Description
Mettler Toledo XPE26 Microbalance
The Mettler Toledo XPE26 Microbalance incorporates the latest weighing technology available. This balance has a capacity of 26 grams with a readability of 0.001 milligram (1 µg) to full capacity. The XPE26 has a large color touchscreen display that is detachable from the main unit.
Mettler Toledo XPE26 Microbalance features
- High resolution technology
- proFACT advanced internal adjustment with sensitivity testing
- Capacity: 22g
- Readability: 0.001mg
- 90-day warranty
The status indicator flashes green when the balance is ready to weigh, yellow warns of an a error and red indicates that the balance is not ready to weigh. Also standard with the XPE series, Mettler Toledo incorporates a new, embedded, static detect technology to warn the user when static conditions are out of tolerance.
The XPE series also features the SmartGrid weighing pan which minimizes the effects of air turbulence and allows spilled samples to fall to the dip tray below the pan so that they do not affect results. XPE micro-analytical balance also come standard with proFACT adjustment technology and can be fitted with Mettler’s (optional) static eleminator.

Testing
This Mettler Toledo XPE26 Microbalance is used and reconditioned. Our technicians test all equipment to confirm that it operates properly and to the manufacturer’s specifications.
We test balances to ensure repeatability, correct cornerload tolerances, linearity, and reduced span at or near full capacity. We also test all displays and controls as well as any other features that are included, such as auto-calibration and draft shield auto-retraction, to make sure the balances are fully operational.

With 1 µg readability and ~22 g capacity, it enables reliable measurement of extremely small samples while minimizing material loss.
What features make the XPE26 stand out from other microbalances?
The XPE26 incorporates advanced technologies to ensure consistent and error-free weighing:
- proFACT internal calibration for automatic accuracy assurance
- SmartGrid weighing pan to reduce air turbulence effects
- StaticDetect technology to identify electrostatic interference
- StatusLight indicator for instant weighing status feedback
- Detachable touchscreen terminal for flexible operation
These features help reduce user error and improve workflow efficiency in sensitive applications.
What are the key specifications of the XPE26 microbalance?
The XPE26 is part of Mettler Toledo’s Excellence series and offers:
- Capacity: ~22 g
- Readability: 0.001 mg (1 µg)
- Repeatability: ~0.7 µg
- Minimum weight (USP): ~1.4 mg
- Settling time: ~3.5 seconds
- Internal calibration: proFACT automatic adjustment
These specs make it ideal for regulated environments requiring traceability and compliance.
Is the XPE26 microbalance compliant with laboratory regulations?
Yes. The XPE26 is designed to support compliance with USP minimum weight requirements, GLP/GMP environments, and 21 CFR Part 11 (when used with LabX software).
Its built-in testing and calibration features help maintain audit-ready performance and data integrity.
What industries commonly use the XPE26 microbalance?
This microbalance is widely used in:
- Pharmaceutical and biotech labs
- Chemical and materials science research
- Environmental testing facilities
- Academic and government laboratories
Any application requiring microgram-level precision will benefit from this system.
How does the XPE26 compare to newer models like the XPR series?
While newer models (like the XPR series) include incremental software and automation upgrades, the XPE26 still delivers:
- Comparable 1 µg readability and precision
- Proven reliability in regulated labs
- Lower acquisition cost when purchased refurbished
For many labs, the XPE26 offers the best balance of performance and value.
Is the XPE26 right for my lab?
If your lab requires, microgram-level precision, regulatory compliance, reliable, repeatable measurements, and cost-effective equipment solutions, then a refurbished Mettler Toledo XPE26 Microbalance is an excellent choice.
