Freqently Asked Questions About Precision Balances

What is a Precision Balance?

A precision balance is a lab instrument that measures mass and offers readabilities as fine as 0.001g. Some precision balances offer a draft shield for better protection from air drafts and dust. Precision balances without a draught shield are also known as top-loading balances. Precision balances are an excellent choice for general laboratory weighing tasks.
 

What are the key features to look out for when buying a precision scale?

When looking for a precision balance, the key features you need to look for are readability and capacity. Additionally, you should consider the calibration type of the model. Some precision balances offer internal calibration, while others only offer external calibration. Models that are internally calibrated are self-tuned with a built-in mechanism and you can schedule calibration on your downtime or overnight. External calibration requires calibration weights for verification, along with a certificate to prove your calibration weights are accurate.
 
Another notable feature to have is connectivity, so that you can connect to a PC, printer, or software programme. Many precision models come with a USB or RS-232 interface. Adam equipment also offers products like Adam Connect, which helps balances without a wireless option connect wirelessly between devices.

What's the difference between accuracy, precision and readability when looking to buy a Precision Balance?

Accuracy in weighing scales deals with how well the results match the true value of mass, while precision helps indicate whether the measurement is consistent in readings. Adam Precision Balances offer both precision and accuracy, with their readabilities as fine as 1mg.
