Analytical price balance: understanding price differences
The price of an analytical balance depends mainly on its accuracy, its maximum capacity, the presence or absence of automatic calibration, the options (touch screen, PC connection, counting) as well as the brand. For information:
- Entry-level models are around €800 to €1,200
- Mid-range models range from €1,500 to €2,500
- High-end models, such as those certified ISO or connected, often exceed €3,000
By choosing refurbished equipment from Rewake, you benefit from prices up to 50% lower than new equipment, while retaining the performance and guarantees essential for laboratory use.
Used analytical balance: an economical and durable choice
Investing in a refurbished, used analytical balance is an excellent alternative for laboratories on a budget or concerned about their environmental impact. At Rewake, each device is:
- ✔️ Tested and calibrated with certificate of conformity
- ✔️ Cleaned and refurbished in our workshops
- ✔️ Guaranteed between 3 and 12 months
This choice allows you to acquire a professional precision scale at a reduced price, while ensuring optimal and long-lasting operation.
Difference between analytical balance and precision balance
These two pieces of equipment are often confused, yet their uses are clearly different. Here are the main differences:
- Precision balance : resolution of 0.01 g to 0.001 g, used for routine weighing with moderate accuracy.
-
Analytical balance : resolution of 0.1 mg to 0.01 mg, used for fine weighing, in protocols requiring rigor and repeatability.
The analytical balance is therefore recommended for applications in analytical chemistry, biology, dosage of reagents, while the precision balance is sufficient for more general weighings (preparation of solutions, control of raw materials, etc.).
You can find our complete selection of laboratory scales to compare the two types and make the right choice.
Choosing an analytical balance: how to select the right model
The choice of analytical balance depends on the level of precision required, the nature of the samples to be weighed and the requirements of your business. Here are some determining criteria:
- ✔️ Minimum resolution adapted to your field (0.1 mg or 0.01 mg)
- ✔️ Sufficient weighing capacity (usually 80 to 500 g)
- ✔️ Automatic or manual calibration depending on the frequency of use
- ✔️ User interface: touch, connected, or classic
- ✔️ Compatibility with your LIMS software or traceability systems
At Rewake, each client benefits from personalized advice to choose an analytical balance model perfectly suited to their technical and budgetary constraints.
Laboratory analytical balance: in which cases is it essential?
In the laboratory , the analytical balance is used whenever a mass measurement must be extremely precise. This includes:
- 🔬 Chemical or physicochemical analyses
- 💉 Pharmaceutical formulation
- 📊 Quality control in industry
- 🧪 Preparation of standard solutions and reagents
It offers optimal reproducibility, fast response and excellent measurement stability, even for sensitive or volatile samples.
