KERN & SOHN EMS 12K1 EMS Educational Balance, 12000 g Capacity, 1 g Readability

KERN & SOHN EMS 12K1 Educational Balance — 12 kg Capacity, 1 g Readability with Counting, Percentage and Summing

Accessible 1 g readability across a 12 kg working range makes the KERN & SOHN EMS 12K1 Educational Balance ideal for teaching environments where ease of use is as important as capacity. A 12,000-division resolution, piece counting, percentage determination, and recipe summing equip it for practical exercises across multiple science and vocational subjects.

Key Features

• 12 kg / 1 g working range: Up to 12 kg in 1 g steps covers the most common large-sample scenarios — produce weighing, bulk materials, and multi-ingredient formulation — in a single easily-operated instrument.
• 30-minute warm-up: Ready in just 30 minutes — significantly shorter than the high-resolution EMS 12K0.1 — the EMS 12K1 is well-suited to short lesson periods and workshops.
• Built-in piece counting function: Counting function supports inventory and parts-counting exercises, allowing students to derive quantity from mass with a known sample unit weight.
• Percentage determination mode: Percentage mode expresses sample mass as a proportion of a reference, useful for food composition, yield analysis, and chemistry ratio exercises.
• Recipe / summing function: Net-total recipe mode (Rez A) accumulates individual ingredient masses toward a target formulation — a practical skill for food technology and process science.
• 5-key operation: Five dedicated keys provide quick access to all functions without menus, keeping practical sessions efficient even for students unfamiliar with the instrument.
• 40-hour battery option: An optional 9 V block battery provides 40 hours of cordless operation, making the EMS 12K1 suitable for fieldwork or demonstration without a power supply.

Detailed Overview

The KERN & SOHN EMS 12K1 Educational Balance uses a strain gauge system with 12.000 divisions across 12.000 g, delivering 1 g readability with 1 g reproducibility and ±3 g linearity. The 200×280×65 mm plastic housing accommodates all functions within a compact unit. The mains power supply is included, and an optional 9 V block battery provides 40 hours of wireless operation. Warm-up is 30 minutes, stabilization is 3 seconds. Maximum creep is 4 g in 15 minutes. Units include grams, pennyweights, troy ounces, and ounces. The M1-class 12 kg calibration weight is external. The 5-key panel operates counting, percentage, summing, tare, and unit switching.

Applications

• Vocational food technology and hospitality courses requiring large-scale measurement
• Agricultural and environmental science education with bulk sample weighing
• Teaching multi-ingredient recipe formulation and percentage mixing
• General science practicals requiring a high-capacity, easy-to-use educational balance
• Demonstrations of piece counting and net-total accumulation at the classroom scale
