Triple beam balance
Instrument used to measure the mass of an object
The triple beam balance is an instrument used to measure weight or mass very precisely.[1] Such devices typically have a reading error of ±0.05 grams.
Its name refers to its three beams, where the middle beam is the largest, the far beam of medium size, and the front beam the smallest. The difference in size of the beams indicates the difference in weights and reading scale that each beam measures.
Typically, the reading scale of the middle beam reads in 100 gram increments, the far beam in 10 gram increments, and the front beam can read from 0 to 10 grams.[2] The triple beam balance can be used to measure mass directly from the objects, find mass by difference for liquid, and measure out substances.
