KERN EW 6200-2NM Precision Balance, 6,200 g / 0.01 g, tuning fork principle
KERN EW 6200-2NM: The indestructible classic with tuning fork technology The KERN EW 6200-2NM is more than just a balance – it is synonymous with long-lasting precision. As part of the legendary EW-N series, this model utilises the high-quality tuning fork measuring principle. Unlike scales with force compensation or strain gauges, which are often sensitive to temperature fluctuations or require long warm-up times, the EW 6200-2NM is ready to use straight away. Switch it on and start weighing – no waiting required. With a weighing range of 6,200 g (6.2 kg) and an extremely fine readability of 0.01 g , it bridges the gap between laboratory analysis and robust industrial scales. Why tuning-fork technology? No warm-up time: Whilst other precision balances need to be plugged in for up to 2 hours to reach thermal stability, the EW 6200-2NM delivers stable readings immediately after being switched on. Ideal for mobile use or laboratories where the balance is not in operation 24/7. Robustness: The system is extremely resistant to mechanical stress. The tuning fork system withstands shocks and overloads far better than electromagnetic force-compensation cells. Long-term stability: The calibration remains stable over long periods, minimising maintenance requirements. Features for everyday professional use Capacity indicator: A gradually lighting-up strip on the display shows you how much of the weighing range is still available. This prevents accidental overloading during weighing. Piece counting: Thanks to the high resolution, even very light parts can be counted precisely. The reference count can be selected (10, 30, 50, 100). Percentage calculation: Ideal for recipes. You can define the weight of a container as 100% and read off differences directly as a percentage. Data interface: The standard RS-232 interface allows connection to a PC or printer (GLP logging possible with a compatible KERN printer). Calibration and design The KERN EW 6200-2NM is calibrated externally. This means you use a defined test weight (available separately) to regularly check and adjust the accuracy (CAL programme). The large stainless steel weighing plate (180 x 160 mm) offers sufficient space for beakers or flasks and is easy to clean. A spirit level and levelling screws for precise levelling are supplied as standard.

KERN PNJ 3000-2M Precision Balance, tuning fork measurement system, internal calibration, suitable for verification
The KERN PNJ 3000-2M precision balance represents a high-end metrological system solution for high-precision weighing applications in laboratories, industrial quality control and in legally regulated, calibration-required environments. Based on the innovative tuning-fork principle, this measuring instrument combines outstanding thermal stability with mechanical robustness and extremely short settling times. Wherever reliable mass measurements up to a maximum weighing range of 3,200 grams are required in a professional B2B environment, this laboratory balance guarantees gentle handling of materials, efficient operation and process reliability of the highest standard. Innovative tuning fork measuring system and thermodynamic stability The metrological foundation of the PNJ 3000-2M is its highly advanced tuning fork measurement system (Tuning Fork Technology). In direct comparison to conventional strain gauges or electromagnetic force-compensating load cells, this system operates using an oscillating quartz tuning fork. By coupling the change in mechanical frequency to the applied load, a transient, digital measurement value is generated, operating with virtually no wear. The system is characterised by excellent resistance to fluctuations in ambient temperature, achieves a remarkable settling time of just around 3 seconds, and saves valuable waiting time during sequential measurement series in the demanding day-to-day laboratory environment. Automatic internal calibration for seamless GLP compliance A key functional feature of the balance is the integrated, automatic internal adjustment (indicated by the ‘J’ in the model designation). The system continuously monitors the thermodynamic conditions and, upon detecting a temperature change or at predefined time intervals, initiates a fully automatic calibration using an internal calibration weight. Alternatively, this adjustment process can be triggered manually at any time at the touch of a button. For quality management personnel, this ensures seamless GLP/GMP compliance, as the balance independently safeguards its metrological chain and reliably eliminates measurement drifts. Verifiable system architecture and ergonomic design The PNJ 3000-2M has a type approval for verification in accordance with European accuracy class II. With a verification value of 0.1 gram and a readability of 0.01 gram, it meets all legal requirements for use in pharmacies (compounding balance), in the precious metals trade or for official analyses. The balance is fitted with a generous, square weighing pan made of stainless steel (190 x 190 mm), which allows for easy and residue-free cleaning. A large, high-contrast LCD display guides the user intuitively through the menu structure and, via an integrated capacity indicator (bar graph), constantly displays the remaining weighing range to prevent mechanical overload whilst protecting the equipment.

