Description
Portable precision balance METRIA Series MPB, 1000 g × 0,01 g, delivers accurate weighing for laboratory benches and mobile field work. The instrument supports piece counting, percentage calculation, unit conversion and density determination, covering everyday tasks in sample preparation, formulation checks and routine quality control. Designed for field use, it operates from four AA batteries or from mains power at 110–230 V / 50–60 Hz, so measurements continue whether a fixed outlet is available or not. Integrated keys on the control panel help protect the electronics against liquid ingress during handling. A stainless steel weighing plate measuring 170 × 170 mm provides a durable, easy-to-clean surface for samples and containers, while the RS232 interface enables connection to printers or computers for data transfer. Calibration is performed externally to keep results aligned with laboratory practice. With a net weight of 1,620 kg, the balance remains practical to move between workstations. This METRIA model from manufacturer Labbox is supplied as one piece and carries a two-year warranty, suiting precision weighing in research, teaching and industrial laboratories.
This article is part of Precision balances, in Balances & scales. See also Analytical balances.

Questions about Portable precision balance, METRIA, series MPB, 1000 g x 0,01 g, EU plug
What is this article?
Portable precision balance, METRIA, series MPB, 1000 g x 0,01 g, EU plug is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Labbox 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.
