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.