KERN CCS 6K-6 counting system, reference and weighing scale, max. 6 kg
The professional duo for your warehouse: the KERN CCS 6K-6 counting system The KERN CCS 6K-6 (MPN CCS 6K-6) is not just a simple weighing device, but a highly professional counting system. Anyone who needs to accurately count large quantities of tiny small parts during stock-taking, in production or when picking orders often faces a problem: high-capacity scales are too imprecise for individual items, whilst high-precision scales cannot support heavy boxes. The KERN CCS counting system elegantly resolves this conflict by combining two specialised scales. The two-scale principle The system consists of two interconnected components: The reference balance (high-precision): This high-resolution counting balance (on a table) is used to determine the weight of a single, tiny part (reference weight) with absolute precision. The bulk scale (robust & heavy-duty): Place the large box or container containing the parts to be counted (up to 6 kg total weight) on this platform scale (e.g. on the floor or a low table). The system calculates the exact number of parts in a fraction of a second, using the precise individual weight from the reference balance and the total weight from the bulk balance. The result: no more counting errors for screws, sealing rings, electronic components or plastic injection-moulded parts. Convenient operation for fast working The entire system is controlled centrally via the reference balance’s terminal: 3 displays: You can see the total weight, the reference weight and the total number of items at a glance at all times. No hidden menus. Numeric keypad: For quick manual entry of known tare weights (crates, pallets) or reference weights. PLU memory: Store up to 100 items (including reference weight and tare deduction). Ideal for recurring counting tasks. Fill-to-Target (target count function): Programme a desired quantity (e.g. 500 screws per bag). The system emits an audible and visual signal as soon as the target value is reached. Robust industrial quality The quantity scale features a durable stainless steel weighing plate and an aluminium load cell, designed to withstand the rigours of everyday industrial use. Via the standard RS-232 interface, you can easily connect the system to a KERN printer or a PC to print piece count labels or stock-take reports. Areas of application Stocktaking: Significant savings in working time and avoidance of counting errors. Order picking: Precise filling of small parts into packaging. Production: Checking assemblies for completeness. Technical Specifications Model: CCS 6K-6 System type: Counting system (reference balance + quantity balance) Weighing range of the quantity scale (max): 6 kg System counting resolution: Extremely high (counting balance class) Memory (PLU): 100 item memory locations Displays: 3 x LCD (backlit) for weight, reference and quantity Keypad: Numeric (for entering tare and reference values) Weighing plate for quantity scale: Stainless steel (industrial grade) Interface: RS-232 (for connection to printer/PC) Power supply: Mains adaptor (battery operation often available as an option) Contents 1 x KERN reference balance (terminal & precision balance) 1 x KERN bulk scale (platform scale, 6 kg max) Connection cable between the scales Mains adapter Safety cover(s) Operating instructions Customised requirements & accessories To further optimise your processes, we recommend the appropriate label or dot matrix printer from KERN. We can also offer you a suitable signal lamp tower for visual ‘fill-to-target’ support. Do you require a DAkkS calibration certificate for your quality management system?

