Description
Pocket balance KERN TGC 500-1S05 is a precision portable scale supplied as a pack of five units, each providing a maximum load of 0,5 kg and a resolution of 0,0001 kg. The high-resolution design delivers a particularly fast response and settling time, supporting efficient weighing workflows in the laboratory or on the move. A large stainless-steel weighing plate and practical tare pan facilitate sample handling, while the notably flat construction keeps the instrument compact. An impact-resistant plastic cover protects against pressure and dust and can double as a weighing vessel. The stainless-steel plate is easy and hygienic to clean. Each balance is ready to use with two CR2032 batteries included, offering an operating time of up to 8,75 h and an AUTO-OFF function after 4 min to save power. This multi-pack from manufacturer Kern is practical for laboratories, training environments or field kits that need several identical high-resolution pocket balances with consistent performance and straightforward maintenance.
This article is part of Precision balances, in Balances & scales. See also Analytical balances.

Questions about Pocket Balance KERN TGC 500-1S05
What is this article?
Pocket Balance KERN TGC 500-1S05 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.
