The KERN PCD precision balance series offers high-resolution weighing with a separate weighing platform and removable display, providing maximum flexibility for laboratory and industrial environments. Designed for accuracy and safety, these precision balances are particularly suitable for weighing hazardous, toxic, or volatile substances in controlled environments such as fume cupboards or glove bags.

With weighing capacities ranging from 250 g to 10 kg and a readability of 0.001 g, the PCD series delivers dependable performance for quality assurance, laboratory analysis, and industrial weighing applications.

The modular design allows users to operate the display unit independently of the weighing platform, enabling safe and convenient handling of sensitive materials.

Key Features of the KERN PCD Precision Balance

Removable Display for Flexible Operation

The separate display and weighing platform design makes the PCD series ideal for specialized laboratory setups, including:

• Fume cupboards

• Glove bags

• Cleanrooms

• Hazardous material handling environments

This configuration allows the user to monitor results safely outside the working area while the sample is weighed inside the controlled space.

High-Precision Weighing Performance

KERN PCD balances offer fast stabilization and reliable results, with stabilization times typically around 3–4 seconds. High-resolution weighing capabilities ensure accurate measurements for demanding laboratory and industrial tasks.

PRE-TARE Function

The integrated PRE-TARE function allows users to subtract the weight of a known container manually. This feature is ideal for:

• Fill level verification

• Sample preparation

• Repetitive weighing processes

Programmable Weighing Units

Users can configure custom weighing units, enabling direct display in specialized units such as:

• Thread length (g/m)

• Paper weight (g/m²)

• Other application-specific units

This flexibility makes the PCD series suitable for specialised industrial and laboratory measurements.

Reliable and Stable Operation

Each balance includes levelling feet and a built-in level indicator, ensuring accurate calibration and stable operation.

Additional features include:

• RS-232 interface for data communication

• External weight calibration

• Protective working cover for daily use

• Optional draught shield on high-precision models

Available Models in the KERN PCD Series

The PCD series includes multiple models to meet different capacity and precision requirements.

Certain high-precision models include a draught shield to minimize environmental influences during sensitive measurements.

Typical Applications

KERN PCD precision balances are widely used in:

• Laboratory analysis

• Industrial weighing processes

• Quality assurance and quality control

• Pharmaceutical and chemical laboratories

• Hazardous material handling environments

• Research and development facilities

Their separate platform design and high-resolution measurement capabilities make them particularly valuable for specialized laboratory workflows.