KERN ADJ 200-4 analytical balance, self-calibrating, 220 g / 0.1 mg
The best-value balance with uncompromising precision: KERN ADJ 200-4 analytical balance Weighing in the sub-milligram range is a daily, yet error-prone, challenge for any analytical laboratory. A brief draught when opening the door, the morning sun beginning to shine onto the laboratory bench, or the air conditioning switching on – these factors can alter environmental conditions so significantly that high-precision measurement results may be compromised. Standard basic balances would then have to be laboriously recalibrated and adjusted manually using expensive, external test weights. With the KERN ADJ 200-4 analytical balance (MPN ADJ 200-4), this time-consuming problem is finally a thing of the past. This model is the undisputed best value for money in the range of analytical balances, offering users the luxury and standard-compliant functionality of fully automatic, internal adjustment. You get absolute top-class precision with a readability of 0.1 mg (equivalent to 0.0001 g) across an impressive maximum weighing range of 220 g. Reliability thanks to intelligent automatic calibration The greatest technical and economic advantage of the KERN ADJ 200-4 is its motor-driven calibration weight, which is discreetly integrated into the housing. The balance’s electronics continuously monitor its immediate surroundings. As soon as the sensors detect a temperature change of ≥ 2 °C, the instrument initiates a calibration process completely independently and fully automatically. But that’s not all: even if the temperature in a highly climate-controlled laboratory remains absolutely constant, the instrument calibrates itself precisely every 3 hours on a timed basis for its own safety. For you as a user, this offers three key benefits: Location independence: You can use the balance in different locations within the laboratory or move it around flexibly without having to call on the testing equipment officer for recalibration every time. GLP/ISO compliance: Your measurements are guaranteed to be error-free throughout the entire working day and can be documented without hesitation for rigorous audits. Significant time savings: The morning routine of manually warming up, balancing and adjusting the balance using tweezers and test weights is completely eliminated. Wide weighing range meets extreme resolution With a capacity of 220 g, the balance stands out from smaller entry-level models. This high capacity is particularly crucial in day-to-day use when you are using heavy tare vessels – such as thick-walled Erlenmeyer flasks, bulky measuring cylinders or large beakers – yet still need to weigh tiny sample quantities in the range of tenths of a milligram with precision into these vessels. The balance responds in a flash and, thanks to its advanced force compensation technology, typically delivers an absolutely stable weight reading within just 3 seconds. This greatly speeds up routine tasks such as the calibration of micropipettes, the precise preparation of standard solutions for HPLC, or the formulation of gravimetric mixtures. Ergonomics and protection through thoughtful design A reading of 0.0001 g is extremely sensitive to even the slightest air currents. The KERN ADJ 200-4 is therefore fitted as standard with a spacious, easily accessible glass draught shield. This features three smooth-running sliding doors (left, right and top). This well-thought-out design allows both left- and right-handed users equally comfortable, ergonomic and shake-free access to the sample. At the same time, the robust housing made of cast aluminium, combined with antistatic plastic, prevents electrostatic charges from interfering with the highly sensitive sensor. Such charges frequently occur when handling powdery samples or when using plastic containers. The balance is operated via a logically structured, self-explanatory keypad with just 6 keys, so you do not have to navigate through complicated digital sub-menus. For precise horizontal levelling, the instrument features a clearly visible spirit level and non-slip, adjustable levelling screws on the underside. Connectivity and seamless documentation for your quality management system In certified, accredited or pharmaceutical laboratories, simply measuring weight is only half the story; seamless, tamper-proof traceability is just as essential. For this purpose, the analytical balance is equipped with a standard RS-232 data interface. Via this port, you can easily and reliably connect the instrument to an optionally available KERN Matrix label printer or an Ethernet adapter. This enables automatic, standards-compliant GLP/ISO report printing, including the current date, the exact time and the specific balance identification number. Furthermore, the balance performs a range of intelligent additional functions for you: in addition to standard weight measurement, the model is capable of percentage weighing (determining the deviation as a percentage from a defined target value) as well as the precise counting of extremely light small parts with a selectable reference count. Technical Specifications Weighing range (max): 220 g Resolution (d): 0.0001 g (0.1 mg) Settling time: approx. 3 seconds Minimum sample weight (USP): 400 mg Reproducibility: 0.0002 g Linearity: ± 0.0004 g Calibration system: Internal (motor-driven, automatic at ≥ 2 °C change or every 3 hours) Weighing pan diameter: 90 mm Materials: Stainless steel weighing pan, cast aluminium/plastic housing, glass draught shield Interface: RS-232 as standard (for printer or PC) Housing dimensions (W×D×H): 230 × 310 × 330 mm Net weight: approx. 5.0 kg Contents 1 x KERN ADJ 200-4 analytical balance including 3-door glass draft shield 1 x stainless steel weighing pan (Ø 90 mm) 1 x universal mains adaptor (including adapters for the EU, UK and USA) 1 x Detailed operating instructions in German Individual requirements & accessories An important detail for your rigorous quality management: even though the balance calibrates itself with high precision, according to many standards this does not replace regular, certified external verification! We therefore strongly recommend ordering the instrument directly from the factory with a DAkkS calibration certificate (formerly DKD). Do you often work with extremely dry, electrostatically charged powders that stick to the spatula? In that case, an external KERN ioniser is the perfect addition to prevent the sample from ‘flying off’ the weighing pan. Please feel free to contact our expert procurement service at any time to put together the ideal accessories – such as anti-vibration tables, matrix printers or calibration certificates – for your specific laboratory workstation.

