Analytical Balances
Highly precise laboratory balances for measuring mass, typically designed with an enclosed measuring pan to avoid the influence of dust and air currents; may include vibration resistance, data transfer, automation, and capacity range options.
Analytical balances are a category of scientific scales or laboratory balances used for exacting weighing applications of small amounts of material in the laboratory, in educational environments, in the wider industrial workplace, or any environment requiring fast and accurate weighing performance. A wide range of models are available with defined weighing ranges, readabilities, accuracies, and repeatability.
Depending on the model, analytical balances are typically designed with weighing capacities from 1 mg up to 200 g, with readabilities between 0.1 mg to 0.01 mg or better. Micro-analytical balances are used for weighing much smaller amounts of material, from 0.1 mg upwards.
Analytical balances are often used in combination with sample containers such as weighing papers, dedicated spatulas for sample handling and transfer, and calibration weight sets.
Analytical Balance Features
• Integral data and method storage, with USB and RS232 connectivity for communication and data download
• Clear backlit displays and simple touchscreen user interfaces for uncomplicated operation
• Draught-shields to protect the measuring pan from air currents, with sliding tops and doors
• Level adjustment indicators and overload/underload indicators
• Selectable weighing modes and units of measurement
• Internal or external calibration and auto-tare functionality
How Are Analytical Balances Used?
• Routine weighing of chemicals or other samples
• Dynamic weighing of unstable specimens such as liquids, small animals, or insects
• Counting of parts, tablets, or other small items and components
• Percentage weighing for rapid, more efficient formulations, especially useful in chemical and pharmaceutical applications
• Density determinations
Chemglass Life Sciences Compact Balance, 120 Grams, 115V
Accuris Compact balances have been designed to meet the basic needs of academic and research labs requiring weight determinations to increments of 0.01g to 0.1g. Their reliable and precise weighing technology utilizes gold-plated, ceramic capacitors to determine sample mass.
Thomas Scientific Accuris Compact Balance, 120g x 0.01g, 115V
Accuris Compact balances have been designed to meet the basic needs of academic and research labs requiring weight determinations to increments of 0.01g to 0.1 g. Their reliable and precise weighing technology utilizes gold-plated, ceramic capacitors to determine sample mass. The Compact line includes 6 models covering a wide range of maximum weight capacities. The lower capacity units (120g, 300g, and 500g) are readable to 0.01 g, and come with a draft shield ring to prevent air currents from affecting measurements. These models feature a 4.5 inch diameter, stainless steel weigh pan. The larger capacity models (1000g, 5000g, and 10,000g) do not include the draft shield ring, come with larger weighing pans of 6.3 to 7 inch diameter, and are readable to 0.1g. All balances in the Accuris Compact line offer large, brightly lit LCD panels, and are easy to operate using the intuitive and splash resistant control panel. Different modes allow weight to be displayed in various units: grams, ou
Thomas Scientific Accuris Mini Balance, 500g x 0.1g
Accuris Mini Balances are extraordinarily compact, easy to use, and convenient for a variety of laboratory weighing applications. With a footprint of only 2.6 x 3.9 inches, these Mini Balances offer exceptional accuracy and linearity through their full weighing ranges. Available with either a 100g or 500g capacity, these digital balances feature an easy to read, backlit, liquid crystal display. Buttons for ON/OFF, MODE and TARE are located on the front for easy access. The software includes a calibration function for in-lab calibration with a 100g or 500g calibration weight. Calibration weights are available separately. Designed for portability, the Accuris Mini Balances are powered by 2 AAA batteries (included). After one minute sitting idle, the power automatically shuts off to conserve battery life. Ideal for lab or field use, each balance includes a snap on, protective cover with instructions conveniently printed on the underside. Easy-to-read, backlit, liquid crystal display Calib
