Description
Spring balance SAUTER 287-108 is a mechanical instrument for weight and force measurement that employs a quality spring engineered for long service life. Its transparent plastic housing delivers an optimised price-performance ratio and makes the unit especially suitable for schools and educational institutions. A dual scale supports both rapid overview readings and precise capture of measurement results. High precision is ensured by play-free spring mounting together with an integrated tare screw that permits highly accurate adjustment. The fatigue-resistant stainless-steel spring and the abrasion-free coloured precision scale with high resolution provide clear, durable indication. Thanks to the rotatable inner tube the scale remains optimally readable at all times. The standard suspension device supplied with the instrument can be exchanged conveniently for another type, allowing individual adaptation to the weighing goods. This compact model from manufacturer Kern weighs only 0,05 kg net and is well suited to laboratory teaching, demonstration and routine force or mass determinations where mechanical simplicity and reliability are required.
This article is part of Precision balances, in Balances & scales. See also Analytical balances.

Questions about SAUTER spring balance 287-108
What is this article?
SAUTER spring balance 287-108 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.
