Description
School balance KERN EMS 12K1 is a low-cost laboratory balance with a large weighing plate, developed especially for school and teaching use in biology, chemistry, physics and similar subjects. It offers a maximum load of 12 kg with a resolution of 0,001 kg as a full-range single-interval instrument for everyday educational weighing. The generous shock-resistant plastic pan measures 175 mm wide by 190 mm deep, while the particularly flat construction helps the balance sit stably on the bench. An ergonomically optimised keypad with large keys and a high-contrast LCD display supports simple, clear operation during practical classes. Rubber feet provide secure and non-slip placement on work surfaces. The integrated CAL adjustment programme allows accuracy setting; external test weights are available at extra cost. Net weight is 1,2 kg. This school and laboratory balance from manufacturer Kern is supplied as 1 pc and suits routine teaching applications that need a robust pan, readable display and straightforward controls.
This article is part of Precision balances, in Balances & scales. See also Analytical balances.

Questions about School Balance KERN EMS 12K1
What is this article?
School Balance KERN EMS 12K1 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes KERN 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.
