Introduction
Whether you’re setting up a lab, running a pharmacy, or upgrading your QC department, one key question always arises: How much does an analytical scale cost? The answer isn’t always straightforward — because pricing depends on features, certifications, accuracy, and application.
At Shree Shree Weighing Solutions, we offer analytical balances from basic to advanced, tailored to various industries across Gujarat. In this blog, we’ll break down the factors affecting cost, and how to make the right buying decision.
🧮 Average Price Range for Analytical Scales in India
Entry-level models (1 mg readability): ₹10,000 – ₹18,000
Mid-range models (0.1 mg readability): ₹20,000 – ₹35,000
Advanced models (internal calibration, 0.1 mg): ₹40,000 – ₹65,000
Premium pharma-grade (connectivity, 0.01 mg): ₹70,000 – ₹1.5 lakhs+
Prices vary based on brand, features, warranty, and certification.
🔍 Key Factors That Affect Analytical Scale Pricing
1. Readability (Precision Level)
Higher precision = higher cost. A 0.1 mg scale will be more expensive than a 1 mg model.
2. Capacity
Scales with higher capacity (e.g., 300g vs 120g) typically cost more.
3. Calibration Type
External calibration models are cheaper but require manual setup.
Internal calibration adds convenience and costs slightly more.
4. Certifications
NABL certification and Legal Metrology stamping add to cost but are essential for compliance.
We include both in our premium models.
5. Build Quality & Draft Shield
Robust construction, anti-static design, and high-quality draft shields improve durability and performance, especially in Gujarat’s dusty industrial environments.
6. Brand & Service Support
Some brands charge more due to brand value but may not offer local support. We manufacture and service all units locally in Ahmedabad, which keeps your cost lower in the long run.
🧠 How to Choose the Right Model
Pharma R&D: Go for 200g/0.1mg with internal calibration and NABL certification.
Colleges: Entry-level 120g/1mg models with external calibration.
Chemical labs: 300g/0.1mg with overload protection and draft shield.
Food testing labs: 200g/0.1mg with RS-232 for printer connection.
