Description
Aluminium-protected case KERN 317-050-600 provides reinforced housing for individual calibration weights of knob or compact design with a nominal mass of 20 g. The aluminium outer shell adds mechanical strength and impact resistance while the internal cavity is shaped to hold a single weight securely, protecting polished surfaces from scratches, dust and environmental influences. With a gross and net mass of 0,20 kg the case remains portable yet offers a higher level of protection than standard plastic alternatives, making it suitable for frequent transport between laboratories or field calibration sites. Packaging volume is kept modest so the unit stores efficiently in drawers or carrying kits. This aluminium-protected case from manufacturer Kern supports metrology, quality assurance and analytical laboratories that rely on precise single weights and need durable, reusable protection. The robust construction ensures the weight stays centred and undamaged, contributing to consistent weighing performance and extended service life of the reference mass.

Questions about Aluminium Protective Box KERN, 317-050-600
What is this article?
Aluminium Protective Box KERN, 317-050-600 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes KERN for laboratory use. It sits in Balance accessories, calibration & certificates, inside Balances & scales, in Lab instruments.
These are the draft shields, the pans, the ionisers, the printers and the calibration certificates that belong to a balance. A certificate states the errors found at stated loads. It does not make a different balance correct.
A balance compares a mass with a standard. An analytical balance reads to 0.1 mg or finer and needs a draft shield and a stable bench. A precision balance is coarser and faster. A platform scale takes a heavier load. The reading is only as good as the calibration chain back to the kilogram, which is why test weights and a certificate exist. A moisture analyser is a balance with a heater: it records the loss of mass as water leaves. The unit of mass is kept by the BIPM, compared across Europe by EURAMET, and accredited by BELAC. NIST publishes the same measurement foundations.
