Mettler Toledo recently announced the publication of a new white paper entitled “The Green Light for Weighing.” In it, readers obtain an easy-to-read overview of various regulatory perspectives on analytical balances while being introduced to StatusLight, a technology that supports both regulatory accuracy and day-to-day processing ease

Mettler Toledo’s StatusLight visually indicates a balance is ready for weighing. This clear indicator — and the underlying technology that supports it — is helping labs worldwide speed up production and prevent weighing errors. Operators need only glance at the touchscreen to see that all factors required for precise weighing are met.

This knowledge may be most important in the pharmaceutical industry, where even tiny balance shifts can cause companies to run afoul of regulators and endanger consumers. The same advanced features that secure reliable weighing results also support stringent quality control assurance demands with full traceability. Users face audit with greater confidence.

The white paper also helps take the mystery out of inevitable audits by describing various inspection approaches while providing insight into the importance of level control, balance pan positioning, and automated internal adjustment to weighing accuracy.
