Ohaus Accessories – Genuine Add-Ons for Ohaus Balances & Scales
Our Ohaus accessories range covers the genuine components and peripherals needed to maintain, extend, and get the most from your Ohaus weighing equipment. Designed and tested specifically for compatibility with Ohaus balances and scales, genuine accessories ensure your instruments continue to perform to their rated specification, maintain their warranty, and meet the compliance requirements of GMP, GLP, and ISO quality management systems.
Using the correct accessories is as important as the initial instrument purchase. A balance without a suitable draft shield will produce unstable readings at high resolution. A scale without the correct calibration weight cannot be properly verified. A printer without the right interface cable cannot capture weight records for traceability. Our Ohaus accessories range is designed to close these gaps — providing everything needed to keep your weighing systems accurate, connected, and compliant over the long term. Ohaus has over 100 years of weighing instrument expertise, and their accessories are engineered to the same quality standards as their instruments.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know which accessory is compatible with my Ohaus balance or scale?
Compatibility depends on your specific Ohaus model and its interface type (RS-232, USB, Ethernet, etc.). Check your instrument’s manual or data sheet for the interface specification, then match it to the accessory listing. Contact our team with your model number and we’ll confirm the correct accessory — we stock accessories for the full Ohaus range including the Pioneer, Explorer, Adventurer, Ranger, and Defender series.
Do Ohaus calibration weights come with certificates?
Yes. Ohaus calibration weights are available with OIML certification and UKAS-traceable calibration certificates on request. For regulated environments (pharmaceutical, GMP, ISO 17025), UKAS-accredited certificates provide the highest level of traceability. Contact us when ordering to specify your certificate requirements.
Can I use third-party accessories with my Ohaus balance?
In many cases, standard accessories such as RS-232 cables and weighing pans from other suppliers will work. However, for draft shields, density determination kits, and some printer connections, Ohaus-specific accessories are recommended to ensure correct fit and full functionality. Using non-genuine accessories may also affect your warranty — contact us for advice on compatible options.
Are accessories available for all Ohaus product lines?
We stock accessories compatible with the main Ohaus product lines including analytical balances, precision balances, moisture analysers, counting scales, platform scales, and jewellery balances.
