Kern ADB Analytical Balances

Kern ADB Analytical Balances Overview

The Kern ADB range offers accessible analytical weighing with 0.1 mg readability and external adjustment. Standard gram models provide capacities suitable for routine laboratory samples, while a compact carat version is available for gemstones and jewellery weighing.

A three-door glass draught shield reduces the effect of air movement around the weighing pan, and the built-in level indicator with adjustable feet helps users set the balance correctly before use. The backlit display and simple six-key layout keep routine weighing clear, while the external CAL programme allows adjustment using a suitable test weight.

Why Choose a Kern ADB Analytical Balance?

The ADB focuses on the essential features required for analytical weighing without adding complex user-management or automation systems. This makes it suitable for organisations seeking fine readability, a protected weighing chamber and direct operator control over adjustment procedures.

Analytical Weighing for Education, Jewellery and Laboratories

Kern ADB analytical balances are suited to sample preparation, teaching laboratories, training, jewellery work and everyday analytical checks. The combination of compact dimensions, external adjustment and straightforward controls makes the range practical for users moving from a precision balance to 0.1 mg analytical measurement.
