypad/display and stainless steel pan, protect the CBK from the tough conditions found in the industrial environment. The internal rechargeable battery with low-battery indicator permits the CBK to be used anywhere from field applications to the warehouse where external power is not readily available. Whether plugged in or on batteries the auto power-off saves energy by shutting down. There are six models ranging from 8 lb/4000 g x 0.0002 lb/0.1 g to 100 lb/48000 g x 0.005 lb/2 g. With prices starting at $375, there is a CBK to fit almost any budget.

All Adam balances and scales are backed by Adam Assurance Warranties with responsive and reliable service before, during, and after the sale. The company offers optional accessories to complement CBK scales, including a carry case, an in-use wet cover, a factory-installed weigh-below hook for density, data collection software, and a printer.
