Analytical Balances
An analytical balance is a sensitive piece of lab equipment that enables precise measurement of mass due to its high readability and draught proof weighing chamber. With an analytical balance it's possible to measure to a precision of 0.0001g, making it the ideal choice for pharmaceutical, industrial, chemical, and food and beverage laboratories.
They usually have lower capacity limits compared to other types of balances, often ranging from 100 g to 200 g.
Some may have internal calibration features while others requires external calibration.
For both weighing and calibration, analytical balances should be placed on an anti-vibration table as they can sense the smallest variation in mass.
Features like removable draft shields and spill-resistant designs can simplify upkeep and prolong the balance's lifespan.
