Description
PTB 4602e Polaris precision balance is a laboratory weighing instrument for accurate mass determination with a capacity of 4600 g and a readability of 0,01 g. The square weighing pan measures 185 x 185 mm, offering a stable surface for larger vessels, beakers and sample containers used in higher-capacity laboratory work. This model from manufacturer AE Adam is suited to research, quality-control, formulation and teaching settings that require centigram-level readability together with extended capacity. The pan geometry supports reproducible placement of samples and straightforward loading during preparation or check-weighing. Within the stated capacity, the balance covers routine measurement of solids, powders and prepared materials on the laboratory bench. Offered as a single unit, the PTB 4602e Polaris integrates into existing layouts where dependable higher-capacity precision weighing is needed. Its balance of capacity, 0,01 g readability and pan size makes it appropriate for formulation support, inventory checks and sample preparation workflows that demand stable day-to-day mass determination.

Questions about PTB 4602e Polaris Precision Balance — 4600 g — 0.01 g
What is this article?
PTB 4602e Polaris Precision Balance — 4600 g — 0.01 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.
