400g Precision Laboratory Balance 0.1g Readability, Stainless Steel 130×130mm Weighing Pan, DMS System - KERN

Product information "400g Precision Laboratory Balance 0.1g Readability, Stainless Steel 130×130mm Weighing Pan, DMS System - KERN"

Benefit from a compact footprint combined with 0.1 g precision and an integrated draft shield for reliable routine weighing; order the instrument directly via Metav Werkzeuge or consult our specialists for application-specific advice.

KERN 440-43N Precision laboratory balance — 400 g / 0.1 g

The KERN 440-43N is a compact precision laboratory balance designed for routine weighing, percent determination and tight benchtop environments

  • Compact dimensions ideal for small benchtops
  • Percent determination for target-value weighing
  • Draft shield included for protected weighing
  • Readability 0.1 g with 400 g capacity

Accuracy and repeatability for reliable results

The balance delivers consistent results thanks to a strain gauge weighing system that translates load into stable readings. With a readability of 0.1 g, reproducibility 0.1 g and linearity ±0.2 g, the instrument supports repeatable measurements for routine laboratory tasks and quality checks. The device also provides information relevant to the USP minimum sample weight, which is a recognised criterion for deciding the smallest permissible sample for a given accuracy class; this helps laboratories follow pharmacopeial guidance when assessing small-mass samples and planning batch analyses.

Compact design keeps the workbench clear and protected

Engineered for space-constrained workflows, the unit’s compact dimensions (165 × 230 × 75 mm) and low weight make it simple to position on crowded benches. The stainless steel weighing pan (130×130 mm) is robust and easy to clean, while the included draft shield (work protection hood) reduces air disturbances for more reliable low-mass determinations. The low-profile format ensures precision without sacrificing usable bench space, making the balance suitable for analytical tasks in laboratories, teaching facilities and production control.

Flexible power and clear readout for uninterrupted operation

Power options match varied workshop environments: use the supplied mains adapter (adapters for CH, EURO, UK and US included) or the 9 V block battery for portable operation; battery runtime reaches approximately 20 h. The clear LCD with 15 mm digit height improves legibility for fast readings across shifts. The instrument operates within a standard laboratory climate (5 °C–35 °C, up to 80% humidity), ensuring stable performance in typical indoor conditions and enabling continuous measurement cycles without frequent interruptions.

Practical functions that streamline routine tasks

Built-in functions focus on productivity: percent determination allows weighing to a predefined 100 % reference and quickly displays deviation from target values, while piece counting supports small-part inventories with a laboratory minimum piece weight of 200 mg (and 2 g under normal counting mode). These functions reduce manual calculation steps and help standardise repetitive processes. The solid functional set combined with straightforward controls supports efficient workflows and lowers the risk of operator error during daily quality-control routines.