Kern EWJ 600-2SM Precision Balance, 600 g / 0.01 g, Suitable for Calibration
The Kern EWJ 600-2SM is a compact precision balance for everyday laboratory use, with a weighing range of up to 600 grams and a readability of 0.01 grams. The balance calibrates itself automatically at regular intervals, every two hours as standard, without the need for an external calibration weight or user intervention. If you require a calibrated display for the same balance, you should order the conformity assessment in accordance with the NAWI Calibration Directive (2014/31/EU) at the same time as the balance. Subsequent initial calibration is not possible. Automatic internal calibration The EWJ 600-2SM features an automatic internal calibration system that recalibrates at standard intervals of every two hours. Reproducibility and linearity are 0.01 gram and ± 0.03 gram respectively, whilst the resolution is 60,000 parts per unit. Once the sample has been placed on the balance, the reading stabilises within 2 seconds. According to Kern, a minimum sample weight of 20 grams is required to achieve a measurement uncertainty of 0.1 per cent at k=2. Calibration optional: NAWI conformity assessment In its standard configuration, the EWJ 600-2SM is an uncalibrated precision balance.

KERN CPE 6K-3 Compact Counting Scale, 6 kg / 0.2 g, 100 PLU, three-display system
The compact solution to speed up your logistics: the KERN CPE 6K-3 counting scale In modern warehouse logistics, industrial manufacturing and wholesale, the accurate and rapid counting of items is an absolutely crucial factor in staying competitive. Whether it’s the annual, time-critical stock-take, the daily picking of customer orders or the precise packing of assembly kits in production – manually counting small parts is not only extremely time-consuming and labour-intensive, but also the biggest source of error in the entire process. Every incorrectly counted component inevitably leads to inaccurate stock levels, costly re-deliveries, frustrated customers or material needlessly wasted due to overfilling. To completely eliminate these risks and significantly speed up your workflows, KERN & SOHN has developed the high-precision and compact counting balance CPE 6K-3 (MPN CPE 6K-3). This professional measuring instrument combines the highest weighing accuracy with unrivalled user-friendliness and is the perfect solution for all businesses that need to count screws, electronic components, plastic injection-moulded parts or other uniform small parts on a daily basis. Ideal balance between load capacity and counting resolution The KERN CPE 6K-3 model is precisely tailored to the requirements of small to medium-sized components. It offers a generous weighing range of up to 6 kilograms. This capacity is ideal for placing standard storage boxes, small cardboard boxes or assortment boxes directly onto the robust weighing platform. At the same time, the device impresses with its high readability of just 0.2 grammes. Thanks to this high resolution, the scale is able to reliably register even very light individual items and, based on the determined reference weight, mathematically extrapolate the total number of items in the box with absolute precision. You save yourself the tedious task of counting by hand and, within a few seconds, receive a reliable, digital and verifiable result that takes your stock records to a whole new level of quality. The ergonomic three-display system for maximum clarity A key quality feature of a genuine, professional counting balance is its display. Standard balances with just a single display require constant switching between weight and piece count, which inevitably leads to confusion and errors in a hectic working environment. The KERN CPE 6K-3 solves this problem with its intelligent three-display system. The scale is equipped with three separate, highly legible and brightly backlit LCD displays. This ensures the operator always has a clear, error-free view of all three key parameters simultaneously: the total weight (gross or net), the average unit weight (reference weight) and the resulting total number of items. This system makes operation so intuitive and reliable that even seasonal temporary staff or untrained personnel can work with the