Description
CQT 2601 Core™ portable compact balance is a lightweight laboratory scale offering 2600 g capacity and 0,1 g readability on a 145 mm diameter stainless steel weighing pan. It supports nine weighing units and full-range taring, with dual tare keys for fast container work on the bench. A backlit LCD keeps results easy to read, while ShockProtect™ three-point overload protection helps guard the mechanism during routine handling. The sealed, colour-coded keypad and modern flat housing keep operation simple in teaching, production and general laboratory settings. External calibration maintains performance; auto-sleep and automatic shut-off extend battery life when the included mains adapter is not used, and a battery indicator shows remaining power. Below-balance weighing is enabled via an integrated hook, supporting standard weighing, underfloor weighing and accumulation applications. A Kensington™-type security slot allows the instrument to be secured. Supplied as a single portable unit from manufacturer AE Adam, this Core™ model suits sample preparation, check weighing and everyday mass determination where compact size and straightforward controls are required.

Questions about CQT 2601 Core™ Portable Compact Balance, 2600g, 0,1g, Pan size 145mm Ø
What is this article?
CQT 2601 Core™ Portable Compact Balance, 2600g, 0,1g, Pan size 145mm Ø is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes AE Adam 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.
