KERN EMB 1200-1 — School laboratory balance with 0.1 g readability
The KERN EMB 1200-1 is a compact school balance designed for classroom use, training and light industrial quality checks with a user-friendly two-button layout
- Simple 2-button operation
- Tare function for easy dosing
- Very flat design for small workspaces
- Batteries included; hook for below-scale weighing
Precise, repeatable results for teaching and testing
This model delivers reliable accuracy with a maximum capacity of 1200 g and a readability of 0.1 g, supported by a strain gauge weighing system. Linearity is specified at ±0.3 g, ensuring measured values remain consistent over the operating range. The clear LCD with 16 mm digit height presents readings unambiguously, so measurement literacy can be taught with confidence. These technical characteristics translate into dependable measurement results for classroom experiments, quality checks and light laboratory tasks, reducing uncertainty during teaching and routine inspections.
Easy handling that speeds up lesson preparation and dosing
Operation is deliberately simple: a 2-button control concept and a tare function (add-up capability) simplify recipe preparation and sample handling, reducing training time. The balance is start-ready with batteries included and provides around 40 h of battery life; a rechargeable battery is optional and, when used, can be charged in about 10 h. The compact, very flat housing and a 150 mm weighing pan allow installation on crowded benches, and a standard hook for below-scale weighing extends functionality for density checks or hanging samples. These features improve workflow and minimise set-up time in busy teaching environments.
Robust, versatile design for multiple applications
Constructed with a plastic housing and weighing plate, the instrument remains lightweight (approx. 0.52 kg) and is suited to classroom, vocational training, cosmetics testing, veterinary small-animal weighing and basic quality assurance tasks. Operating specifications (5 °C–35 °C; up to 80% relative humidity) define a practical usage envelope for most educational and workshop settings. For extended lab practice, the optional KERN YDB-04 density determination accessory is recommended, enabling basic material density experiments without additional equipment. The combination of portability, straightforward maintenance and accessory options makes this model a pragmatic choice where clarity and reliability are required.
