Electronic Analytical Balance

The analytical balance was first manufactured in 1945 and many innovations have been made over the years. Nearly all analytical balances in the market today are electronic. These balances are used for measuring weight to high degrees of precision, which is achieved through the maintenance of constant loads on the balance beams while subtracting mass on the sides where samples are added.

Load sensors are used to calculate the object's weight by using the principle of electromagnetic force compensation.

A number of things may cause electronic analytical balances to give inaccurate measurements because of their high precision. Users must take a number of steps to ensure accuracy of their measuring systems. These steps are related to the operators themselves, the equipment and environment.

Operator Considerations

  • Never touch the object to be weighed with bare hands, as this will transfer different contaminants like oil to the object, leading to error. Use either a pair of forceps or gloved hands to handle the objects. The most recommended types of gloves are those made of either cotton or powderless latex. Ideal forceps should be made of wood or plastic. If metallic forceps are used, they must be covered by a soft material to avoid the risk of scratches.
  • The object to be measured should be placed as close to the center as possible to prevent undue variation.
  • Maintain a good distance from the electronic analytical balance to avoid the risk of breathing into the balance chamber or onto the weight, as the resulting heat transfer can lead to errors.

    • Environmental Considerations

    Choose a stable environment where the temperature is maintained at around 20 degrees Celsius with fluctuations not exceeding one degree Celsius per hour. The humidity should range from 45% to 60% with fluctuations of less than 10% per hour.

  • The balance must be away from vibrations or any source of heat, extreme air currents or drafts.
  • The environment must be free of such contaminants as dust.

    • Equipment Considerations

  • Turn and leave the balance on for about 24 hours before taking measurements to give the electronic components time to stabilize.
  • Take sample tests and calibrate before use.
