Description
Precision balance FX-5000i is a robust single-range laboratory precision scale offering 5200 g capacity with 0,01 g readability. Its full-metal housing, overload protection and shock-absorber function are engineered for long service life in busy laboratories. The compact Super Hybrid Sensor (SHS) provides stabilisation in approximately one second, and the brilliant VFD display remains easy to read under typical lab lighting. External calibration is available at the push of a button. Built-in applications include percentage weighing, counting, animal weighing, underhook weighing, density determination and the SCF statistics programme for complete result statistics. Standard RS-232C connectivity is included; optional driver-free USB and LAN/Ethernet with WinCT-Plus software support data transfer and network use. The B5 footprint and 150 mm weighing pan minimise bench space while handling larger samples. Auto power ON/OFF together with date and time functions streamline daily operation. Supplied as one piece from manufacturer A&D Instruments, the balance carries a four-year warranty. Optional accessories include a rechargeable NiMH battery, transport case, carat pan, animal weighing container and tall draft shield for specialised workflows.

Questions about Precision Balance, 5200g x 0,01g
What is this article?
Precision Balance, 5200g x 0,01g 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.
