Description
Compact laboratory balance KERN PCD 10K-3 is a high-resolution precision balance with a detachable evaluation device that offers maximum flexibility in laboratory setups. The separate weighing platform makes the instrument ideal for operations inside a glove box or beneath laboratory fume hoods, and is especially practical when handling toxic, volatile or contaminated substances. PRE-TARE supports manual pre-deduction of a known container weight, which is useful during fill quantity checks and repetitive dosing tasks. Freely programmable weighing units permit direct display in application-specific formats such as thread length in g/m or paper weight in g/m². A spirit level together with adjustable feet is supplied as standard for exact levelling, helping achieve accurate weighing results. The weighing pan measures 160 mm in width by 160 mm in depth. A protective working cover is included in the delivery scope. From manufacturer Kern, this compact laboratory balance supports flexible precision weighing where installation constraints and contamination control are important in daily laboratory practice.
This article belongs on Precision balances, in Balances & scales. See also Analytical balances.

Questions about Compact Laboratory Balance KERN PCD, 10K-3
What is this article?
Compact Laboratory Balance KERN PCD, 10K-3 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes KERN for laboratory use. It sits in Precision balances, inside Balances & scales, in Instruments de précision.
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.
