Description
CA-402 compact balance is a laboratory weighing instrument with a weighing range of 400 g and a readability of 0,01 g, suited to routine precision and fine weighing tasks. The circular weighing pan measures 120 mm in diameter and supports stable sample placement for powders, small components and general laboratory loads. An RS 232 interface enables straightforward data transfer to connected systems, while external calibration keeps the instrument aligned with laboratory practice. Typical measuring time is 2–3 seconds, supporting efficient workflows at the bench. Offered as a single unit from manufacturer Phoenix Instrument, this compact balance fits categories such as precision, fine and analytical laboratory scales where a clear capacity–readability balance and a compact footprint are required. The CA-402 is intended for everyday laboratory weighing where reliable readability, a practical pan size and serial connectivity matter without unnecessary complexity.
This article is part of Precision balances, in Balances & scales. See also Analytical balances.

Questions about Compact balance, Capacity 400gr, Accuracy 10mg
What is this article?
Compact balance, Capacity 400gr, Accuracy 10mg is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Phoenix Instrument 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.