scale accurately and at top speed after just a short induction. The item memory (PLU): The turbo boost for your set-up times If you regularly handle the same items in your business, you will quickly come to value the KERN CPE 6K-3’s integrated PLU (Price Look-Up or Product Look-Up) memory as indispensable. The scale allows you to store up to 100 different items directly in the device’s internal memory. For each of these 100 memory slots, you can save the exact tare weight of the corresponding standard packaging (e.g. a KLT box) as well as the precise reference weight of the individual item. When switching to a new order, simply enter the relevant item number using the spacious numeric membrane keypad. The scale immediately retrieves all stored values. There is no longer any need for the time-consuming process of re-weighing a reference quantity of 10 or 20 items. This drastically reduces set-up times between different picking orders and significantly increases throughput at your packing station. Fill-to-Target (target count function) for precise filling Another highly intelligent feature that saves you money is the programmable target count function (Fill-to-Target). For example, if you need to prepare sachets containing exactly 500 washers for sale, simply programme this target value into the scale. As you quickly pour the parts into the container on the scale, the device monitors your progress. As soon as the desired target count is reached exactly, the scale emits a clear audible and visual signal. This function is worth its weight in gold, as it reliably prevents so-called ‘give-aways’ (the costly overfilling of packs at your expense) whilst also protecting you from short weights that are likely to lead to customer complaints. Mobility without mains power and standard-compliant documentation Flexibility is crucial in a modern warehouse. The KERN CPE 6K-3 does not force you to carry heavy crates to the scales. Thanks to its integrated battery operation, you can simply take the compact scales with you to where the action is – right next to the high-bay racking, in the goods-in area or on the production line. The robust stainless-steel weighing plate is also easy to clean and can withstand the rigours of everyday industrial use over the long term. For businesses certified to DIN EN ISO 9001, the device features a standard RS-232 data interface. You can use this to easily connect the scale to a KERN label printer or your PC to print quantity labels, stock-take documents or GLP-compliant measurement reports directly and in a tamper-proof manner.

With a readability of 0.1 g, it is the most precise of the three CPB counting scales, which have weighing ranges of 6, 15 and 30 kg. The stainless steel weighing plate measures 295 x 225 mm, and the load cell is IP65-rated.Counting small partsThe balance calculates the total number of pieces based on the weight of a reference part. The reference weight is entered via the keypad, or the desired reference quantity is placed on the balance. Automatic reference optimisation gradually improves the average part weight. The minimum part weight is 1 g; under laboratory conditions, this is 100 mg. The counting resolution is 60,000.Three displays at a glanceThree displays with 20 mm high digits show weight, reference weight and total count simultaneously, without the need to switch between them. The count total memory adds identical counted items to the total count and total weight. If you only wish to weigh, you can switch from counting mode to weighing mode at the touch of a button; the balance then functions as a standard platform balance with a 6 kg weighing range.Target values and containersThe ‘Fill-to-target’ function allows you to programme a target quantity or target weight; an audible signal indicates when the target has been reached. PRE-TARE manually subtracts a known container weight in advance, which is useful for checking fill quantities. A tare tray (RFS-A02) is available as an accessory.Measurement values and designRepeatability of 0.2 g and linearity of ± 0.4 g apply with a stabilisation time of 2 seconds under laboratory conditions. The weighing system uses strain gauges; the balance should be allowed to warm up for 120 minutes before the first weighing.

