TORSION And what difference it makes! You can now make three times as many weighings per hour as before with Torsion's new Dial Balance. Here's why: Conventional laboratory balances use a graduated beam and slide weight for "fine" weighing after, the weight has been determined to within 1 gram. Under the old procedure the balance is arrested, slide weight positioned, balance released, position of indicator noted, balance arrested again, slide weight repositioned and so on until t h e weight is determined within .01 gram. All this time consuming tf cut-and-try" procedure if» replaced with a simple graduated dial which can be turned without arresting the oil-damped balance. This means that the time consuming part of the weighing (below one gram) can be "dialed-in"—and in H the time.

Unconditional Guarantee In keeping with Torsion's Million-Plus construction, the new Dial mechanism retains its original accuracy after more than a million weighings. That's why Torsion Balance has unconditionally guaranteed the entire Dial mechanism. DLT2, shown above, has a capacity of 120 grams, and a sensibility reciprocal of 10 mgs. (10 mgs. moves the rest point one division). DLT2-1 has the same specifications but is equipped with a scoop for seeds or other bulky material.
