KERN PLS 1200-3A precision balance — 1,200 g range, 0.001 g readability

The KERN PLS 1200-3A is a precision balance designed for laboratory, research and jewellery testing applications, combining a large weighing range with high resolution and a user-friendly graphic display

  • 0.001 g readability for fine samples
  • 1,200 g weighing range for larger batches
  • Graphic LCD with clear guided menus
  • Integrated recipe database for 99 recipes

Accurate measurement for demanding laboratory tasks

The instrument delivers laboratory-grade results thanks to 0.001 g readability and a reproducibility of 0.001 g, which together enable precise quantification of small masses and consistent batch-to-batch comparison. This degree of resolution is beneficial in research, environmental analysis and precious-metal testing, where even minor deviations affect outcomes. The large 1,200 g capacity reduces the need for multiple balances when working with mixed sample sizes, supporting more efficient sample handling.

Streamlined dosing and recipe control for repeatable processes

A built-in recipe database stores up to 99 recipes with up to 20 components each, allowing standard operating procedures to be reproduced quickly and without ambiguity. The guided menus on the graphic LCD present clear text prompts in multiple languages, reducing training time and user errors. The integrated dosing aid (high-stability mode and selectable filters) supports precise addition of components, turning manual weighing into a controlled step in a traceable production or analysis workflow.

Robust design and traceable accuracy for quality assurance

The balance features a stainless steel weighing pan and a ring-shaped wind shield supplied as standard to protect measurements from drafts; the weighing chamber measures Ø×H 150×60 mm while the pan diameter is 110 mm. The force-compensation weighing system contributes to stable readings and the instrument’s linearity ±0.003 g ensures measurements stay within tight tolerances across the full range. A CAL calibration programme is provided for adjusting accuracy; certified external weights are available as optional accessories for traceable calibration.

Practical supply and trusted partnership for long-term use

The instrument supports practical laboratory conditions with an operating temperature range of 15°C–35°C and a maximum relative humidity of 80%. Multilingual display guidance and internal memory for complete recipes simplify documentation and handover between operators. Metav Werkzeuge maintains a quality-filtered stock in Emmerich and offers decades of precision expertise, which helps ensure reliable supply and accessory availability for workshops and specialist laboratories across Europe.
