TRIPLE BEAM BALANCE SCALE OHAUS, Florham Park, NJ / USA (1980) ******************************************************************** Scale-1 = 0 ... 500 g ; Scale-2 = 0 .. 100 g ; Scale-3 = 0 .. 10 g This METRIC » Precision-Scale « weights here a souvenir: A can of "BERLINER LUFT" = 28.9 Gram This OHAUS SCALE is the classic weighing instrument used in science laboratories all over the world. Magnetically damped; 610 g capacity 0.1 g sensitivity; die cast aluminum body w. 3 aluminum alloy beams with sliding weights. Capacity is expandable to 2610 g with a weight set, attachable to the hooks at the end of the beam. HOW MECHANICAL SCALES WORK ... ?? What is the "Extension-Weight-Set" for an additional + 1 kg ?? ==================================================================== EXPERIMENT: 150 g Extension-Weight represents 500 g WEIGHT 2 x 150 g - " - SET -"- 1000 g WEIGHT 4 x 150 g - " - -"- -"- 2000 g WEIGHT For example: MADE AN EXTENSION-WEIGHT-SET OUT OF WASHERS ... 2 x 500 g WEIGHTS are in balance with the 2 x 150 g EXTENSION-SET. - When not used, it rests in the groove of the OHAUS under the beam. If the + 2 kg Weight-Capacity is needed: Make Extension-Weights with hooks on both sides to be chainable - Think in its limited height! impressum: ******************************************************************** © C.HAMANN http://public.BHT-Berlin.de/hamann 05/01/13 |
