Description
Mechanical height measuring rod KERN MBC-A01 is a compact accessory designed for attachment to a compatible scale, enabling combined length and weight assessment in paediatric and clinical workflows. The measuring range extends from 10 cm to 80 cm with a scale division of 1 mm, supporting fine length determination for infants and small children. Its mechanical construction provides straightforward operation without electronic components, making it a practical add-on for routine diagnostic weighing stations. Mounted on the scale, the rod integrates height measurement into the same workstation used for infant weighing, helping streamline examinations. Net weight is 0,80 kg and gross weight 1,4 kg according to the supplied data. Offered as 1 pc from manufacturer Kern, this height rod complements baby scales in the MBC family and other suitable platforms where a dedicated mechanical stadiometer attachment is required. It is intended for professional laboratory and medical environments that need reliable length measurement alongside weighing.
This article is part of Bench, platform & industrial scales, in Balances & scales.

Questions about Mechanical height rod KERN MBC-A01
What is this article?
Mechanical height rod KERN MBC-A01 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes KERN for laboratory use. It sits in Bench, platform & industrial scales, inside Balances & scales, in Lab instruments.
A bench, platform or industrial scale takes kilograms to tonnes, with a platform instead of a small pan. Resolution is coarser. The load cell and the platform size are the specification. It is the scale for a drum or a packed goods check, not for a milligram of standard.
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.
