The Mettler Toledo® JET703C/A Carat Balance is an ultra-precise, legal-for-trade weighing instrument engineered specifically for diamond merchants, gemstone retailers, and jewelry laboratories. This high-performance balance delivers dual-range accuracy to satisfy rigorous weights and measures standards, offering a fine-resolution analytical capability of 140 grams with a readability of 0.1 milligrams (0.0001 g) alongside its standard legal-for-trade commercial configuration of 140 grams by 1 milligram (0.001 g). Its solid metal construction, robust die-cast aluminum casing, and integrated glass draft shield work together to protect delicate measurements from air currents, floor vibrations, and accidental workspace bumps.
Operational efficiency is driven by a vibrant, 4.5-inch color TFT touchscreen display that features an intuitive user interface with large icons for mistake-free reading under bright showroom and laboratory lights. To ensure uninterrupted accuracy and trade law compliance, the balance utilizes Mettler Toledos Fully Automatic Calibration Technology (FACT) to perform autonomous internal adjustments whenever ambient room temperatures shift. The balance is also built to handle complex point-of-sale setups, utilizing a comprehensive connectivity block featuring RS232, a USB Host, and a USB Device port to manage peripheral receipt printers, barcode scanners, and secondary customer-facing displays at the same time.
