Balance Single Pan
Balance Single Pan (Product Code: SLE/LB/05) is a four-beam mechanical balance used for weighing up to 311 g with 10 mg readability, and for density determination, in school and college laboratories. It is a popular item of school physics lab equipment in India because each beam carries a non-removable slider, so no additional masses are needed. It is made by OEM manufacturer Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) at its own factory in Ambala, India.

What Is the Single Pan Balance Used For?
Because the sliders stay on the beams, students weigh by moving them from the largest to the smallest graduation — 100 g, 10 g, 1 g and finally the 10 mg beam — and simply add the four readings. There are no loose masses to lose or mix up between groups, which keeps practical sessions moving. The two pouring spouts let a weighed powder or liquid be tipped straight into a beaker or flask, and the handle lifts the pan off without fingers touching the sample.
For density and relative density experiments, the platform housed in the base allows an object to be weighed in air and then while immersed in water, following Archimedes’ principle, without a separate stand. Return all four sliders to zero after each use and check the zero adjustment at the start of a lesson. Chemistry and biology practicals use the same balance for routine weighing, so one instrument covers several subjects.
OEM Manufacturer
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, known in the market as ScienceLab, is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of the Balance Single Pan. The four-beam balance, with its sliders, damping and density platform, is made and assembled at the company’s own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and supplied factory-direct to schools, colleges, dealers and importers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to buy a mass set for the Balance Single Pan?
No. The Balance Single Pan does not need a mass set, because its four beams with non-removable sliders cover the full 311 g capacity; students simply add the four slider readings to get the mass.
What is the smallest reading on the Balance Single Pan?
The smallest reading on the Balance Single Pan is 10 mg, taken on the 0–1 g beam. The other beams are graduated 0–200 g × 100 g, 0–100 g × 10 g and 0–10 g × 1 g.
How is density measured with the Balance Single Pan?
The Balance Single Pan measures density with a platform housed in its base: the object is weighed in air, then weighed while immersed in water, and the two readings give its density by Archimedes’ principle.
What is the pan of the Balance Single Pan like?
The Balance Single Pan has a stainless steel pan of 90 mm diameter with two pouring spouts and a handle, so a weighed powder or liquid can be tipped straight into a beaker without touching the sample.
Why is the beam of the Balance Single Pan magnetically damped?
The beam of the Balance Single Pan is magnetically damped, which brings it to rest quickly after a load is added, so students can take readings rapidly rather than waiting for long swings to die away.
Who manufactures the Balance Single Pan?
Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) is the OEM manufacturer of the Balance Single Pan (SLE/LB/05), producing it at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Quotations for schools in India and international markets come straight from the manufacturer.
Is a calibration certificate available for the Balance Single Pan?
A calibration certificate is not listed for the Balance Single Pan. Talk to our team through the contact page before ordering if calibration documentation is required, and we will explain what can be provided for this balance.
