A&D FZ-200iWP food lab balance applications benefit from 220 g capacity, 0.001 g readability, internal calibration and an IP65 enclosure that is easier to place in cleanup-intensive environments than an ordinary open-top precision balance. The rating helps with dust and water-jet exposure but does not make the instrument immersion-proof or universally chemical resistant.
Food and formulation work
The 220 g range is useful for colors, flavors, stabilizers, spices, small development batches and ingredient QC. Keep the outside of sample vessels dry before weighing and allow hot or chilled containers to approach room conditions. Otherwise evaporation, condensation and convection can create errors larger than the final displayed digits.
Parts and production QC
Comparator and statistical modes can support repeated component checks, while ACAI counting can estimate uniform parts. The protected enclosure is valuable around dusty powders or frequent cleanup, but the measurement still requires a rigid stable bench. After cleaning, dry the station and verify with a known mass before resuming critical production measurements.
Connectivity versus IP65
Base RS-232C provides data output. If optional FXi-02 USB, FXi-08 Ethernet or FXi-09 battery hardware is installed, A&D states the configured balance no longer complies with IP65. A wet-lab buyer should decide whether sealed environmental performance or the optional internal interface feature is more important before ordering.
