Description
Compact balance with comparator function, 5100 g × 1 g, Ideal is a portable laboratory scale built for fast checkweighing and clear go/no-go decisions. Capacity is 5100 g with 1 g readability, matching routine weighing of samples, reagents, and components in teaching and production labs. A clearly visible multicolour LED indicator supports quick and simple comparator readout, while the large LCD shows results with 13,5 mm digit height for comfortable viewing at the bench. Net weight is 0,47 kg and gross weight 1,2 kg, with compact packaging dimensions that suit limited workspace and easy storage. This model from manufacturer A&D Instruments is supplied as a single piece in the Ideal series and is intended for everyday compact weighing where comparator feedback and legible displays speed up repetitive tasks. It fits general laboratory and quality-control workflows that need straightforward mass determination without complex setup.
This article is part of Precision balances, in Balances & scales. See also Analytical balances.

Questions about Compact balance, 310g x 0,1g
What is this article?
Compact balance, 310g x 0,1g is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes A&D 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.
