Adam Equipment TBB 610S Triple Beam Mechanical Balance, 610g Capacity, 0.1g Readability

The Adam Equipment TBB610S triple beam mechanical balance has a capacity of 610g and an accuracy of 0.1g (also called readability). The balance is operated by positioning the 10g, 100g, and 500g sliding weights along the notched and tiered beams. The weights have an indicator in the center, and the beams are graduated to help ensure accurate readings and repeatable results. The balance has an integrated weigh-below hook for determining the density of solid samples. The stainless steel weighing pan resists corrosion from spills of most sample materials and the aluminum housing is sturdy and durable. The three included counterweights for weighing above capacity can be stored on the balance base. The housing has a built-in ruler, protractor, and conversion chart for various measuring applications. An integrated security slot for locks and cables safeguards the balance from unauthorized use or theft.The balance is manufactured to ISO 9001:2000 standards and, when used according to manufacturer’s recommendations, it is covered by a three-year warranty against defects in workmanship or materials.Specifications Maximum capacity 610g Readability 0.1g Repeatability (sd) 0.2g Linearity (+/-) 0.2g Weight of scale 3.8lb.

The measurement results from balances are generally considered to be more precise compared to results from scales. Mechanical balances are the simplest type of balance, and use a lever and slide to indicate the measurement. Conventional balances are commonly used in offices, the jewelry industry, and in kitchens, and display results digitally, but are less precise than analytical balances. Analytical balances measure to a high degree of precision and accuracy (0.0001g or better), and display results digitally. These balances have a cover with doors to prevent dust and airflow from affecting the measurement. Moisture balances analyze moisture content in a material sample, using infrared or halogen heat sources to dry the sample and then calculate the moisture content from the before- and after-drying weight, and display results digitally, on the balance, or transfer the information for display on a computer.Adam Equipment manufactures balances, scales, and related accessories for laboratory, educational, industrial, retail, and medical applications. The company, which was founded in the United Kingdom in 1972 and has an office in Danbury, CT, meets ISO 9001:2008 standards.What’s in the Box?Adam Equipment TBB610S triple beam mechanical balance(3) counterweights: (1) 500g, (2) 1kgInstructions
