Kern ALJ Analytical Balances
Kern ALJ Analytical Balances Overview
The Kern ALJ range includes analytical and semi-micro balances designed for laboratories that need fine readability alongside greater weighing capacity. Models extend up to 510 g, with options offering 0.1 mg, 0.01 mg or dual-range readability for detailed formulation and sample preparation.
Automatic internal adjustment supports consistent operation at the installation location. A graphical multilingual display provides guided access to recipe weighing, tolerance measurement and dosage functions, while the internal recipe database can store multiple formulations with named ingredients and target values.
Why Choose a Kern ALJ Analytical Balance?
The ALJ range is particularly useful for laboratories that regularly weigh containers, mixtures or larger samples that exceed the capacity of many analytical balances. GLP/ISO record output, a three-door draught shield and optional density or pipette-related accessories further extend its use in controlled laboratory procedures.
High-Capacity Analytical and Semi-Micro Weighing
Kern ALJ analytical balances are suited to formulation, pharmaceutical preparation, quality control, pipette testing and research. The range combines higher-capacity measurement with internal adjustment and detailed recipe management for laboratories that need both weighing flexibility and structured data output.
