Description
CA-2001 compact balance is a bench-scale laboratory weighing instrument with a weighing range of 2000 g and a readability of 0,1 g. It is fitted with an RS 232 interface for connection to external devices in routine laboratory data workflows. The round weighing pan has a diameter of 145 mm, giving a practical working surface for vessels and samples used in general laboratory practice. Calibration is performed externally, so the balance can be adjusted with suitable reference weights according to local procedures. Typical measuring time is 2–3 seconds, which supports efficient series of weighings in teaching, quality control, and research environments. Offered as a single-piece unit from manufacturer Phoenix Instrument, the CA-2001 suits precision and fine-weighing tasks where compact footprint and 0,1 g resolution are required. It is appropriate for everyday mass determination in the gram range on the laboratory bench, including preparation of reagents, sample aliquots, and process checks that do not demand analytical microgram performance.

Questions about Compact balance, Capacity 2000gr, Accuracy 0,1 gr
What is this article?
Compact balance, Capacity 2000gr, Accuracy 0,1 gr is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Phoenix Instrument for laboratory use. It sits in Precision balances, inside Balances & scales, in Lab instruments.
A precision balance reads more coarsely than an analytical balance, often 1 mg or 10 mg, and it takes a heavier pan load. It is the balance for preparing bulk reagents. Draft, level and a warm-up still move the last digit.
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.
