KERN & SOHN EFS 500-2 EFS Educational Balance, 500 g Capacity, 0.01 g Readability

KERN & SOHN EFS 500-2 Educational Balance — 500 g Capacity, 0.01 g Readability

Built for daily classroom use, the KERN & SOHN EFS 500-2 Educational Balance combines a 500 g capacity with simple two-key operation that students master quickly. Offering a 500 g capacity, 0.01 g readability, and battery or adapter power, the KERN & SOHN EFS 500-2 Educational Balance suits exercises from simple mass comparisons to percentage determination and unit conversion.

Key Features

• Genuine 0.01 g readability: Students observe real measurement principles — not toy-scale approximations — bridging theory and practice in a single exercise.
• Two-key simplicity: On/Tare and Unit keys control the entire balance, so lessons start without navigating complex menus.
• Manual multi-tare: Weighing successive samples into the same container is straightforward, teaching a key practical technique used in chemistry and biology labs.
• Battery and adapter power: A 4×1.5 V AA supply enables portable use on demonstration desks; a universal adapter (100-240 V AC) suits bench positions near sockets.
• Multiple weighing units: Switches between g, ozt, lb, and oz, enabling cross-unit exercises without additional equipment.
• Compact 145×205×46.5 mm footprint: The slim plastic body fits neatly on a student desk alongside experiment materials.
• Single-point external calibration: Calibrate the whole class set with one reference weight (500 g), keeping preparation time before lessons to a minimum.

Detailed Overview

The KERN & SOHN EFS 500-2 Educational Balance is a strain-gauge balance optimized for school practicality. Its 145×205×46.5 mm body accepts battery or adapter power for cable-free portability. The 500 g capacity suits everyday objects — rocks, produce, liquids in containers — and 0.01 g readability gives results precise enough for introductory chemistry work. A 50.000-step LCD stabilizes in approximately 2.5 seconds. Linearity is ± 0.03 g, reproducibility 0.01 g. Single-point calibration at 500 g keeps a class set adjusted with minimal effort. Warm-up time is 120 min.

Applications

• Mass measurement in primary and secondary science curricula
• Introductory chemistry and biology experiments requiring accurate sample weighing
• Biology fieldwork and ecology sampling that demands portable, battery-powered operation
• Food science demonstrations comparing ingredient masses
• Cross-unit conversion exercises in mathematics and physical sciences
