Description
School balance KERN EMB 500-1 is an entry-level laboratory balance designed for precise small-scale weighing in schools and routine laboratory practice. With a maximum load of 0,5 kg and a readability of 0,0001 kg in a full-resolution single-range configuration, it supports accurate measurements across its entire capacity. The 150 mm diameter weighing pan accommodates typical sample vessels, and the particularly flat housing ensures a stable footprint on the bench. Comfortable two-button operation plus a convenient tare function simplify recipe preparation and stepwise weighing. Batteries are included for immediate readiness, and a standard underfloor weighing hook enables suspended and density-related applications. From manufacturer Kern, the balance is also suited to teaching use with the optional density determination auxiliary set KERN YDB-04. Compact build, clear controls, and dependable resolution make this model a practical choice for classrooms, training laboratories, and basic analytical workflows that demand reliable precision without complex operation.

Questions about School Balance KERN EMB 500-1
What is this article?
School Balance KERN EMB 500-1 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.
