Description
Mechanical scale HJ2001 is a dual-pan Harvard Junior balance intended for comparison weighing in educational and training environments. It offers a maximum load of 2 kg with a resolution of 0,0005 kg on a single full-resolution weighing range, supporting clear mass-comparison exercises without electronic display devices. The 150 mm diameter pans suit typical classroom samples, and each unit includes an eight-piece weight set plus high pans that nest inside the standard pans. An Easy-Grip carrying handle allows teachers and students to move the instrument safely through the classroom, while stackable construction and a latching feature protect the mechanism and reduce storage footprint. Overall dimensions are 140 mm width, 160 mm height and 240 mm depth, with a net weight of 2,4 kg. This mechanical scale from manufacturer Ohaus combines durable construction with straightforward operation, making it well suited to introductory laboratory work, science teaching and comparative weighing demonstrations where reliable mechanical performance is required.

Questions about Mechanical Scale, HJ2001
What is this article?
Mechanical Scale, HJ2001 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Ohaus 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.
