Description
Scout® SKX422 precision balance is a laboratory balance with a weighing range of 420 g and a readability of 0,01 g. It addresses standard weighing needs in research, teaching, and quality-control settings where centigram resolution and a higher capacity than entry-level models are required. The unit is delivered with a mains adapter and without batteries for ready connection to laboratory power, and originates from manufacturer Ohaus. Its weight of 1,700 kg contributes to a stable footprint on the bench during repeated weighing cycles. Within labware and measuring-instrument categories, the Scout® SKX422 is grouped with standard balances for general laboratory use. The 420 g capacity together with 0,01 g readability supports preparation of larger sample portions, media components, and routine mass checks that still benefit from fine display resolution. The pack comprises 1 pc, simplifying ordering for individual workstations. Laboratories specifying an Ohaus Scout® SKX precision balance for versatile everyday weighing will recognise this 420 g configuration as a practical option aligned with the stated range and readability.
This article is part of Precision balances, in Balances & scales. See also Analytical balances.

Questions about Scout® SKX422 precision balance, weighing range 420 g, readability 0,01
What is this article?
Scout® SKX422 precision balance, weighing range 420 g, readability 0,01 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Ohaus 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.
