Description
Aluminium-protected case KERN 317-030-600 is a purpose-built protective housing for individual calibration weights of the knob or compact type, specifically sized for 5 g pieces. The aluminium outer shell shields the precision weight from mechanical impact, dust and handling damage during storage and transport between calibration stations or laboratory benches. With a net weight of 0,20 kg and compact outer dimensions, the case remains easy to store yet provides a rigid barrier that helps preserve the surface finish and metrological integrity of the enclosed weight. Offered as a single unit from manufacturer Kern, this accessory integrates seamlessly into weighing and metrology workflows where OIML-class weights must be kept clean and undamaged. Laboratories performing routine balance checks, quality assurance or accredited calibration benefit from the added protection without adding bulk. The aluminium-protected design supports long-term organisation of small single weights while minimising the risk of scratches or contamination that could affect measurement accuracy.

Questions about Aluminium Protective Box KERN, 317-030-600
What is this article?
Aluminium Protective Box KERN, 317-030-600 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes KERN for laboratory use. It sits in Balance accessories, calibration & certificates, inside Balances & scales, in Instruments de laboratoire.
These are the draft shields, the pans, the ionisers, the printers and the calibration certificates that belong to a balance. A certificate states the errors found at stated loads. It does not make a different balance correct.
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.
