Description
CB 501 compact balance is a space-saving laboratory scale with a maximum load of 0,5 kg and 0,1 g readability for precise small-sample weighing. External calibration allows quick verification against reference weights, supporting consistent day-to-day performance in teaching, quality control and routine preparation work. Overload protection helps guard the weighing mechanism against accidental excess load, while the included 6 VDC 200 mA adapter and optional two-AA-battery operation give freedom to work at the bench or away from mains outlets. With a gross weight of 0,54 kg and a compact form factor, the instrument fits easily beside other lab tools without dominating limited workspace. This model from manufacturer AE Adam is intended for general laboratory use and is not approved for legal-for-trade applications. Delivered as a single unit, the CB 501 offers reliable half-kilogram capacity at 0,1 g resolution for formulation checks, educational demonstrations and light industrial sample handling that benefit from simple external calibration and flexible power options.
This article is part of Precision balances, in Balances & scales. See also Analytical balances.

Questions about CB 501 Kompaktwaage 500g/0,1g externe Kalibrierung
What is this article?
CB 501 Kompaktwaage 500g/0,1g externe Kalibrierung is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes AE Adam 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.
