Description
Scout® SKX123 precision balance is a compact laboratory balance with a weighing range of 120 g and a readability of 0,001 g. It is intended for standard weighing tasks in research, teaching, and quality-control environments where milligram-level resolution on a 120 g capacity is required. The instrument is supplied with a mains adapter and without batteries, ready for bench-top operation from manufacturer Ohaus. Its unit weight of 1,500 kg keeps the balance stable yet manageable on crowded laboratory benches. Categories place the Scout® SKX123 among standard balances used for routine measuring work in labware and measuring-instrument setups. The combination of 120 g capacity and 0,001 g readability suits preparation of small samples, reagents, and reference portions that demand fine resolution within a modest maximum load. One piece constitutes the pack, simplifying procurement for single-workstation installations. Laboratories specifying an Ohaus Scout® SKX model for everyday precision weighing will recognise this configuration as a practical choice for general analytical support without extended capacity claims beyond the stated range.
This article is part of Precision balances, in Balances & scales. See also Analytical balances.

Questions about Scout® SKX123 precision balance, weighing range 120 g, readability 0,001g
What is this article?
Scout® SKX123 precision balance, weighing range 120 g, readability 0,001g is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Ohaus 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.
