Description
BTD-423 is a precision balance offering a weighing range of 420 g with a fine readability of 0,001 g for laboratory work that demands higher resolution at moderate capacity. Built around the UNIBLOC system, it features a circular weighing pan of 110 mm diameter, suited to smaller sample vessels and precise portioning. External calibration allows the user to maintain accuracy with laboratory reference weights, and a measuring time of 2 seconds supports efficient series of weighings. The instrument is appropriate for fine weighing, formulation checks and analytical sample preparation where milligram-level readability is needed within a 420 g maximum load. Supplied as one piece from manufacturer Phoenix Instrument, the BTD-423 sits naturally in the precision and fine-balance category used across research, quality control and teaching laboratories. Capacity, pan size and readability are clearly defined so the balance can be selected to match existing SOPs and weighing protocols without unnecessary overspecification.
This article is part of Precision balances, in Balances & scales. See also Analytical balances.

Questions about Toploading balance, Capacity 420gr, Accuracy 1mg, external Calibration
What is this article?
Toploading balance, Capacity 420gr, Accuracy 1mg, external Calibration is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Phoenix Instrument 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.
