DESCRIPTION
Ohaus School balances are manufactured from die cast aluminum, are rugged and
easy to use. The balances are intended for use in primary and intermediate education
applications. They are easy to zero, produce quick readings due to their damping
mechanism, have four corned pans for easy pouring and are designed for specific
gravity measurements. Capacity of the balance is 2000 grams with a readability of 0.5
grams. The balance will reproduce precisely for years because of hardened steel knife
edges and steel bearings. Model 1200-00 comes equipped with an eight piece mass
set and Model 1210-00 is supplied with a four piece mass set. Models 1210-00 and
1210-50 utilize a beam with a sliding poise which introduces the measurement concept
commonly found on more advanced weighing instruments. Use of the sliding poise
eliminates the need for small masses which are easily misplaced. Models 1200-50
and 1210-50 are not equipped with a mass set.
