Description
Precision balance FZ-500i is a fine-resolution laboratory balance with a maximum capacity of 0,52 kg and a readability of 0,001 g across a single full-resolution range. Its durable all-metal housing incorporates robust overload protection and a shock-absorber function for long service life under daily laboratory use. Compressor-controlled internal calibration can be started at the touch of a button, and the compact SHS sensor reaches stability in about one second. A brilliant VFD display ensures clear readout, while built-in applications cover percent weighing, counting, animal weighing, underfloor weighing, density determination and SCF statistical evaluation of weighing results. Auto Power ON/OFF, date and time, and a space-saving B5 footprint support efficient bench work. The balance includes a draft shield with manual opening and a 130 mm weighing pan. Standard RS-232C is provided; optional accessories include USB (no driver installation), LAN/Ethernet with WinCT-Plus software, rechargeable NiMH battery, transport case, carat pan, animal container and a tall draft shield. Supplied from manufacturer A&D Instruments with a four-year guarantee, the instrument is not legal-for-trade and has a net weight of 3 kg.

Questions about Precision Balance, 520g x 0,001g
What is this article?
Precision Balance, 520g x 0,001g is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes A&D 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.
