This analytical balance weighs to 0.001g and comes in two models: the MK3103C with a 310g range and the MK5103E with a 510g range. It has an LCD display with backlight, a glass draft shield with a stainless steel pan, an RS232 port for a computer or printer, and runs from AC 220V 50Hz.
Features and benefits:
- 0.001g readability on both models - suited to small samples, reagents, powders and fine parts weighing
- Glass draft shield with five glass windshields and a push-pull door handle - keeps air movement off the pan while you weigh
- Large LCD with backlight - easy to read on a crowded bench
- RS232 interface - connects to a computer or printer; the Menu/PRT key sends data to the output device
- Multiple unit conversion - the MK5103E reads in g, lb, oz and ct, and the MK3103C offers a much longer unit list including g, ct, oz, ozt, lb and kg
- Tare/CAL key and Cou counting key - short press tares, and a long press for 3 seconds enters the setup mode used with the supplied weight
- Adjustable foot pads with a levelling foam indicator - set the balance level before weighing
Applications:
- Laboratory weighing of samples and reagents
- School and training science labs
- Workshop weighing of small components and materials
- Food, cosmetics and brewing ingredient measuring
In the box:
A weight for setting up the balance is included with the package.
Note: The power supply is AC 220V 50Hz with an EU type plug. Place the balance on a firm, level surface, away from draughts and vibration, and run the setup routine with the supplied weight before use.

Printing: Menu/PRT outputs data over RS232. Q: What is an analytical balance? A: An analytical balance is a precision weighing instrument that reads very small masses, here down to 0.001g. A glass draft shield around the pan stops air movement from disturbing the reading.. Q: How do I set up this analytical balance with the supplied weight? A: Long press the Tare/CAL key for 3 seconds to enter the setup mode, then follow the display prompts using the weight supplied in the package.. Q: How do I switch units on the balance? A: Press the Unit key to step through the available units. The MK5103E offers g, lb, oz and ct, while the MK3103C has a longer list including ozt, kg and dr.. Q: Can I connect the balance to a computer or printer? A: Yes, the RS232 interface connects to a computer or printer, and the Menu/PRT key sends the displayed data to the connected device.. Q: What is the difference between the MK3103C and the MK5103E? A: The MK3103C has a 310g range and a longer unit list, while the MK5103E has a 510g range and a stainless steel pan. Both read to 0.001g..
