ALJ.160-4AM analytical balance by KERN — 160 g / 0.0001 g readability

The ALJ.160-4AM is an analytical balance tailored for laboratory and quality-control tasks, offering sub-milligram resolution and automatic internal calibration for stable results.

• 160 g capacity with 0.0001 g readability
• Internal automatic calibration
• Stainless steel weighing pan Ø 80 mm
• Graphic LCD with 15 mm digits

High-resolution measurement for reliable results

The instrument delivers 0.0001 g readability, combined with 0.0001 g repeatability and ±0.0003 g linearity, which ensures that single measurements and series remain consistent under normal laboratory conditions. The balance uses a force compensation weighing system, a proven principle that converts load into a compensating electromagnetic force; this reduces mechanical hysteresis and supports precise readings across the full range. Such accuracy is essential for micro-dosing, analytical sample preparation and standards verification, where measurement precision directly influences experimental validity.

Stable calibration and legal verification for quality assurance

Equipped with internal automatic calibration, the balance maintains traceable accuracy without frequent manual adjustments, supporting uninterrupted workflows in controlled environments. It is built to Class I verification standards with a verification value 0.001 g, suitable for many analytical and research applications where documented calibration status is required. The instrument also reports minimal piece weights for counting tasks — 1 mg for laboratory counting and 10 mg for standard counting — enabling reliable component counting and process-control checks.

Practical design that supports everyday laboratory use

The balance combines a robust stainless steel pan (Ø 80 mm) with a plastic housing to balance durability and chemical resistance. The Graphic LCD with 15 mm digits improves readability for routine operations and reduces interpretation errors in dimly lit workspaces. With a compact footprint and a net weight of 6.5 kg, it fits benchtop workflows without sacrificing stability. Power is supplied via a plug-in adapter for AUS, CH, EU, UK and US sockets, simplifying international deployment and reducing downtime during installation.

Suitable applications and trusted manufacturing

With a 160 g capacity, the balance is optimised for analytical weighing in laboratories, quality-control departments and educational facilities that require sub-milligram precision. Manufactured by KERN in Italy, the instrument supports tasks from analytical chemistry and pharma compounding to R&D sample preparation. The compact construction and automatic internal adjustment contribute to fewer recalibrations and a steadier throughput, enhancing process efficiency and lowering the risk of rework.
