Description
Portable balance Series CB, 500 g capacity with 0,1 g readability, provides precise routine weighing for laboratory and general applications. The instrument combines a robust ABS housing with overload protection and a stainless steel weighing pan for reliable daily use. Adjustable feet and a built-in spirit level help achieve accurate levelling on different surfaces. Three weight units—gram, ounce and pound—plus external calibration and automatic shut-off support flexible workflows and power-conscious operation. Power is supplied by two AA batteries or an optional adapter that is not included. External dimensions measure 160 x 205 x 45 mm, with a net weight of 0,385 kg. Delivered with a handbook from manufacturer Labbox, this compact Series CB model is well suited to portable bench and field weighing. An optional manufacturer calibration certificate (BAAC-CAL-001) may be ordered together with the balance. A two-year warranty underlines its suitability for professional laboratory environments requiring 0,1 g readability at 500 g capacity.

Questions about Portable scale CB series, 500 g (read. 0.1 g)
What is this article?
Portable scale CB series, 500 g (read. 0.1 g) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Labbox 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.
