Please note that a calibration certificate for this device must be purchased at the same time by ticking the box at the top of the page. You cannot purchase this certificate for a balance or scale that has already been ordered.

What Are Precision Balances?

Precision balances are also known as top loading balances. They are typically able to accommodate larger sample sizes than analytical balances, however they are not as precise, and therefore won't return the same level of readability. Still, they are able to weigh relatively large loads with far greater precision than standard scales, making them ideal for chemical applications and manufacturing.

Applications for the Luna LBB 12001e Precision Balance

The Luna LBB Precision Balance has a decently sized square pan for holding larger loads, and is easy to clean after accommodating messy substances like powders. It is therefore suitable for carrying out vital tasks in chemical or biological labs, including:

• Weighing
• Parts counting
• Percentage weighing
• Dynamic weighing (e.g. liquids, animals)
• Determining density
• Checkweighing
• Cumulative weighing

How Do I Operate the Luna LBB 12001e Precision Balance?

With colour coded navigation and a bright, clear screen, the Luna LBB 12001e Precision Balance can be used with little coaching. For more information on the set-up and use of your Precision Balance, take a look at the PDF Instruction Manual below:

What Is the Capacity of the Luna LBB 12001e Precision Balance?
