The Ohaus TJ611 Triple Junior mechanical triple beam balance has a capacity of 610g and an accuracy of 0.1g (also called readability). The balance is operated by positioning the 10g, 500g, and 100g sliding weights (also called riders or poises) along the three notched, tiered beams. Magnetic damping speeds weighing, causing the beam to come to rest quickly without affecting sensitivity or accuracy , while the spring-loaded zero adjust compensator prevents accidental changes to the setting and obtains precise results. An integrated security slot for locks and cables safeguards the balance from unauthorized use or theft. The stainless steel weighing pan resists corrosion from spills of most sample materials. The balance is manufactured to ISO 9001:2000 standards.SpecificationsMaximum capacity610gReadability0.1g Weight of scale3 lb.Units of measurementGram (g)Weighing pan, diameter 6 inchesBalance dimensions, H x W x D18 x 12 x 9 inchesFront beam configuration10g poise, 0.1g incrementsMiddle beam configuration500g poise, 100g incrementsRear beam configuration100g poise, 10g incrementsH is height, the vertical distance from the lowest to highest point; W is width, the horizontal distance from left to right; D is depth, the horizontal distance from front to back.Balances are measuring instruments used to determine the mass of an object, while scales are used to measure the weight of an object. The measurement results from balances are generally considered to be more precise compared to results from scales. Mechanical balances are the simplest type of balance, and use a lever and slide to indicate the measurement. Conventional balances are commonly used in offices, the jewelry industry, and in kitchens, and display results digitally, but are less precise than analytical balances. Analytical balances measure to a high degree of precision and accuracy (0.0001g or better), and display results digitally. These balances have a cover with doors to prevent dust and airflow from affecting the measurement. Moisture balances an...
