KERN & SOHN 572-49 Precision Balance, 16 kg Capacity, 0.0001 kg Readability, RS-232 / USB

KERN & SOHN 572-49 Precision Balance — 16 kg Capacity, 0.0001 kg Readability

For laboratories that require 0.0001 kg resolution across a full 16 kg weighing range, KERN & SOHN 572-49 Precision Balance delivers reliable strain-gauge accuracy in a durable cast-aluminium housing. KERN & SOHN 572-49 Precision Balance includes dual RS-232 / USB interfaces, an integrated level indicator, and adjustable levelling feet for accurate, repeatable bench setups.

Key Features

• 16 kg at 0.0001 kg Readability: High-resolution strain-gauge measurement across the full range supports small-mass determinations and larger-batch weighing alike.
• Cast-Aluminium Housing (180×310×85 mm): Greater rigidity and vibration resistance than plastic alternatives, protecting accuracy in active laboratory environments.
• RS-232 / USB Dual Interface: Standard serial and USB ports integrate with PCs, printers, and LIMS without additional adapters.
• Level Indicator & Adjustable Feet: On-board bubble level and four adjustable feet confirm correct horizontal positioning — a prerequisite for analytical accuracy.
• Advanced Function Suite: Pre-tare, sum memory, percentage determination, tolerance weighing, and hold function support formulation, QC, and statistics workflows.
• Stainless Steel Pan ( mm Ø): Corrosion-resistant surface cleans easily and maintains integrity through repeated reagent contact.
• External Calibration: Use a traceable 5 kg (F1); 10 kg (F1) reference weight to calibrate at multiple points and confirm in-specification performance.

Detailed Overview

KERN & SOHN 572-49 Precision Balance achieves 0.0001 kg reproducibility and ± 0.0003 kg linearity, backed by 160.000 internal counts for reliable piece-counting and percentage calculations. The 2 s stabilization time maintains throughput during batch runs, while the 120 min warm-up period ensures thermal equilibrium before demanding measurements. Dual RS-232 and USB ports stream data to external devices simultaneously, and the 7-segment LED backlit LCD with 5-key panel keeps navigation simple. Operating range spans -10° to 40°C, covering standard lab and light-industrial conditions.

Applications

• Analytical and preparative chemistry sample weighing
• Quality control check-weighing in pharmaceutical and food production
• R&D material characterisation and formulation development
• Educational laboratory demonstrations and experiments
• Incoming goods inspection and component verification
