The Cahn GRAM Electrobalance has a platinum band instead of knife edges, for better performance and reliability. No routine maintenance to remember... or forget. So rugged and immune to its envi ronment, you can use it where you need it; so stable it is used for long term experi ments; and so well built it is used in high vacuum and corrosive atmospheres. It has earned a reputation for reliability in thousands of laboratories. So easy to use that anyone can be trusted to use it. So fast that no one will want to use anything else. Complete weighings take a fraction of a minute and the Electrobalance reads directly in milli grams or micrograms. You can weigh small samples with a precision of one-tenth microgram (10~7 grams), weigh samples up to one gram. Eleven ranges let you use this one balance for a variety of tasks which previously required several different instruments. Looking for a better balance? Get a Cahn GRAM Electrobalance.
