Adam Equipment, a worldwide manufacturer of high-quality and affordable electronic scales and balances, offers its Core Compact Balance series for the classroom and general laboratory use. Ready to work right out of the box, the Core offers speed, performance and value in a compact balance.

With three-point ShockProtect overload protection, Core balances are the best choice for durability and utility. The rugged and compact Core balances come in seven models and are designed for easy storage when space is limited, making them perfect for the classroom setting. The removable draft shield, standard on 120mm pan size units, provides added accuracy, plus allows the Core to be stacked for compact storage.
The Core works with either a supplied AC adapter or operates on six AA batteries, making it extremely portable and useful for fieldwork. It is also equipped with auto power-off to save battery life. The Core is extremely affordable and comes with a two-year warranty, large backlit digital easy-to-read display, color-coded dual-tare keypad and a removable stainless steel pan for easy cleaning.
Additional useful features include full-range tare, zero tracking, simple four-button operation, below-balance weighing and external calibration. Versatility is found in its nine units of measurement: Grams, Kilograms, Carats, Pounds, Ounces, Grains, Drams, Taels and Newtons.
The Core also has a handy security feature - a slot that allows the use of a standard Kensington-type lock and cable to prevent theft.
