Description
The SAUTER 285-102 spring balance is a precise mechanical force-measuring instrument in a robust aluminium housing that displays results directly in grams and kilograms rather than newtons. Its aluminium scale tube is durable, long-lasting and easy to handle, while the dual scale supports both rapid overview and fine reading of the measured value. Play-free spring mounting with an integrated tare screw enables high-precision adjustment, and the fatigue-resistant stainless-steel spring maintains consistent performance. An abrasion-resistant, colour-anodised precision scale with high resolution allows the finest readings. Standard equipment includes a drag pointer and handle; the rotatable holding bracket keeps the scale optimally aligned with the line of sight. Optional pressure sets permit compressive-force measurement. With a maximum load of 10 kg and a resolution of 0,1 kg, this model from manufacturer Kern is suited to laboratory, industrial and quality-control weighing tasks that require reliable mechanical spring technology.
This article is part of Precision balances, in Balances & scales. See also Analytical balances.

Questions about Spring balances SAUTER 285-102
What is this article?
Spring balances SAUTER 285-102 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.
