Description
Bench scale FCB 8K0.1 is a practical laboratory bench scale intended for routine weighing across teaching labs, production support and general analytical preparation. It provides an 8 kg weighing range with 0,1 g readability, suited to bulk sample aliquots, buffer and media preparation, and straightforward mass determination where fine analytical resolution is not required. Delivery includes a power supply unit and protective hood, enabling immediate setup and basic protection of the weighing pan during daily use. The balance comes from manufacturer KERN and is positioned among basic and training balances for laboratories that need reliable capacity and clear readability in a compact format. Supplied as 1 pc with an instrument weight of 4,500 kg, it sits stably on standard laboratory benches. Typical uses include educational practicals, goods-receipt checks, formulation support and general sample handling within measuring-instrument workflows. The protective hood helps limit contamination between weighing sessions, while the external power supply supports continuous operation. Select the FCB 8K0.1 when an 8 kg capacity and 0,1 g readability align with your laboratory weighing tasks.

Questions about Bench scale FCB 8K0.1, Weighing range 8 kg, readability 0.1 g, 1 unit(s)
What is this article?
Bench scale FCB 8K0.1, Weighing range 8 kg, readability 0.1 g, 1 unit(s) 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.
