What is the d value and what is the e value? What does it mean when we talk about e=d or e=10d?

d is the smallest division that a balance or scale can display.

e is the smallest interval on a balance or scale that can be used in a business transaction.

For example, a scale has d = 0.001 g, providing weight results to 3 decimal places. In the case that e=d, the scale can be used in business transactions measuring weight to 3 decimal places (0.001 g). In the case that e=10d, the balance can only be used in business transactions measuring weight to 10 x 0.001 g or 0.01 g.

My jewelry scales have a readability of 0.01 g. Does this mean I can weigh items as small as 0.01 g?

No. It is important not to confuse the readability of the scale with the minimum weight that can be weighed accurately on the scale. The minimum weight defines the weight of the smallest item you can weigh, while still meeting your desired accuracy requirements. The minimum weight of your jewelry scale is determined at the time of installation and is checked every time the scale is recalibrated. In the following document, you can find the typical minimum weight values that you can expect for each jewelry scale.

How can I find out if I need a Legal for Trade jewelry scale or a regular jewelry scale?

Legal requirements for weighing equipment vary from country to country. Therefore, it is important to check the local requirements of the area in which you do business.

What is the difference between a jewelry balance and a laboratory balance?

Jewelry balances have a special software to meet the needs of the jewelry industry. For example, they have special weighing units.

Is a Legal for Trade jewelry scale more accurate than a regular jewelry scale?
