ALS Analytical Balance Series – Fast, Precise Laboratory Weighing

The KERN ALS Analytical Balance Series provides rapid, accurate, and efficient analytical weighing for laboratories, research facilities, pharmaceutical environments, and industrial quality control. Designed for precision and ease of use, the ALS series combines high-capacity performance with an intuitive graphic display, ensuring reliable results for demanding laboratory tasks.

With a fast stabilization time of approximately 4 seconds, these analytical balances deliver quick and stable measurements to improve workflow efficiency. The multilingual user interface (DE, EN, FR, IT, ES, PT) allows easy operation for international laboratory teams. At the same time, the compact footprint makes the ALS series ideal for laboratories with limited bench space.

The ALS balances feature the Adjusting Program CAL, enabling quick and accurate calibration using an external test weight (sold separately). This ensures consistent measurement accuracy and dependable performance across different laboratory environments.

For improved productivity, the ALS series includes checkweighing with tolerance limits, helping streamline portioning, dispensing, and grading processes. A dosage aid with high-stability mode and adjustable filter settings enhances precision when weighing sensitive materials. The built-in recipe function with internal memory stores ingredient names and target values, guiding users step-by-step through formulation and weighing procedures.

The balances also feature an ergonomically optimized keypad for comfortable use by both left- and right-handed operators. A large glass draught shield with three sliding doors provides convenient access to the weighing chamber while minimizing air disturbance. The compact design and included protective working cover ensure durability and long-term reliability in busy laboratory environments.
