Ohaus 710-00 Triple Beam Mechanical Balance Stainless Steel Pan 610g

Description

Product Overview

The Ohaus 710-00 triple beam mechanical balance is engineered for precise weight measurement in laboratory, educational, and research environments. Featuring a robust metal base and beam, the instrument provides a maximum capacity of 610 g with a readability of 0.1 g, allowing users to detect minute differences in mass. The removable stainless steel pan, measuring 6 inches in diameter, offers a corrosion‑resistant surface that is easy to clean and suitable for a wide range of sample types. The balance’s classic three‑beam design includes calibrated weight sliders that move smoothly along the beam, delivering reliable, repeatable results without the need for batteries or electronic components. Dimensions of 20 × 10 × 8 inches and a weight of 5 lb make the unit compact enough for bench‑top use while maintaining the stability required for accurate measurements. Built to meet the rigorous standards of scientific instrumentation, the Ohaus 710-00 combines durability, simplicity, and precision in a single, cost‑effective solution.

Usage

This balance excels in environments where reliable, hands‑on weighing is essential. It is ideal for chemistry labs conducting quantitative analysis, biology classrooms teaching fundamental measurement techniques, and quality‑control stations in small‑scale manufacturing. The removable stainless steel pan accommodates a variety of sample containers, from beakers and petri dishes to weighing boats and vials. Users can quickly tare the balance by resetting the beam to zero, then add or remove material to achieve the desired weight. The mechanical nature of the device ensures uninterrupted operation even in locations with limited power access, making it suitable for field work, remote research stations, and educational institutions with budget constraints. Its straightforward operation reduces training time, allowing students and technicians to focus on experimental design rather than instrument complexity.
