Description
Compact laboratory balance KERN PFB 6000-1 is a fast-displaying precision balance for laboratory and general weighing duties, with a maximum load of 6 kg and a readability of 0,0001 kg on a full-resolution single range. The weighing pan measures 155 mm in width and 145 mm in depth, giving a practical surface for larger vessels and samples. Compact overall dimensions are advantageous where bench space is limited. A rising bar-graph capacity indicator shows how much of the weighing range remains available, while a spirit level and adjustable foot screws are included as standard for exact levelling and accurate results. The unified, comfortable KERN operating concept places each main function on its own dedicated key. Checkweighing with optical and acoustic signals supports portioning, dosing or sorting within defined tolerance limits. Delivered as one piece from manufacturer Kern, this robust compact balance suits routine laboratory weighing, sample preparation and process checks that need clear feedback and a higher capacity range.
This article is part of Precision balances, in Balances & scales. See also Analytical balances.

Questions about Compact Laboratory Balance KERN PFB, 6000-1
What is this article?
Compact Laboratory Balance KERN PFB, 6000-1 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.