KERN CXB 30K2 counting scale, stock-taking and order-picking scale, 30 kg / 2 g
The tireless professional for stocktaking and logistics: the KERN CXB 30K2 counting scale In modern warehouse logistics, during regular annual stock-taking or in the daily picking of production goods, time is an absolutely critical and costly factor. Counting small parts such as screws, nuts, sealing rings, plastic injection-moulded parts or electronic components by hand is not only extremely time-consuming but also highly prone to errors. It is precisely at this critical point in your value chain that the KERN CXB 30K2 counting balance (MPN CXB 30K2) comes into its own. As a robust, precise and extremely user-friendly specialist for counting large quantities, it transforms a tedious process that would otherwise take hours into a matter of seconds. This scale is the ideal tool for industrial businesses, wholesalers, workshops and all companies that need to determine exact quantities on a daily basis for dispatch or efficient stock management. Powerful combination of capacity and resolution The KERN CXB 30K2 model is characterised by its generously sized weighing range of up to 30 kilograms. This means you can easily place even very heavy Euro crates, fully packed cardboard boxes or larger storage containers directly onto the scale without reaching the device’s mechanical capacity limits. This high load capacity is combined with an exceptionally fine readability of just 2 grams. In practice, this means that the scale reliably registers even very light individual items and precisely calculates the total number of items from the total weight. This intelligent combination of strength and precision makes the CXB 30K2 the perfect all-rounder for an extremely wide range of components, raw materials and materials in demanding everyday industrial use. Maximum clarity thanks to the three-display system An outstanding feature of this professional counting balance is its ergonomic and excellently designed display concept. The device features three separate, highly legible and brightly backlit LCD displays. At a single glance, you can immediately see all the relevant parameters for your current operation: the first display shows the total weight of the goods on the platform. The middle display continuously shows you the exact reference weight of a single, previously weighed item. The third display – the most important one for logistics professionals – provides you with the resulting total number of items in the box in real time. With the KERN CXB 30K2, there is no need for time-consuming switching between different views or laborious navigation through complex digital sub-menus. Operation via the membrane keypad is designed to be so intuitive that even untrained staff, temporary workers or seasonal staff can use the device accurately and highly productively during stock-taking after only a minimal induction period. Smart functions for an optimised workflow To further speed up your picking, filling or packaging processes, the scale is equipped with a highly innovative ‘Fill-to-Target’ function (target count function). You can programme a desired target quantity – for example, exactly 500 screws for an assembly kit – directly into the system in advance. As you quickly fill the carton on the scale with parts, the device alerts you with a clear audible signal as soon as the preset target value is reached exactly. This effectively prevents the costly overfilling of packaging (so-called ‘give-aways’) whilst reliably protecting you from frustrating customer complaints due to insufficient delivery quantities. This system is complemented by the practical PRE-TARE function. If you know the weight of your standard storage container (such as a standardised KLT box), you can manually enter and save this tare weight using the numeric keypad. The scale automatically subtracts this tare weight, so you can immediately see the pure net weight and the exact number of parts contained within. Robust industrial design and unlimited mobility In harsh warehouse, dispatch and industrial environments, a scale has to be able to withstand a great deal. The KERN CXB 30K2 comes as standard with a large, easy-to-clean and hard-wearing weighing plate made of high-quality stainless steel, which can easily withstand heavy impacts, scratches and sharp-edged metal parts. Another absolutely crucial highlight for the modern logistics sector is this device’s unrestricted mobility. The scale features an integrated, high-performance rechargeable battery. This enables completely mains-independent operation for up to 200 hours. Instead of having to laboriously transport heavy pallets and crates to a stationary scale using a pallet truck, you can simply take the compact CXB 30K2 directly to the relevant storage location in the warehouse. This saves a huge amount of walking, reduces the physical strain on staff and makes the scale an indispensable, flexible companion for mobile stock-taking on key dates. A dirt-repellent housing and a safety cover included in the scope of delivery round off the professional package and guarantee a long, maintenance-free service life even in dusty or dirty working environments.

KERN ABT 220-5DNM analytical balance, dual-range, 82/220 g, 0.01/0.1 mg, single-cell
The premium model: KERN ABT 220-5DNM analytical balance The KERN ABT 220-5DNM is the first choice for laboratories that refuse to compromise. As a dual-range balance, it combines the best of both worlds: in the lower weighing range up to 82 g, it offers an extremely fine semi-micro resolution of 0.01 mg. As soon as this range is exceeded, the balance automatically switches to a resolution of 0.1 mg up to the maximum capacity of 220 g. This flexibility makes it ideal for demanding weighing applications involving standards, active pharmaceutical ingredients or expensive precious metals. Single-cell technology: the cutting edge of weighing technology Inside the ABT 220-5DNM is a single-cell load cell. Unlike conventional weighing systems, which are assembled from many individual parts, this cell is milled from a single block of aluminium. Its advantages: Stable temperature behaviour: The balance is significantly less sensitive to temperature fluctuations in the laboratory. Short stabilisation time: Stable weighing readings are available within approximately 4 seconds (at 0.1 mg) or 10 seconds (at 0.01 mg). High mechanical robustness: Corner load behaviour and shock resistance are significantly improved. Fully automatic internal calibration Precision to the 5th decimal place requires constant monitoring. The KERN ABT features temperature- and time-controlled internal calibration. Temperature: The balance automatically recalibrates itself if the temperature changes by ≥ 0.5 °C. Time: A routine calibration takes place every 4 hours. This guarantees you the highest accuracy and allows operation regardless of location, without the need to handle external test weights. Convenient features The large glass draught shield with three sliding doors ensures optimum access to the weighing chamber. An integrated dosing aid (high-stability mode) facilitates the precise weighing of powders.

