A balance that performs in an enclosed compartment with no air currents to disturb is called an analytical balance.
Analytical balances are instruments used for precise and determination of mass of matter. They are accurate and very precise instruments. They require a draft-free location on a solid bench that is free of vibrations.
Analytical balances of today are digital and have built in calibration weights to maintain accuracy. Older versions usually require to be manually calibrated using specific standard weights.
