Description

The OHAUS Cent-O-Gram & Dial-O-Gram Balance Scale supports centigram accuracy and encourages student precision. This mechanical balance scale features a three-point base, special floating bearing principle, and beam design that eliminates the need for level adjustment. The Dial-O-Gram model replaces the two front beams with a vernier dial for faster reading results.

Key Features

Centigram Accuracy: Designed to provide precise centigram measurements with sensitive beam calibration.

Zero-Adjust Knob: Quick zeroing is achieved using a zero-adjust knob at the beam end.

Built-In Specific Gravity Platform: Recessed platform in the base supports additional weighing tasks.

Stainless-Steel Pan and Bearing Covers: Prevent rust and corrosion for long-lasting use.

Applications

Educational Labs: Perfect for classroom demonstrations of mass measurement and balance operation.

Teaching Mass Measurement: Ideal for teaching the principles of specific gravity and beam balance measurements.

General Mechanical Weighing: Suitable for various laboratory tasks requiring reliable balance scale performance.

Benefits

Easy Zeroing: Quick adjustment ensures the balance scale is ready for accurate measurement.

Accurate and Reproducible: Precision-ground knife edges and self-aligning agate bearings deliver sensitive, repeatable results.

Magnetic Damping: Slows oscillation to produce stable readings quickly.

FAQs

What is the Itin Scale Balance Dec‑O‑Gram Ohaus 3600?

The Dec‑O‑Gram Ohaus 3600 is a mechanical balance scale offering centigram accuracy (0.01 g). It features a vernier dial and stainless‑steel weighing pan for precision weighing without electronics. This classic analog design is ideal for teaching mass measurement and basic laboratory weighing tasks.

How does this mechanical balance work?

This balance uses a beam and dial system with a self‑aligning beam design and magnetic damping to reduce oscillation. The vernier dial replaces front beams for quicker readings. Zeroing is achieved with a zero‑adjust knob for rapid, accurate setup without level adjustments.

What level of precision does it provide?

The Ohaus Dial‑O‑Gram balance delivers 0.01 g readability, supporting centigram accuracy for fine measurements. Its mechanical design provides repeatable results and clear analog feedback via the dial and notched beams.

What materials is this scale made from?

This balance features stainless‑steel pan and bearing covers to resist rust and corrosion. The base and beam assembly use quality metal construction with precision ground components, ensuring durability and longevity in lab or classroom use.

Where is this balance typically used?

This mechanical balance is ideal for educational labs, teaching students about mass measurement and specific gravity principles. It’s also suited for general laboratory weighing where simple, reliable analog measurement is preferred.
