Laboratory Balances & Weighing Scales for Analytical, Industrial and Field Use
Australian Scientific lists more than 160 laboratory balances, weighing scales and moisture analysers from A&D Weighing and OHAUS, covering everything from a $150 portable compact balance to a $17,955 premium balance. The range spans four classes: analytical and precision balances, compact and portable balances, industrial and platform scales, and moisture analysers.
Choosing a balance comes down to two numbers: the heaviest thing you need to weigh (capacity), and the smallest difference you need to see (readability). Everything below is organised around those two, so you can narrow down before you start comparing models.
