1) keep the unit clean, the internal senor is not sealed, so if something spills under the pan it can ruin the unit.
2) we don't recommend dissembling the unit to clean unless you know something got inside. Chances are you'll do more harm than good.
3) check calibration frequently using a weight that is near the capacity of the unit. Make sure the weight is an ASTM class 1 or better and comes from a reputable source with a certificate of calibration. Many weights can be magnetic.
4) Treat it gently, if you drop something on the pan or overload the unit you can break it. And if you break the glass it is expensive to replace
5) Remove the pan before transporting
6) A surge protector is a good idea to save the unit from power spikes.
What else can I help you with?
What is the least count of an analytical balance?
least count of a spectrometer is equal to 1' (one minute)
What are measuring apparatus in analytical chemistry?
Examples: analytical balance, spectrophotometer, titrimeter, coulometer, emission spectrometer etc.
Can you give 3 pieces of equipment used in laboratory measuring?
A measuring cylinder, a balance and a burette.
Analytical balance can it be affected by someone leaning on the table on which it is placed?
Yes, leaning on the table can cause vibrations that may impact the accuracy of the analytical balance by disrupting the delicate measurement process. It's important to keep the environment around the balance stable and free from external disturbances to ensure precise measurements.
Is beaker used in measuring exactly 15 g salt?
You need an analytical balance and a small beaker.
Who can you donate an analytical balance to It is probably 60 years old?
Any high school would be happy to have a true analytical balance! They are so expensive!
How do you weigh .0001g or less?
Use an analytical balance
What is the lightest weight which can be weighed in an analytical balance?
This depends on the balance model; for a typical balance this value is 0,1 mg.
Can you find the mass of a crystal?
Ye, using an analytical balance.
What is the least count of an analytical balance?
least count of a spectrometer is equal to 1' (one minute)
What is the first step in the analytical procedures process used in an audit?
The first step in the analytical procedures process is the development of an expected account balance.
What are the differences between electronic balance and analytical balance?
Electronic balances need no such known masses once they have been properly calibrated. Analytical balances are very accurate and until the advent of semiconductors were the only scales available.
What are measuring apparatus in analytical chemistry?
Examples: analytical balance, spectrophotometer, titrimeter, coulometer, emission spectrometer etc.
What is the difference between loading balance and analytical balance?
a top loading balance is use to weigh solid material when a precision of 0.1 g is adequate. If you want to get more accurate mass measurements or small amounts it's better to use an analytical balance. Also, analytical balances have capacity to weigh up to about 200 g with resolution from 0.0001 to 0.00001 g. Top loading balances, on the other hand, can weigh in excess of 5 kg with resolution from 1 to 0.001 g. As capacity increases, the number of decimal places normally decreases.
Can you give 3 pieces of equipment used in laboratory measuring?
A measuring cylinder, a balance and a burette.
Analytical balance can it be affected by someone leaning on the table on which it is placed?
Yes, leaning on the table can cause vibrations that may impact the accuracy of the analytical balance by disrupting the delicate measurement process. It's important to keep the environment around the balance stable and free from external disturbances to ensure precise measurements.
How do you properly clean an analytical balance?
To properly clean an analytical balance, use a soft brush or cloth to remove any debris or dust. Then, use a mild detergent and water solution to wipe down the surfaces. Be careful not to get any liquids inside the balance. Finally, use a lint-free cloth to dry the balance thoroughly before use.
