This analytical balance weighs to 0.001g and comes in three models: 200g (FA2003S), 300g (FA3003S) and 500g (FA5003S). It has a dual backlit display, a stainless steel weighing pan and a glass windscreen, and runs from a power adapter or four 1.5V dry batteries.
Features and benefits:
- 0.001g accuracy - fine enough for weighing small samples, additives and reagents
- Large dual screen with backlight, front and back displays - the reading can be seen from either side of the bench
- Counting, unit conversion and weighing modes, with units including g, ct and oz - one balance for counting and mixed unit work
- Five-side full-transparent glass windscreen with a top and side sliding door - shields the weighing pan
- Stainless steel weighing pan and platform, 90mm pan diameter - a solid surface for samples
- Low power warning, overload indication, level indicator and adjustable feet - set the balance level and see when it needs power
- Stability time of 3 seconds or less - readings settle quickly
- RS232 interface as standard, USB interface optional - connect to a printer or computer
Applications:
- Weighing samples and reagents in school and college laboratories
- Counting and unit conversion tasks using the PCS and UNIT buttons
- Weighing jewellery and gold items
In the box:
The supplier lists a universal power adapter as standard. The balance can also run on standard batteries (4 x 1.5V dry batteries); batteries are not stated as included. Choose the model and capacity in the options.
Note: This balance uses external setting with a reference weight. Keep the operating temperature between 15°C and 35°C, place the balance on a level, stable bench and choose the UK plug option.

A: An analytical balance is a precision weighing instrument that reads small masses to a fine step, here 0.001g, with a glass windscreen around the pan. This one covers up to 200g, 300g or 500g depending on the model.. Q: How does an analytical balance work? A: The sample is placed on the weighing pan and the balance shows its weight on the display. The stability indicator on this unit shows when the value has settled.. Q: How do you set an analytical balance with a reference weight? A: This balance uses external setting, so a known reference weight is needed. The TARE/CAL button on the operation panel is used for this; check the supplier's manual for the exact steps.. Q: How to use an analytical balance? A: Use the horizontal bubble and adjustable feet to level the balance, then place the sample on the weighing pan. Read the value once the stability indicator shows. The panel has ON/OFF, PCS, UNIT and TARE/CAL buttons.. Q: What is the difference between FA2003S, FA3003S and FA5003S? A: The difference is the maximum capacity: 200g, 300g and 500g. All three read to 0.001g and share the same pan size and body dimensions..
