Description
Pocket balance series P, 500 g is a compact portable scale intended for quick weighing tasks in the laboratory or on the move. The hinged cover protects the weighing mechanism against overload and impact during transport and storage. Essential functions include tare, electronic calibration, automatic display illumination and automatic shut-off to conserve power. The balance runs on two AAA batteries and measures only 127 × 79 × 18 mm, making it easy to carry in a pocket or case. Net weight is 0,169 kg. Designed as a practical everyday tool from manufacturer Labbox, the METRIA-type pocket balance offers straightforward operation without mains dependency. A two-year warranty supports reliable use for simple mass determinations wherever a full laboratory balance is unnecessary. Ideal for field checks, teaching setups and general laboratory convenience weighing within the 500 g range.
This article is part of Precision balances, in Balances & scales. See also Analytical balances.

Questions about Pocket balance, P series, 500 g
What is this article?
Pocket balance, P series, 500 g is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Labbox 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.