Kern CIB 3K-4 Counting Balance, 3 kg / 0.2 g, Audible and Visual Alerts
The Kern CIB 3K-4 counts parts weighing from 1 g and weighs items up to 3 kg with a readability of 0.2 g. It also displays the count result via the colour of the backlight and the pitch of an audible signal. Kern recommends it for workshops for people with disabilities, for particularly noisy or quiet environments, and for workplaces with frequently changing operators.Colour and sound indicate the resultWhen portioning, dosing and sorting, the colour of the display changes depending on the count result, indicating ‘too few’, ‘correct’ or ‘too many’. The backlight can glow blue, yellow, green or red. The audible signal changes its frequency according to the same pattern. Both can be used individually or together, visually and/or audibly, depending on whether the workplace is noisy or quiet.Direct-access keys and memory20 freely assignable direct keys call up frequently used reference weights and PRE-TARE values. In total, the balance stores 50 reference weights and PRE-TARE values. The keypad can also be used to enter a desired reference quantity or a known reference weight. Automatic reference optimisation gradually improves the average piece weight. Three displays with 18 mm digit height show the weight, reference weight and total count; the count total memory adds identical items to the total count and total weight.Weighing and counting up to 3 kgAt the touch of a button, the balance switches from counting mode to weighing mode. Reproducibility and readability are both 0.2 g, linearity is ± 0.6 g, and the stabilisation time under laboratory conditions is 2 seconds. The warm-up time is 30 minutes. The minimum piece weight is 1 g, 100 mg under laboratory conditions, and the counting resolution is 30,000. The stainless steel platform measures 315 x 215 mm, and the load cell is protected to IP65.

The Kern ADB 100-4 is an analytical balance with a weighing range of up to 120 grams and a readability of 0.0001 grams. It is calibrated externally using a test weight via the CAL calibration programme. External calibration using the CAL programme Accuracy can be set via the CAL calibration programme using an external calibration weight. According to the data sheet, the calibration points are at 100 grams or 120 grams, using a calibration weight of accuracy class E2. A calibration weight is not included in the scope of delivery and is available separately. ADB or ADJ: two parallel calibration concepts Kern offers both ADB and ADJ in parallel. The ADB 100-4 calibrates externally using a test weight via the CAL programme, whilst the ADJ 100-4 calibrates internally and automatically, without an external weight. Accuracy and weighing technology Reproducibility and linearity are 0.0002 grams and ± 0.0004 grams respectively; the balance operates with electromagnetic force compensation. The resolution is 1,200,000 scale divisions. Once the sample has been placed on the balance, the display stabilises within 4 seconds. According to Kern, a minimum sample weight of 400 milligrams is required for a measurement uncertainty of 0.1 per cent at k=2; the warm-up time before the first weighing is 8 hours. Piece-counting function The ADB 100-4 also counts items. The minimum item weight is 10 milligrams under standard conditions and 1 milligram under laboratory conditions. This makes the balance suitable for use as a counting balance even for very light individual items. The tare range extends up to 120 grams. Glass draught shield and levelling The large glass draught shield has three sliding doors for access to the sample; its internal dimensions are 170 x 160 x 205 millimetres, and its external dimensions are 175 x 175 x 230 millimetres. The plastic housing has external dimensions of 230 x 310 x 330 millimetres. A spirit level and adjustable screw feet are included as standard and help to level the balance precisely. The stainless steel weighing plate has a diameter of 90 millimetres. Weighing units and display In addition to grams, the ADB 100-4 also displays carats, pounds and ounces. In carat mode, the weighing range extends up to 600 carats, with a readability of 0.001 carats. The backlit display has a digit height of 16 millimetres; operation is via six buttons on the control panel. Environmental conditions Permissible operating conditions according to Kern: 10 to 30 degrees Celsius, 20 to 85 per cent relative humidity, non-condensing.
