Precise measurements that support routine decisions
The compact balance delivers a 600 g weighing range with a readability of 0.01 g, ensuring reliable detection of small mass changes during routine analyses. The instrument uses a strain-gauge weighing system, a well-established technology that converts mechanical load into an electrical signal for stable measurement results. Stated reproducibility of 0.01 g and a linearity of ±0.03 g provide a verifiable basis for quality-control procedures, while the fast response display helps reduce waiting times between successive measurements. These technical parameters make the instrument suitable where repeatable, comparable values are required for documentation and process control.
Built to streamline handling and inspection tasks
Designed with an intuitive KERN operating philosophy, each principal function has its own key for direct access, which accelerates workflows such as taring, mode selection and data capture. The balance features Checkweighing with a visual and acoustic tolerance indicator to support portioning, dosing and sorting tasks; a rising bargraph shows the remaining load capacity at a glance. Piece-counting is supported with minimum recognition thresholds of 20 mg for laboratory counting and 200 mg for standard counting, aiding inventory and sample preparation operations. A clear LCD with 15 mm digit height ensures rapid legibility of results even under busy bench conditions.
Compact construction with practical accessories for dependable results
With external dimensions of 210×315×90 mm and a weigh pan diameter of 120 mm, the unit occupies minimal bench space while offering a protected weighing chamber (B×T×H 140×150×65 mm) via a removable draft shield. The housing is made of robust plastic paired with a stainless-steel weighing pan for routine cleaning and chemical resistance where appropriate. Levelling is simplified by an integrated bubble level and adjustable feet, enabling exact setup and thereby improving repeatability. The balance is powered from 100–240 V (50/60 Hz) and is supplied with CH, EURO, UK and US adapters, which facilitates rapid deployment in different laboratory environments.
Applications and benefits for laboratory and production environments
Engineered for laboratory applications, industrial tasks and quality control, this precision instrument supports rapid decision-making through its fast-display behaviour and dedicated checkweighing controls. The compact format and included adapters make it suitable for mobile workstations or small-scale production benches where space is limited. By combining measured accuracy with practical handling features, the balance reduces time spent on repetitive weighing operations and improves traceability of results for process documentation.
