The weigh chamber is surrounded by three layers of IR absorbing glass so that radiated body heat does not induce convection currents in the air. I worked on a balance that had nanogram resolution (mostly wishful thinking in that spec). It operated in a vacuum. 30 bit mass-to-digital converters are rather finicky beasties. It does not take all that good of a temperature sensor to detect changes in room temperature due to body heat (or fetching a beer from the fridge in the next room). You are basically a 100 watt space heater... even larger for the more corpulent folks. ============================== Temperature is indeed the killer. My best Raspberry Pis for time-keeping are RasPi-1 and RasPi-4, both of which are in an unheated cupboard not exposed to sunlight, on the north side of the house with indoor patch GPS antennas. http://www.satsignal.eu/mrtg/performance_ntp.php Cheers, David -- SatSignal Software - Quality software written to your requirements Web: http://www.satsignal.eu Email: [email protected] Twitter: @gm8arv _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
