KERN & SOHN EMB 500-1BE EMB Educational Balance, 500 g Capacity, 0.1 g Readability

KERN & SOHN EMB 500-1BE Educational Balance — 500 g Capacity, 0.1 g Readability — Classroom Balance Set Edition

Supplied as part of a classroom set bundle, the KERN & SOHN EMB 500-1BE Educational Balance shares the same proven specification as the EMB 500-1 — 500 g capacity, 0.1 g readability, and a 35-hour battery life — making it the right choice for schools equipping multiple benches with a matched set of instruments.

Key Features

• Class-set packaging: The BE bundle edition is designed for schools purchasing multiple balances simultaneously, ensuring a consistent and matched set for fair classroom experiments.
• 35-hour battery endurance: Thirty-five hours from a 9 V block means a class set of EMB 500-1BE balances can run through multiple consecutive school days before any battery needs changing.
• 150 mm Ø oversized platform: A 150 mm platform on a 500 g balance accommodates large vessels, giving students more flexibility in container choice during practicals.
• 0.1 g reproducibility: Consistent 0.1 g reproducibility across all units in the set means results between individual balances are comparable — essential for multi-group experimental data.
• 10-minute warm-up: Fast 10-minute warm-up allows teachers to set up a full class set of balances just before a lesson begins.
• 2-key simplicity: Two operating keys reduce training time for new student groups and minimize risk of accidental settings changes between student cohorts.
• M1-class external calibration: A 500 g M1 reference weight calibrates each unit in the set consistently, supporting a whole-class lesson on calibration and traceability.

Detailed Overview

The KERN & SOHN EMB 500-1BE Educational Balance carries the same core specification as the EMB 500-1: 500 g capacity, 0.1 g readability, 5,000-division resolution, 0.1 g reproducibility, ±0.2 g linearity, and 35-hour battery life from a 9 V block. The 170×244×39 mm flat plastic housing and 150 mm Ø plastic weighing platform are identical to the standard model. What differentiates the BE edition is its packaging and availability as part of a class set, ensuring schools receive uniform instruments. Warm-up time is 10 minutes, and stabilization takes 3 seconds. Calibration uses a 500 g M1 external weight. An optional mains adapter is available.

Applications

• Outfitting multiple benches in a new or renovated school science laboratory
• Replacing a full class set of balances to ensure matched instrument performance
• Teaching comparative mass measurement across multiple student groups simultaneously
• Biology, chemistry, and food technology practicals at 0.1 g resolution
• Schools requiring documentation of a matched and calibrated set of balances
