Laboratory analytical balance
Laboratory scales - precision scales that are used for static mass measurement in laboratories of any enterprises and organizations.
High-precision laboratory scales are also called analytical. They are used to determine the mass of solid, bulk and liquid substances with an accuracy of 0.1 mg. Some analytical scales have a special (I) accuracy class.
An important characteristic when choosing laboratory scales is the maximum capacity (maximum weighing limit), the maximum weighing limit for analytical scales is in the range from 50 g to 1000 g.
The platform of laboratory scales is most often made of stainless steel and covered with a transparent hood (showcase), which serves as protection from dust and the influence of air flows on the accuracy of measurements.
Most analytical scales have additional functions that distinguish them from all other scales.
- Selecting a unit of mass measurement (some models have up to 24 units of mass).
- Tare function (zeroing the tare mass over the entire range weighing).
- Dynamic weighing of non-static objects.
- Percentage weighing (measurements in percentage ratio of components).
- Prescription weighing (weighing of multi-component mixture).
- Hydrostatic weighing (determination of density of substances).
- Counting the number of units.
- Filling control.
- Summation of results.
Analytical laboratory scales are used in research laboratories, research institutes, medical institutions, regulatory organizations and in various industries, including chemical, pharmaceutical and food.
