Description
Plastic weight case KERN 347-080-400 is a protective plastic housing intended for individual calibration weights in knob or compact form up to 200 g. This sturdy etui shields single weights from dust, impact and contamination during storage or transport in laboratory and industrial metrology environments. It supports organised handling of precision masses used for balance verification and quality-control routines. The compact case from manufacturer Kern has a nominal weight of 0,02 kg and a net weight of 0,05 kg, with packaging volume 0,000053816 m³, height 0,056 m, width 0,031 m and depth 0,031 m. Suitable for button-type and compact weights, it helps preserve surface integrity and mass stability of reference standards. The design facilitates space-efficient bench organisation while reducing the risk of mechanical damage. Ideal for analytical chemistry, pharmaceutical testing and calibration laboratories that require reliable protection of OIML-compatible weights. This practical accessory contributes to consistent weighing workflows by keeping individual masses clean and ready for use.

Questions about Plastic Weight Box KERN 347-080-400
What is this article?
Plastic Weight Box KERN 347-080-400 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Kern for laboratory use. It sits in Calibration & test weights, inside Balances & scales, in Lab instruments.
A test weight is a mass of a stated class, used to check a balance. The class sets the tolerance. A weight that is dirty, or that has been handled with bare fingers, is no longer that class. The certificate ties the weight to a 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.
Which category should I open next?
