KERN Precision Balance MPLS.420-3F — high-resolution graphic display, 420 g capacity

A precision balance with a graphic LCD and strain-gauge weighing system, designed for accurate weighing, reliable piece counting and compact workshop or laboratory installation

  • High resolution: 0.001 g readability
  • Wide 420 g capacity
  • Stainless steel 110 mm weighing pan
  • Graphic LCD with 15 mm digits

Accurate results for demanding measurement tasks

The instrument delivers 0.001 g readability and ± 0.004 g linearity, which supports traceable, repeatable measurements in quality control and component inspection. The integrated strain gauge weighing system converts load into a stable, calibrated output, reducing measurement drift over repeated cycles. This level of precision makes the balance suitable for fine dosing, small-part verification and processes where measurement uncertainty must be minimised. The technical specifications are optimised for industrial metrology and workshop environments where reproducibility and clear numeric evidence are required.

Durable construction for everyday workshop use

A stainless steel weighing pan and a compact footprint (210×345×100 mm) combine to create a robust, easy-to-clean instrument that fits a busy workbench. At 3.2 kg the unit is portable enough for flexible deployment yet substantial enough to remain stable during normal operation. Environmental limits (15°C–35°C and up to 80% relative humidity) ensure consistent performance within standard workshop and laboratory climates. The included plug-in power supply supports multiple regional plugs, offering straightforward integration into international facilities and shared test benches.

Counting, laboratory and inspection benefits explained

Counting applications benefit from a smallest piece weight of 50 mg in standard counting mode and 5 mg for laboratory counting, enabling reliable inventory checks and component batch control. The graphic LCD with 15 mm digit height renders measurements clearly, while the weighing pan diameter of 110 mm accommodates small vessels and trays without compromising stability. For buyers unfamiliar with technical terms: “smallest piece weight” denotes the minimum single-part mass that still yields accurate count results; lower values allow counting of finer components without manual recalculation.

Integration into a dependable supply chain

Choosing a unit from an established brand combined with Metav Werkzeuge’s quality filter supports predictable procurement and consistent service levels. Metav’s emphasis on accessible precision and central stock in Emmerich means reliable availability and clear technical guidance for industrial customers, workshops and specialist retailers. The instrument’s mix of high resolution, stable mechanics and clear visual feedback reduces measurement-related rework and supports faster decision-making on the shopfloor.

Supplied as a practical pack of five, this cover supports smooth workflow and low-maintenance operation. Order directly via Metav Werkzeuge or consult our technical advisors for application guidance. Dust cover ABS-A08 – protective cover for analytical and precision balances by KERN The dust cover ABS-A08 is a protective cover designed for KERN analytical and precision balances with a glass wind shield, preventing contamination and ambient light interference during sensitive weighing tasks. Protects against dust and light Compatible with KERN analytical balances Designed for balances with glass wind shield Supplied as pack of 5 Preserve measurement integrity with simple protection A lightweight protective cover reduces the risk of sample contamination and measurement drift, supporting consistent measurement integrity in laboratories and production areas. Dust particles and stray light can alter readings on highly sensitive instruments; by placing a cover over the balance’s glass draft shield, settling particles are kept away from the weighing pan and reflective light is minimised. This results in fewer repeat measurements and less time spent on corrective cleaning, which translates into improved process efficiency and more reliable data for quality control. Fast fit for analytical and precision balances The cover is engineered to fit balances that incorporate a glass wind shield, enabling quick placement and removal during routine operations. Compatibility with a wide range of KERN models simplifies stocking decisions for procurement teams: one standard accessory supports multiple instruments. The supply in a pack of five is practical for facilities running several weighing stations or for replacing worn covers without delay. The design prioritises unobtrusive protection so that normal workflow—placing samples, adjusting weights and reading results—remains straightforward. Practical benefits for workshop and lab routines Using a protective cover supports the longevity of sensitive weighing equipment by reducing particulate ingress and light-induced reading anomalies. For teams focused on throughput and traceable results, the cover contributes to operational stability and reduces the frequency of maintenance interventions. The accessory is a cost-effective way to protect investment in precision equipment while helping to maintain the reproducibility required in analytical work and small-batch production.
