Description
Anti-vibration plate KERN YPS-04 is a compact granite platform designed to damp shocks and vibrations that would otherwise impair results from high-precision precision and analytical balances. The polished granite plate rests on absorbing rubber elements and is equally suited to vibration-free placement of microscopes. Overall dimensions are 400×450×60 mm, making the unit advantageous where bench space is limited, while the net weight of approximately 30 kg contributes to a stable working base. Operators can work ergonomically standing or seated. All surfaces are hygienic and easy to clean. The plate matches Kern analytical balances, precision balances and microscopes with corresponding dimensions and is offered as a single piece from manufacturer Kern. Gross weight is 38 kg; origin is Germany. Ready for dispatch on a pallet, the anti-vibration plate supports reliable, low-vibration setups in analytical and microscopy laboratories without requiring a full weighing table footprint.

Questions about Antivibration plate KERN YPS-04
What is this article?
Antivibration plate KERN YPS-04 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes KERN for laboratory use. It sits in Balance accessories, calibration & certificates, inside Balances & scales, in Lab instruments.
These are the draft shields, the pans, the ionisers, the printers and the calibration certificates that belong to a balance. A certificate states the errors found at stated loads. It does not make a different balance correct.
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.
