Abstract
An electronic balance including a housing ( ), a weighing scale ( ), a windshield ( ), which preferably at least partially surrounds the weighing scale, and a display and operating unit ( ) which is connected to the balance housing. The connecting part ( ) between the display and operating unit ( ) and the housing ( ) consists essentially of a material with poor heat conduction properties. At least one vertical radiation protection plate ( ) is provided between the display and operating unit ( ) and the housing ( ), and the connecting part ( ) is configured in such a way as to impair air convection on both sides of the radiation protection plate(s) ( ) preferably to the least extent possible. This results in excellent thermal decoupling between the display and operating unit ( ) and the housing ( ).
