Laboratory Weighing Balances in Qatar
At Burgan Qatar, we provide a complete range of laboratory weighing balances designed for accurate, consistent, and reliable measurements across scientific, industrial, and educational laboratories. Whether you require an analytical, precision, or micro balance, our solutions ensure superior accuracy for your testing and research needs.
What is a Laboratory Weighing Balance?
A laboratory weighing balance is a precision instrument used to measure mass with extreme accuracy. Unlike regular scales, these balances are engineered for scientific and industrial environments where even the smallest deviation can impact research quality, product formulation, or compliance testing.
Where Are Laboratory Weighing Balances Used?
Laboratory balances play a vital role in multiple sectors:
Research & Development Laboratories
For chemical and biological experiments.
Pharmaceutical Labs
Measuring ingredients with micro-level accuracy.
Food & Beverage Industry
Ensuring quality control in formulations.
Environmental Testing Labs
Measuring samples like soil, air, or water particulates.
Educational Institutions
For teaching measurement precision and accuracy.

Types of Laboratory Weighing Balances
Choosing the right type of balance depends on the accuracy, capacity, and environmental conditions of your lab. Burgan Qatar supplies a variety of balance types to suit every requirement.
1.Analytical Balances
Analytical balances are high-precision instruments designed for measurements up to 0.1 mg. They often include a draft shield to protect samples from air disturbances.
Features:
- Ultra-high readability up to 0.1 mg (0.0001 g)
- Enclosed weighing chamber for accurate measurements
- Digital interface for data logging and consistency
- Internal calibration for precision
Applications:
- Chemical and pharmaceutical analysis
- Research laboratories requiring micro-accuracy
- High-precision formulation testing
2.Precision Balances
Precision balances provide slightly lower accuracy than analytical balances but are ideal for routine laboratory weighing tasks.
Features:
- Readability from 0.01 g to 1 mg
- Open pan design for easy handling
- Fast response and stable readings
- Tare and unit conversion functionality
Applications:
- Routine weighing and quality control
- Sample preparation in industrial labs
- Food and chemical testing environments
3.Micro and Semi-Micro Balances
For ultra-sensitive measurements, micro and semi-micro balances are used in biotech, pharmaceutical, and trace analysis labs.
Features:
- Exceptional readability from 0.001 mg to 0.01 mg
- Requires stable environmental conditions
- Built for trace and micro-sample weighing
Applications:
- Biotech and pharmaceutical research
- Environmental and trace element testing
- Advanced analytical laboratories

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What makes analytical balances different from precision balances?
Analytical balances offer higher readability (up to 0.1 mg) and include a draft shield, while precision balances are designed for routine lab tasks with readability from 0.01 g to 1 mg.
Q2: How often should a lab balance be calibrated?
Calibration frequency depends on usage and environment, but routine checks are essential. Many models include automatic internal calibration.
Q3: Can I use these balances for industrial samples?
Yes, provided the maximum load capacity supports your sample size. For heavier loads, precision balances are ideal.
