Balances
New balance range provides ‘more clarity in weighing than ever’ for labs
Jan 09 2026
Adam Equipment, a global leader in the manufacturing of professional scales and balances, is redefining clarity with the launch of its new Polaris lab balances.
Made up of semi-micro, analytical, precision and top loading models, Polaris has been developed to make weighing easier and results clearer. Features include a brightly-lit weighing chamber, so samples are easier to see, an expansive digital weight display – Adam’s largest-ever on a lab balance – and, for the 5 decimal-place model, unique technology to divert warm air away from the weighing pan.
Additionally, there are more connectivity options than on previous Adam balances, with RJ45 Ethernet, Bluetooth®, USB and RS-232 for connecting to printers, PCs and LIMS software.
The Polaris user interface has been developed by Adam’s in-house design and manufacturing team to be easier to use, with more intuitive operation, a more clearly laid-out display, and – when in checkweighing mode – colour-changing backlight.
Sam Jones, Adam’s Technical Director, said:
“Polaris puts the emphasis on clarity, with clearer operation, clearer results and a better experience for users. We’ve thought differently about how we make our balances more accurate, which has resulted in ADT – our new Air Diversion Technology, which diverts more than 90% of warm air from the weighing pan and helps speed-up stabilisation time.
“Warm air can affect readings from high-accuracy balances, and ADT on our 5-place Polaris means weighing results you’ll be confident in.”
Colin Maher, Adam’s CEO, added:
“Polaris marks the start of an exciting year for Adam. With this range, we’re providing more clarity in weighing than ever, and we’re starting as we mean to go on. There will be more from Adam this year that will take us to the next level – watch this space!”
All Polaris models are covered by Adam’s 5-year warranty, and are available to order now.
