Grobet Precision Digital Bench Scale, 2000g x 0.1g with Parts Counting – 50-306

Measure jewelry components, small parts, industrial materials, and other items with this compact precision digital bench balance. Featuring a 2,000-gram maximum capacity and 0.1-gram readability, it provides detailed weight measurements for jewelry making, workshop applications, education, research, and general laboratory weighing.

The built-in parts-counting function adds convenience when working with quantities of similar components. Instead of manually counting every piece, the scale can help determine the number of items based on their weight, making it useful for sorting fasteners, jewelry findings, beads, and other small parts.

Designed to conserve valuable bench space, this balance combines a compact footprint with a higher weighing capacity than smaller pocket scales. It can operate using battery power or an available AC adapter, providing flexibility for portable or stationary use.

An automatic shutoff function helps extend battery life when the scale is not in use.

2,000-Gram Capacity with 0.1-Gram Readability

The 2,000-gram maximum capacity allows this balance to accommodate items weighing up to 2 kilograms.

This provides twice the weighing capacity of a 1,000-gram scale while maintaining the same 0.1-gram display increments.

The combination is useful for applications involving larger components, groups of small parts, or quantities of materials that exceed the capacity of smaller pocket scales.

Readability refers to the smallest displayed increment, not guaranteed measurement accuracy. For applications requiring certified accuracy, verify that the instrument meets the relevant requirements.

Built-In Parts Counting

The parts-counting function is especially useful when working with groups of similar small components.

Rather than counting every item individually, the balance can estimate quantities based on the weight of a sample and the total group.

This can be useful for:

• Jewelry findings and small metal components

• Screws, washers, and other fasteners

• Beads and craft supplies

• Small manufacturing parts

• Inventory sorting and organization

For reliable counting results, follow the manufacturer's sampling instructions and use components with reasonably consistent individual weights.

Multiple Weighing Units

The balance supports several measurement systems commonly used in jewelry, industrial, and general weighing applications.

Grams (g): Suitable for metric measurements of components and materials.

Ounces (oz): Useful for general weighing applications that use standard ounces.

Troy Ounces (ozt): Commonly used for precious metals such as gold and silver.

Pennyweight (dwt): A traditional jewelry-industry unit used when weighing precious metals.

These measurement options provide flexibility when working with different materials and recording weights in different systems.

Compact Design for Bench Use

The balance is designed to occupy relatively little workspace, making it suitable for jewelry benches, worktables, classrooms, and other weighing stations.

Its compact size also makes it practical for moving between work areas.

For consistent readings, place the balance on a firm, level surface away from drafts and vibration.

Battery or AC Adapter Operation

The scale can operate using battery power or an available AC adapter.

Battery operation is convenient when moving between workstations or working where an outlet is not readily available.

An AC adapter may be useful for stationary workstations where the balance is used frequently.

The AC adapter is an available power option; inclusion with the scale has not been confirmed.

Automatic Shutoff

The automatic shutoff function helps reduce unnecessary battery consumption.

This is particularly convenient for intermittent weighing tasks when the scale may remain unused between measurements.

Jewelry and Precious-Metal Applications

Jewelry makers and repair professionals frequently need to weigh materials and components during fabrication, sorting, and repair work.

This balance supports jewelry-related measurement units, including grams, troy ounces, and pennyweight.

Its 2,000-gram capacity provides additional flexibility for larger quantities and heavier items.

For commercial transactions involving precious metals, confirm that the balance meets applicable legal-for-trade requirements before use.

Industrial and Educational Applications

The combination of detailed weight increments, parts counting, and a compact bench format makes this balance useful for a range of general industrial and educational tasks.

It can help with comparing material weights, organizing components, and demonstrating measurement techniques.

For laboratory procedures requiring traceable or certified accuracy, verify the balance's performance specifications and calibration requirements before use.

Proper Use and Care

1. Place the balance on a firm, level surface.

2. Connect the appropriate power source according to the manufacturer's instructions.

3. Turn on the balance and allow the display to stabilize.

4. Select the desired weighing unit.

5. Place the item gently on the weighing platform.
