Description
PPB 223i Polaris precision balance is a laboratory weighing instrument offering a capacity of 220 g with a readability of 0.001 g. A round weighing pan of 100 mm diameter provides space for typical small vessels, weighing papers and sample boats used across chemical and life-science benches. The balance addresses precision weighing tasks in which fine readability supports formulation, aliquot preparation and quantitative measurements within the given load range. As part of the Polaris series it is supplied as one piece for straightforward bench-top deployment in research, industrial QC and educational laboratories. Manufacturer AE Adam specifies a compact combination of 220 g capacity, 0.001 g readability and a 100 mm pan suited to lower-mass laboratory workloads. Users adopt the PPB 223i when daily procedures remain inside this capacity window and a modest pan diameter matches their glassware and consumables. The instrument is appropriate for standard weighing of solids and other materials that do not exceed the maximum load. Clear capacity, readability and pan-size figures ease comparison with other precision balances and help align the device with routine analytical needs.

Questions about PPB 223i Polaris precision balance — 220 g — 0.001 g
What is this article?
PPB 223i Polaris precision balance — 220 g — 0.001 g 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.
