Mechanical triple-beam balance provides precision weighing results
Three sliding weights on the notched and tiered graduated beams help ensure accurate readings
Stainless steel 150mm (6-inch) diameter weighing pan is corrosion resistant
Durable aluminum housing includes a built-in storage slot for the included counterweights
Integrated ruler, protractor, and conversion chart for multiple measuring applications
The Adam Equipment aluminum triple beam mechanical 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 stainless steel weighing pan resists corrosion from spills of most sample materials and the aluminum housing is sturdy and durable. The balance has an integrated weigh-below hook for determining the density of solid samples. The three included counterweights for weighing above capacity can be stored on the balance base. The aluminum housing has a built-in ruler, protractor, and measurement conversion chart for various measuring applications. An integrated security slot for locks and cables safeguards the balance from unauthorized use or theft. Specifications Units of measurement Grams (g) Weighing pan, diameter 150mm / 6 inches Balance dimensions, H x W x D 160 x 505 x 110mm / 6.3 x 19.9 x 4.3 inches Front beam configuration 10g weight, 0.1g increments Middle beam configuration 500g weight, 100g increments Rear beam configuration 100g weight, 10g increments Counterweight configurations (2) 1kg, (1) 500g H is height, the vertical distance from the lowest to highest point; W is width, the horizontal distance from left to right; D is depth, the horizontal distance from front to back. Balances are measuring instruments used to determine the mass of an object, while scales are used to measure the weight of an object. The measurement results from balances are generally considered to be more precise co
